ELE|NA (Elements of Nature), the luxury wellness and spa brand of Atmosphere Wellness Pvt. Ltd., has announced a strategic partnership with Ananta Spa & Resort, Ajabgarh, to operate the resort’s wellness sanctuary under the ELE|NA Ayur identity.

The upcoming sanctuary marks ELE|NA’s first property under its wider partnership with Ananta Hotels & Resorts and represents the brand’s continued expansion within India’s growing wellness hospitality sector.

Located in the Aravalli foothills, ELE|NA Ayur at Ajabgarh is positioned as a destination wellness escape within driving distance of Delhi and Jaipur. The collaboration brings together ELE|NA’s spa management expertise and nature-led wellness philosophy with Ananta’s resort setting, creating a turnkey wellness model covering concept development, programming, operations, team training and guest experience.

A Destination Wellness Sanctuary

The two-storey wellness destination will feature nine treatment rooms, a twinned hydrothermal circuit, Meditation Hall, movement pavilion and salon. The sanctuary’s programming will be organised around ELE|NA’s Pillars of Vitality, covering TouchFlow massage and bodywork, ReFine skin health, BodyFit movement and breathwork, SoulVibe sound and water therapies, SleepSync sleep experiences and FoodDelight conscious nutrition.

The wellness menu will also include signature experiences inspired by the natural elements, including Inner Fire Awakening, Grounding Earth Ritual, Flowing Water Therapy and Sacred Wood Restoration.

Wellness Experiences Inspired by Rajasthan

ELE|NA Ayur will draw from the cultural and natural character of its surroundings through experiences such as the Jaipur-Inspired Heart & Grounding Ritual, Desert Glow ubtan body polish and Camel Milk nourishing wrap.

The sanctuary will also offer sound journeys including Fort Echoes and Sound of the Hills, while couples can opt for private experiences such as Ever After and the 180-minute Sacred Together.

The experience will extend beyond the treatment rooms through forest bathing, guided nature walks, stargazing, moon meditation, floating meditation and sound healing, making the surrounding Aravalli landscape an integral part of the wellness offering.

A Four-Week Elemental Vitality Calendar

Beyond treatments, ELE|NA will introduce a four-week Elemental Vitality calendar built around Earth, Water, Fire and Air.

The programme will cover physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual, environmental and creative wellbeing through activities including Aravalli nature walks, pottery, kintsugi, sound healing, stargazing and tree planting.

The tree-planting initiatives will also contribute to the Ananta group’s annual programme of planting 50,000 trees across its properties.

Spaces Designed for Restoration

The sanctuary will feature dedicated spaces including the SleepSync™ Room, offering hammock sound baths, yoga nidra and guided rest, along with a Contrast Therapy Suite featuring ice baths and warm jacuzzis.

Additional facilities will include a sound-healing hall and HydroTherm dry-flotation massage. ELE|NA’s owned product houses, ELE|NA Essentia and Philosophia Botanica, will also be incorporated across treatments and retail.

ELE|NA will manage the sanctuary end to end, covering treatment design, team training and daily operations and activation.

Commenting on the partnership, Heidi Grimwood, Senior Vice President of ELE|NA, said, “Ananta and ELE|NA share an ambition to make wellness a defining part of the guest experience. Few settings give you as much to work with as Ajabgarh: the forest, the hills, the dark skies. Our task is simply to open the door to all of it and to hold the sanctuary to a standard guests will travel for. We look forward to opening it and to the properties that follow.”

Mukund Goyal, Chairman, Ananta Hotels & Resorts, added, “Ajabgarh was built around the land it stands on. The villas are grouped by element, most of the thirty acres is left as landscape and the fort on the ridge has been there far longer than we have. A wellness sanctuary belongs in a setting like this. ELE|NA works to a standard we recognise and Ajabgarh is the first of several properties we expect to develop together.”

The Ajabgarh sanctuary is the first property in the wider ELE|NA-Ananta partnership, with further developments planned. The collaboration also positions ELE|NA as a wellness partner for Indian hotels and resorts seeking to integrate wellness more deeply into the guest journey and develop it as an experience-led revenue stream.
