WHY WE LOVE THIS HOTEL

· World-Class Service: Whether it’s the expertly led walks around the nearby ruins, the personal butler for suites and villas, or a private candlelit dinner served beside poolside, the service and attention to detail are guaranteed to amaze.

· Spa: Reflections of ancient Indian royalty don’t end with the resort’s aesthetics and food, and instead extend to the traditional Ayurvedic wellness treatments available at the spa.

DETAILED DECRIPTION

Just as Hampi, 14th Century Vijayanagara Empire’s capital, was once described as “the best-provided city in the world,” the Evolve Back, Hampi resort can arguably be regarded as housing “the world’s best-pampered guests.” Surrounded by rugged forests and boulder-strewn plains, the resort’s glorious architectural and interior design are inspired by the royal flavor of that ancient city, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and readily accessible for guests of the Evolve Back. When not exploring the ruins on a guided walk, guests can take a dip in the infinity pool, lounge by the family pool, relax at the Ayurveda spa, or lose themselves in a book with a cup of famous Sidapur coffee in hand. Four types of accommodations boast balconies overlooking the natural splendor of the area, private pools, en-suite Jacuzzis, and grand bathrooms. Exploring the ancient civilization’s history and culture is not limited to the heritage site as the resort’s two restaurants offer dishes inspired by the empire’s cuisines. For visitors who want a more private experience, customized meals are served by personal butlers beside the hotel’s infinity pool or even their suite’s private pool.

Ayurveda Spa

The resort’s world-class spa is a heavenly retreat where guests are pampered like royalty with techniques derived from India’s ancient Ayurvedic system of wellness and healing. The treatments are customized and performed by trained physicians to suit each visitor’s specific needs, in turn rejuvenating their body, mind, and spirit.

Family Pool

If guests arrive with their children, then the Family Pool’s clear, azure waters are the perfect place for families to beat the heat. The pool is fitted with special child-safe zones so that parents can swim and relax without worrying about their children’s safety.

Infinity Pool

The near Olympic sized Infinity Pool on the resort is a haven of tranquility. Reserved for adults, guests can take a dip while gazing out at the breathtaking boulder-strewn landscapes of Hampi. The pool’s design was inspired by the aqueduct fed temple tanks of the Vijayanagara Empire.

Reading Lounge

A Reading Lounge is perfect for savoring time in a setting reminiscent of a bygone era, typified by refinement. Here guests can immerse themselves in an eclectic selection of coffee table books or indulge in a steaming cup of cappuccino brewed from Sidapur. The soft light of diyas bestows the room with a dreamy atmosphere, perfect for clearing one’s mind.

Walks

A range of accessible walks designed to explore not only the architectural splendor and magnificence of the Vijayanagara Empire’s glorious capital city but also the ancient civilization’s history, mythology, commerce, and political life are available. There is the Tungabhadra trek through the Achyutaraya Temple, the Vitthalapura Walk through the capital’s bazaars and up to the famous Vijaya Vitthala Temple, the Raya Trail that journeys back through 500 years of Rayas history, the Virupaska Trail that starts on Hemakuta Hill and makes its way to the Krishna, and many more.
