We have beautiful granite boulders at the sea front, perfect for spending quality time at the sunset or to sit and meditate. And few steps down on one side is the almost private beach with clean soft sand & safe water.
Beautiful hillocks running along the Arabian sea are at the backdrop of the property. Our in-house naturalists take guests on nature walks through forested trails in the morning and evening hours. One of the trails across the hill leads you to a long and pretty beach called Belambar; where one can witness the lifestyle of the fishing community. Jetty at Belambar offers opportunity to witness landing of fresh catch.
The mighty Gangavali river separates us from Gokarna main town and thus also keeps the crowd away.
There is truly no other property that can boast of a similar unique location. There is no fishing village or commercial activity on this beach.
However, we have been clear in not violating any rules set down by the Government. The SEZ rules for the coastal belt require we keep a particular distance from the Ocean. We have strictly maintained the same.
We have also planted trees to protect us from the huge winds that can destroy our buildings. Therefore, we can say we are definitely on the seafront but with partial view of the sea from some areas because of the tree cover.
The property is centered on Wellness in all aspects.
