The Postcard Hotel announces the opening of its latest property, The Postcard Ayurveda Retreat, Old Goa – a Sitaram Ayurveda Experience, located in a UNESCO-recognised heritage setting.
Overlooking hundreds of acres of peaceful reserve forests, this one-of-a-kind retreat is fully focused on wellness, in partnership with Sitaram Ayurveda’s 104-year-old healing tradition. Every stay here is an intimate journey of restoration, where authentic Ayurveda supports each guest’s unique path to better health and lifelong wellbeing.
“With The Postcard Ayurveda Retreat, we have created a pioneering wellness sanctuary in India that offers a comprehensive experience to address unique lifestyle needs and concerns of each guest. The stays here start from minimum 7 nights and are all-inclusive healing journeys focused on providing highly personalised programmes for medical wellness, rather than a recreational leisure escape. In essence, the retreat seamlessly combines transformative experiential luxury with authentic Ayurveda for deep restoration,” says Kapil Chopra, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, The Postcard Hotel.
Surrounded by pristine forests in Old Goa, the retreat features six well-designed rooms, each with a private balcony offering views of the gardens and valley.
“The sense of stillness and seclusion of Old Goa has been the focal point in conceptualising The Postcard Ayurveda Retreat,” adds Kapil Chopra.
A wellness experience guided by authentic Ayurveda
Each stay starts with a personalised consultation with resident physicians, who then create a programme tailored to individual constitutions (doshas) and health needs. Attentive care and medical insight at every step – offer each guest a curated path towards balance, wellbeing, and lasting renewal. This is not a conventional holiday, but a careful immersion into Ayurveda – where every element of each day from treatments to diet to rest is carefully crafted.
Each wellness journey ranges from 7 nights to 14 or 21 nights, and unfolds at a gentle pace to support deep healing and bal ance. Mornings begin with traditional Ayurvedic rituals, mindful nature walks, and soulful yoga sessions, setting a calm and grounded tone for the day ahead. Then guided one-on-one consultations with resident doctors, are followed by treatments that may include healing massages, cleansing therapies, meditations, and holistic wellness sessions. Restorative dining is an integral part of each guest’s healing journey, tailored to individual doshas and guided by Ayurveda’s principle that food is medicine. Prepared in consultation with physicians – all nourishing meals served at specific times of the day highlight fresh seasonal produce, and can be enjoyed in serene pavilions that open to the Mandovi River.
The all-inclusive packages at The Postcard Ayurveda Retreat offer a comprehensive wellness experience. Recommended stays start from 7 nights at an inaugural price of Rs 3,40,000 for single occupancy, and RS 4,50,000 for double occupancy. Guests can also opt for longer stays of 14 to 21 nights for more long-term recovery and deeper restoration. Prices are inclusive of taxes, cover airport transfers and all aspects of the stay including – daily meals and beverages, prescribed treatments and medications during the stay, private doctor consultations, and yoga sessions.
Rooted in the essence of Ayurveda, personalised stays at The Postcard Ayurveda Retreat are not only for those looking for treatments, but also guests who are seeking good health – to strengthen immunity and restore long-term balance.
