What is the minimum stay at one of the Barberyn Resorts?
The minimum stay at any one of our Ayurveda resorts is one week.
To obtain good results from an Ayurveda treatment plan, we recommend you stay for a minimum of 2 weeks and preferably 3 weeks. A longer stay enables the Ayurveda physicians to plan and execute the purification and rejuvenation properly. If you stay for 2 weeks, the treatment plan would include the purification process and introduce you to the rejuvenation. If you stay for 3 weeks, you can continue with the rejuvenation at the resorts. If you stay for one week, you get an introduction to Ayurveda.
