Soulful Getaway at Taj Resorts & Spa – May 2025 This three-night stay at Taj Resorts & Spa was a cherished Mother’s Day gift from my daughter, and it truly felt like a gift to my soul. Nestled between the serene Ganga river and the majestic mountains, about 1.5 hours from downtown Rishikesh, the location is nothing short of magical. The energy of the place is powerful, calming, and deeply spiritual , the kind that stays with you long after you’ve left. Time flew by , those three days felt like mere moments in the embrace of nature and peace. The Ganga Aarti was an unforgettable experience, mesmerizing and sacred. The only thing I felt missing was a translation of the shlokas. A lovely German girl beside me was keen to understand their meaning, and I thought how wonderful it would be if an English-speaking priest could offer brief explanations or if small note cards with English translations could be made available for visitors from around the world. The food at the resort was absolutely divine , a beautiful spread of flavourful dishes, including exotic fruits and vegetables. Every meal felt like a celebration of taste and health. A heartfelt thank you to the amazing staff who made our stay so warm and comfortable. Special mention to Ankit, Vikram, Shruti, Akhilesh, and Gulabsa, who went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Gulabsa’s thoughtful gesture of packing our breakfast for the journey back was the sweetest farewell. Thank you, Taj, for the unforgettable memories. I miss every minute of it and will surely return , next time, for a longer, even deeper experience.
