King Charles and Queen Camilla are enjoying a mini break on return from their gruelling tour of Australia and Samoa, it has been reported.
The 75-year-old monarch and his wife have just spent three days at an exclusive resort, famed for its yoga, wellness programmes and Ayurvedic treatments.
The royal couple took a mini-break during the 35-hour journey back from the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in the South Pacific.
The resort attracts high-profile celebrities, including Dame Emma Thompson and the late Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

The Soukya resort is run by King Charles’s long-time holistic health consultant, Dr Issac Mathai.
He has previously revealed the royals as “the least demanding of my guests”.
The King and Queen’s days have started with morning yoga sessions, breakfast, and rejuvenation treatments before a healthy vegetarian lunch.
The day also includes a second round of therapies and a meditation session before dinner.

The King and Queen are said to be switching their lights out by 9pm.
King Charles announced he was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in February earlier this year and temporally stepped back from royal duties.
The King paused his cancer treatment during his nine-day royal tour of the South Pacific.
He returned to undertaking engagements in late April this year, with a senior palace official saying Charles thrives on undergoing engagements and meeting with the public.

The official added: “The King gets great strength from the Queen being there, not least because she keeps it real.”
“A great measure of the way that the King is dealing with his [cancer] diagnosis, and he’s a great believer in mind, body and soul, and this combination works very well on a visit like this because he feels that sense of duty so strongly.
The palace announced that long-term plans for the King to resume twice-yearly overseas tours next year are in place, subject to doctor’s approvals.
The mini-break and therapies have no connection to the King’s ongoing cancer treatment, according to the Daily Mail.
A Buckingham Palace spokesperson said: “Their Majesties had a short private stopover in India to help break the long journey back from Samoa. They return to the UK this morning.”
