The word yoga is derived from the Sankrit word ‘yuj’, which means to unite or integrate. Yoga is about much more than simply stretching for increased flexibility. Proper yoga practice involves precise breathing techniques, postures, and meditation. Practising yoga helps balance the body and mind, enabling a natural state of health.
Exercising in the water effectively tones and sculpts the body, while building cardiovascular fitness, with reducing the strain on joints and muscles. The nature of aqua fitness makes it a great form of rehabilitative exercise, especially for any guests recovering from injuries. Light resistance is sometimes employed, using buoyant water weights and ‘noodles.’
Muay Thai is an ancient martial art established and practiced by Thai warriors. It’s an extremely effective method of fitness training that features total body strengthening, fat burning, increased mental alertness, and emotional balance.

Keemala are happy to welcome guests of all ages, however due to the natural design of the villas and the surrounding landscape – as well as the peaceful and quiet atmosphere – Keemala do not describe themselves as a ‘child-friendly’ resort. They do not have a kids’ club, kids’ pool or any children’s activities available on-site.
Keemala do accept children, on the provision that they will be accompanied by two adults. Children staying are the responsibility of their parents from a health and safety aspect, and to ensure that the adult atmosphere for all guests inside the resort is not affected. Please note that not all of the villas are suitable for children.
Wherever possible, Keemala are seeking to lessen their carbon footprint through a number of practices, including:
