Sustainable Luxury
Sustainability has underlined the creation of Oneness and continues to underpin all aspects of its operation. The choice of bamboo as the primary material for the two signature structures at Oneness was deliberate, aligning with their commitment to sustainability. They strictly implement a NO single-use plastic policy and have meticulously planted 30,000 saplings across 50 species of plants. The kitchen garden at Oneness grows food organically, and kitchen waste is recycled through composting.

Architecture and Bamboo Structures
The choice of bamboo as the primary material for the two signature structures at Oneness was deliberate, aligning with their commitment to sustainability. The reception, an embodiment of warmth and welcome, is crowned by a bamboo guest cottage. Every inch of the reception, from thin eucalyptus sticks to sturdy balcuba bamboos, has been meticulously handcrafted. This structure stands as a testament to their dedication to using natural materials and fostering environmental consciousness.
A magnificent bamboo hall serves as a multi-purpose marvel, functioning as both a restaurant and a yoga hall. Its unique design, mirroring the free-flowing waves of the Ganges, adds an iconic touch to the destination. The creation of this structure was no small feat; bending bamboo is an intricate process, and each piece has been meticulously carved through a chemical process.
Dining Experience – Her Highness
HER HIGHNESS is their open-air dining restaurant, an homage to the divine feminine form. The whole structure is made entirely of bamboo, one of the most sustainable materials sourced from Mother Nature. The sinuous curves of the structure epitomize the glorious and free-flowing waves of the Ganges. The wholly vegetarian menu features hearty and quintessential dishes from the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand, prepared with love and gratitude from locally sourced ingredients. Apart from the buffet spreads for the three main meals of the day, they also serve select dishes from an A-la-carte menu placed in each cottage, including dog food.
