All of the staff at Hinterland are amazing. I felt truly looked after and everything was organised so well. The service was amazing, the food was top excellent and they catered to my specific dietary requirements with ease. During the 6 days I had 3 different asana teachers experiencing different teachings which was great. Competent and friendly teachers. Highly recommended a stay here!

We spent 3 nights / 4 days with Unni and his team at Hinterland. My wife has done yoga for some time but I really haven’t done any. I found the twice daily (7am and 4pm) sessions easy to follow and you just do what you can , there is absolutely no competitive element to it just simple joy. On reflection I would like to have done 5 or 6 nights - but that will have to be for next time. We also managed to have extra massages, just bliss. At a practical level our room was perfectly clean, with a good hot shower. The Wi-Fi reached our room (Bambi) fine. They also were able to do our laundry for us. The food is simple, vegan and delicious; in four days we never had the same thing twice.

We have just left Hinterland today having had 6 nights there (the last was a late add on) and it was without doubt the highlight of our trip to Kerala. We went for the yoga asana practice which was great. A perfect pace for me, I felt able to come out of poses when I needed to. The meditation practices were some of the best and I have experienced and the philosophy with Swami was interesting and fun. Wonderful, fresh meals, I ate more than I should but I’m sure I am a little slimmer 🙂 And I loved all the birds and the wonderful plants and trees in the garden. The room was simple but comfortable, we very quickly felt at home. Thanks Unni and all your lovely staff who are, without exception, kind and helpful. A special mention for Shiven (unsure if that’s correct) who walked us around the garden, giving us the names of the plants and trees and giving us the opportunity to sniff and taste. Plus he let me go in with the ducks and turkeys when he fed them. I loved that 🙂 So hope we can return some time.

My mother and I visited Hinterland for two weeks and it was just not enough time. The whole experience was simply fabulous. We truly felt like we were living in a bubble, surrounded by raw beauty of nature and animals, such warm and welcoming staff always wearing their brightest smile. The yoga and meditation sessions were calming and reflective, adapting to all variations and levels of flexibility. The yoga philosophy classes were very interesting and thought-provoking on a spiritual level, we really enjoyed them. The massages were light but relaxing and much needed after yoga. The food was absolutely wonderful, packed with local flavours and spices and so nutritious! The accommodation was simple but kept very clean and we always felt safe. Unni was extremely warm and such a genuine person who really cares about each and every individual and whatever path in life they may be taking. He took great care of us in every way and helped us organise a lovely boat trip in the back waters. It was an unforgettable holistic experience and has definitely motivated us to make changes to improve the quality of our lives back home. We will surely be back for more!

We spent the most beautiful six days at Hinterland Village. From the minute that he greeted us with warm hugs Unni made sure that all our needs were met. We loved the yoga sessions in the shala looking out over Unni's rice paddy; Swami's enlightening yoga philosophy talks; the wonderfully varied and delicious food and drinks; the gentle massage sessions; the meditation; the chats with the other yogis from around the world. Thank you Unni and all the staff at Hinterland Village who made it such a memorable experience.

It is our second time visiting this yoga resort and for a good reason it is worth it coming here over and over again! Location, great yoga lessons and the best South Indian chef serving delicious food from the time we wake up for the first yoga lesson until eve and the bed time. The host Unni is taking care of all and every little detail during our stay. We feel we could stay here for months.. The massage this time was amazing as well. Calm, clean place to enjoy.. Will came again for sure! Thank you Unni.

This was my second time to the Hinterland and it lived up to the amazing memories I had from my first time. The place is a little piece of yogic paradise. Beautiful surrounds, a yoga shala that looks over rice paddies, amazing food that is so delicious and nourishing and healthy. All of the food is from their land and grown with purpose for the healing qualities of the plants. The massages and treatments are a perfect after lots of yoga. But the true magic of the Hinterland extends beyond this. Its the people that make it the experience that it is. All of the yoga teachers have a unique style that I love, but also the compassion and care they have for the students doesn't go unnoticed. And Unni treats every single person like they are a part of his family. He is kind and truly cares about helping each person get the most out of the experience but also the most out of life. He spends time with you when you first arrive and curates an ayurvedic plan specific to your needs that is implemented across your stay and for me also for when I went home. He helped me get my health back on track and now I feel great! Thank you Hinterland, I look forward to returning again!
