The resort is laid out on the banks of the Holiest rivers of India. The small town of Haridwar doesn't have much to offer, but a few kilometers away is a place called Rishikesh which has a lot of activities for tourists.
The resort has a host of activities which they set up every evening like archery, badminton, volley ball and biking. They have a lovely trek and a couple of ancient temples neat by.
The resort has a full service bar and serves Indian, oriental and some European cuisine.
They set up a lovely private dinner right by the river for us. They also set up lovely bon fires in the common areas or if you want it in your private villa they arrange that as well..
Staff is well trained and very friendly.
They also have a lovely infinity pool which we couldn't use as it was too cold.

An excellent resort on the banks of the Ganges. An ideal place for a weekend break. Good property with Spacious rooms. Good food. A little out of town & hence no public transport. Either have your own transport or arrange taxi. Helpful staff.

Visited the resort in first week of Jan. The resort was not fully occupied. The resort is at a beautiful location. The villas are wonderfully maintained. Very clean with modern amenities. The weather was very cold and the room has heater facility. The restaurant does not serve buffet in lunch and dinner. The breakfast has a wide spread and the food was very delicious. The river which flows near the resort is very peaceful.
My stay at the resort was just wonderful to describe. Had a wonderful stay.

We stayed in Aalia for four nights and had no room to complain whatsoever. Even though while getting there we we're a bit worried as you pass through a maze of small village roads before you reach, once there, it's beautiful. The location is perfect. Bang on the Holy River Ganga you can enjoy the white pebbled banks from the hotel lawns. We even went for a walk and enjoyed spotting birds there.
There are numerous activities at the property but I would highly recommend a visit to Rajaji national park and mountain biking with the activity manager Gautam. Both these outings were extremely thrilling and ones we'll never forget.
The food was excellent and service fantastic. We were made to feel completely at home by the staff , both at the reception and restaurant. The rooms are spacious and since they have villas it's a good place for groups and families.
You can plan day trips to Haridwar and Rishikesh from here. It's a Haven of peace to come back to after visiting the touristy towns! I would say, go for it!

It's a wonderful place to get rest and to relink with a shanti India. Rooms are spacious, team is really professionnal. And location is just perfect. Ideal for family - we went there with my two daughters of 3 and 6 and they really enjoyed playing all type of game (outside and inside) !
