Accommodation and location
Ananda Forest is located on a 1,5 hectare land close to Orgiva (Southern Spain), while also being very private and secluded. The land is home to many ancient olive trees, fruit trees, birds, wild animals, and has an incredible beauty and power to reconnect us to nature. Nested at the foot of the Sierra Nevada, you can enjoy the beauty, power and silent presence of the mountains. During free moments, you can enjoy one of the many hikes and trails, and even Orgiva (the central village of the Alpujarra mountains) is only 25min walking distance from the land.
It is a place to come home to your true essence. Ananda forest exists out of several beautiful terraces, each one having its own character and energy.
You can stay in a comfortable, beautiful wooden cabin, bell-tent (glamping), tent, or bring your own tent. Apart from your choosen accommodation, you can enjoy a rejuvenating rest or a sound journey from the birds and crickets in one of our hammocks in the shade of ancient olive trees.
