Dining

Spa cuisine at Shanti Ananda is based on the 5000-year-old medical science of Ayurveda, which talks about the importance of the right food depending on one’s body-type.
Every individual has a different lifestyle, body type, genetic background and metabolism. Ayurveda assesses an individual’s body and personality type, and specifies a specific plan for a specific body type and then personalises it, depending on the individual’s activity level, cultural background, medical condition, lifestyle and Ayurvedic constitution: Vata, Pita and Kapha.

Based on these principles diet can easily convert to suit all cuisines with the food at Shanti Ananda promising to be an eclectic yet healthy and wholesome combination. A combination that leads to perfect health - the natural way.
