About Wellness Center
With over 25 years of global expertise in Ayurveda, Softouch has proudly partnered with leading hospitality brands such as Kempinski, Damac, Le Méridien, and Grecotel but now we only run operations in Kerala. A family-run enterprise, the village features just 12 exclusive rooms set amidst a forest-like atmosphere, ensuring privacy, peace, and a deep connection with nature.
Softouch is NABH-accredited and licensed as an Ayurveda hospital, guaranteeing the highest standards of safety and care. Under the guidance of three qualified Ayurvedic doctors and ten skilled therapists, guests experience personalised wellness programs including Panchakarma detox, rejuvenation, stress relief, weight management, and spine care. Prior to arrival, each guest receives a complimentary online consultation with our Senior Ayurveda Doctor to design a tailored treatment plan. All therapies use high-quality, organic oils and freshly prepared herbal formulations.
Beyond treatments, the resort offers an enriching connection with nature through its herbal gardens, open spaces, and riverside deck. The property features a rich canopy of trees and plants such as teak, mahogany, mangosteen, rambutan, nutmeg, and pepper. Guests can enjoy a 1.5 km paved garden path for walks or cycling, kayaking on the river, fishing, bird watching, swimming, badminton, or indoor games including billiards, carrom, and chess. Pottery sessions are hosted thrice a month, and the home theatre room is available for a relaxing movie evening.
More than just a stay, Softouch offers a transformative journey—restoring harmony between body, mind, and spirit. With its authenticity, expertise, and natural serenity, it stands among Kerala’s most distinctive Ayurveda destinations for true healing and renewal.
