A superb wellness sanctuary in the Himalayan foothills. It’s one of the best Ayurvedic destinations in the world, and it comes with the trusted and contemporary Six Senses quality. Great for solo travel and wellness programs.
Stay at Six Senses Vana
An immersive experience in a remote Indian forest. Six Senses Vana is a modern property that’s home to world leading practitioners, in Ayurveda, yoga, Tibetan medicine and natural healing therapies. It’s a place to reset, heal, rebalance and connect to yourself. Every stay includes full-board accommodation with guided nutrition, daily retreat activities and treatments. All guests have personalised programs, adapted from an initial arrival consultation. Intention-based wellness programs are popular and range from five nights (Sleep and Detox) to three weeks (Ayurveda Panchakarma).
Location
In a forest in Dehradun, a much-romanticised location due to its prominence in the Sanskrit poems, Ramayana and Mahabharata. You can fly to Dehradun from six Indian cities, including Delhi and Mumbai. From the airport it’s a 60-minute road transfer.
Rooms
We much prefer the suites over the rooms for a long stay, as they are double the size. Forest Suites have a great feeling of nature while Bodhi Suites have a dedicated space for treatments or meditation. Six Senses Vana also has some multi-bedroom suites which are nice for two or more friends travelling together.
Who is it for
This wellness property rewards long stays (one week or more) and most guests are solo travellers.
Facilities & activities
Amazing spa and wellness facilities should be expected, as per usual with the Six Senses brand. This is one of their flagship properties and as much as the facilities are lauded, it’s the practitioners that really make an impact. Some of the world’s best are coming here for short residencies throughout the year.
