People come to the Raj for Panchakarma treatments -- they stay for a week ... or a month and get a variety of treatments. It's at once a very relaxing hotel / spa-like environment in the middle of nowhere and also an anchoring institution in the heart of a very interesting spiritual community (TM - Transcendental Meditation). I came on... More

Staying at the Raj is like staying in a freshly rennovated mansion. The rooms are sound-proof, the place is beautiful. My body immediately relaxed into the comfort and deep rest that is part of the Raj's healing experience. I found the people (both the other participants and the staff) interesting, kind, and helpful, the food wonderful, the oil massages every... More

I have been going to The Raj in Fairfield, Iowa almost yearly since it opened in 1993. That fact alone should be an impressive recommendation! For the deepest kind of rest and rejuvenation you just cannot do better. It offers so much more in the way of real healing than any other spa.

A VERY, VERY interesting and different experience for me. The Raj is not really a spa in any traditional sense but an in-patient wellness program focused on cleansing the system and nourishing the body. The experience was fully individualized by caring professionals. The other guests, a limited number due to highly persoanl system of care at 10-15 individuals, were other... More

The Raj isn't really a hotel, although that's the TripAdvisor category. It's primarily an Ayurvedic Health Spa. I had 7 days of treatments here in both November 2011 and November 2012, and my experiences were even better the second time. Having a friend in Fairfield, I didn't stay here, but the general areas, dining, and treatment rooms were all very... More

I recently returned from a 3 day (4 night) stay at The Raj. It was excellent. Perhaps the unfavorable reviews were due to misguided expectations- not knowing exactly what to expect. If you want a spa (and perhaps that is the wrong word to use) where you go with a friend for a facial and a massage, then this is... More

I am an alumni of Maharishi University of Management (MUM), Fairfield, Iowa, and periodically have ongoing education programs that I attend there... And when I go, I always stay at the Raj. It's an amazing Ayurveda (natural) Health Spa / Hotel in an uniquely pleasant area of rolling woods and farmland. The Raj is really a haven of peace. Here's... More
