Activities

The exceptional spa at Ranjits SVAASA offers a mix of Ayurveda Panchkarma and Universal therapies to relax the body, mind & spirit. Housed in what use to be the cowshed & the horse stable, the therapies range from body massages, scrubs, polishes, packs & baths and are performed by trained therapists using a range of herbal, organic essential oils. Hydrotherapy and Infra-red Sauna are also available as part of the spa experience. After a relaxing treatment, why not relax in the lounge with some organic drinks and snacks, take a yoga-meditation class in the bright atrium or find a quiet spot in the garden or out in the courtyards, scattered with swings and rattan couches.

Amritsar is full of cultural treasures to visit including the awe-inspiring Golden Temple which was built in 1601 and is only 10 minutes away from Ranjits SVAASA.
