Niraamaya Life announced its international expansion plans for 2026–2027, marking its entry into Nepal with the introduction of its wellness-led hospitality experiences in the heart of Kathmandu.
This expansion aims to strengthen Niraamaya Life’s presence in South Asia, catering to both wellness and leisure travellers and bringing together preventive wellness, immersive experiences, and a deep connection to Nepal’s natural and cultural heritage.

Commenting on the development, Allen Machado, Chief Executive Officer, Niraamaya Life, said, “Our entry into Nepal marks an important step in Niraamaya Life’s international journey and reflects our commitment to culturally rich leisure destinations. Kathmandu is a city where modern energy coexists with deep rooted spiritual calm. This expansion reinforces our mission to create spaces that encourage guests to reconnect with their inner peace while fostering meaningful connections with local culture and heritage.”
Rupesh Kumar Jha and Sushil Thapa, promoters of the property, added, “Partnering with Niraamaya Life allows us to position Kathmandu as a thoughtful, future-focused wellness destination that is deeply respectful of its surroundings. This project is envisioned as a long-term contribution to Nepal’s evolving wellness landscape, creating greater awareness across regional and international markets while offering travellers transformative wellness experiences.”
