Over time, the idea of sharing that experience with others began to take shape.
The Ivara may have grown into a resort, but it was never conceived as a venture. It remains, at its heart, a place built around the warmth, hospitality, and togetherness that inspired it from the very beginning.
In the Heart of Barajaguli
The Ivara is thoughtfully curated to reflect the charm of Barajaguli, not replace it.
Every space draws from the land’s rural beauty, while offering the comforts of modern hospitality.
Culture and care sit at the core of everything, from the food to the architecture.
With just three cottages and eight rooms, The Ivara was designed to feel intimate. No crowds, no rush – just quiet corners, open spaces, and the chance to experience the estate at your own pace
It’s not a place to pass through,
it’s a place to pause.
From the Founder
Before Ivara was a retreat, it was my parents’ bagan bari, a home they built with their heart. I watched them welcome hundreds of friends and family here with a warmth that came naturally. With Ivara, we’re simply carrying that forward — opening our home to the world.
At The Ivara, giving back is part of how we grow.
Through initiatives that support education, women’s empowerment, and local entrepreneurship, we hope to contribute in meaningful ways to the place we call home.
At The Ivara, we believe travel should leave a positive impact – creating value not only for guests, but for the community around them. A place where every stay nourishes both the self and the soil it stands on.
