Votre hôte et l'équipe
“Je pense très fortement que l’Inde offre le plus ancien et le plus gracieux système de raffinement dans l’hospitalité, et avec mon équipe, nous sommes désireux d’apporter cela à l’attention de tout un chacun. Après la création de Neeleshwar Hermitage sur une plage déserte de la côte Malabar – la beauté inexplorée du Nord Kerala et l’ajout d’une barge à riz sur les backwaters reconnectée à l’Hermitage, donnent aux hôtes l’opportunité de visiter certains des villages et des temples les moins visités du Kerala. La propriété a été honoré deux fois de l’award de CNBC TRAVEL en tant que meilleur resort dans le domaine la santé et du rajeunissement. Altaf a récemment rénové et amélioré la péniche de son père sur le lac Dal au Kashmir et à lance la seule péniche de luxe écologique et le seul Secret Retreats au Kashmir.”
