The experience you'll have here will bring you back to the simplest joys of life. Right from the very first view of the property that you get from afar, you'll be assured that you'll have a good time here. The entrance on the traiditonal wooden canoe called vellam does become a major highlight, to reach the space that vineet and deepa's has created with so much love and passion. The place surely does feel like home, especially because of the presence and energy of ayana's youngest team member, chikki and her brightest and biggest smile. The conversations with people in the front porch or the dining table did become one of my most favorite parts here. Especially the memory of celebrating valentine's evening with everyone was a major highlight. The food was really good! thanks to deepa and her team. The cleanliness was something that i'd give a 4/5 points. As i understand it can be quite difficult to keep everything upto the mark of perfection. The quite nights and constant breeze on ones hair, the pleasant mornings with sun on your face, the beautiful refresing swim in the lake out front, everything helped me find what i looking for which was some moments of retreat and rest. So be sure and enjoy your time whenever you can at this lovely space. I hope you find what you're looking for at ayana's too.
