From the moment we walked into our room we knew we were in paradise. Stunning room with outdoor shower and private plunge pool, wonderful decor and a wonderful bath tub! It was so lovely to be approached by Gail the owner who was genuinely interested in chatting with us, she even introduced us to another couple whom we ended up... More

Entering Prana Lodge is like stepping into a different world. The tranquility of the surroundings envelopes the visitor into an unforgettably classy experience. Hosts Gail and Tim ensure that one feels home instantly. The food by chef Jaycee is excellent, and a spa treatment by Num will send you off snoring in no time. A must for the discerning traveller.

I live in Chintsa and had dinner in the Prana Lodge restaurant (by special booking). It was the perfect place for a special occasion. The setting is stunning, comfortable and stylish. The food was DIVINE - a 6 course "taster" menu that was just incredible. Creative, amazing tasty dishes that looked like a piece of art and tasted even better!... More
