Wayanad hotels & places to stay

Had been here for a vacation and also to celebrate my wife birthday. On request the staff at Vythiri Village had organized for Ballon decorations and cake in the room. We had booked for a cottage and it is very spacious and clean. The food and buffet for breakfast and dinner has multiple cuisines. Food is very food and vegetarians will throughly enjoy the same. The property is spread across a large area and they have a shuttle service to commute the guests to their respective cottages or rooms from the front office where main restaurant is also located. From day 1 we were guided and kindly accomodated for all of our requests from the staff. All staff memebers are very friendly and cooperative. This is first thing anyone visiting the resort and they score full 100% there. Not even a single Cons regarding their staff and facilities in the resort. Not to name any, starting from their artificial falls, infinity pool, kids pool, archery, zipline, spa, ayurvedic centre, 12 D 🎥, everything is simply great. Definitely the best property in Wayanad is Vythiri Village resort and nothing can replace this. Kudos to the entire management and staff for giving such a wonderful experience to their customers. I will recommend to all to definitely visit this once and i am already planning my next visit to this resort soon. I dont mind having vacation twice a year to visit such a awesome place again!! 😉

It was very good stay in Wayanad windflower. Good Points. 1. Very nice location and greenery. 2. Courteous Staff and prompt service. 3. Cleanliness at most of place in the resort. 4. Food was good but could be improved. To be improved. 1. Direction sign was confusing at many places. 2. There was no activity planned. 3. Wifi was not working in room properly. 4. Last 3.2 Km to reach the resort is really bad. GPS does not work to trace the exact location.

There are just 5 stars provided.. If given option, would have given more stars... Been to wayanad for first time and enjoyed our stay throughout... It was indeed a sad moment to finish our vacation.. Before we booked the rooms, our concept was to choose the best accomodation such that we enjoy the place thoroughly even if we don't spend our tome on sight seeing and ended up booking Visthara... We have no regrets at all... It gave us lot of beautiful memories and we will surely visit this place everytime we comebto wayanad.. Thanks to the staff for great hospitality... We loved the food too!!! Thanks again!! :)

Wayanad Wild is like a watchtower in the jungle. It's isolated from the buzzing town of Wayanad and stands tall and high in the jungle. The pictures that you will see online will not do any justice to the place. You need to be there to experience it. A few things that really stood out for us during our stay: - The staff is very very hospitable. I don't remember the last time we were treated so well. They ensure that everything that you need is taken care of. Mr Subrahmanian - GM and Mr Manoj KK - Manager go out of their way to ensure each and every guest is treated like their family member. You can always see happy faces around greeting you, asking you if you need anything etc. They're a fantastic team. One of the reasons why you should stay here is to experience their hospitality. - The food is outstanding. I wasn't too sure of the food when we reached but it's absolutely delicious. We stayed here for 3 nights and every meal was unique with local delicacies. This property has a full board plan and you end up having your meals at the property itself. Don't miss out of the food! - The rooms are spacious with private balconies that open up to the forest of the pool depending on your booking. There's no television set or air conditioning in the room and you will not need it as well. The washroom is also quite spacious, well kept with modern amenities. Apart from that they have an inhouse naturist who will take you for nature trails, bird watching etc. Don't miss out on this if you can. A few important things to keep in mind: - in case you're coming to this property in a sedan, kindly contact the resort and park it down at the area designated by them. There's a 3 km long off-roading track and you may face difficulties taking the vehicle up. The resort arranges for a pick up a drop from the parking area down. In case you're coming in a SUV you can go ahead and take it up right till the resort. - Kindly maintain the decorum of the jungle. Since it's located inside

This place probably has the best view in Wayanad. The view from the pool towards the hilly landscape is to relish. The best thing in this resort. The staff are supportive & prompt. The food however was terrible. The use of spices in every dish is totally alarming for even a spicy food lover. Though the manager acknowledged & said they were working on it. Apart from that this place has a total zen feel to it. Just a quite nice place to spend your quality weekend.

We spent a four nights in a raised cottage room. The setting of the room was one of a kind with an amazing balcony overlooking the tree tops. We saw many species of bird, butterfly and even a Malabar squirrel from there. Throughout our stay, the staff were extremely friendly, helpful and attentive. The food was fresh and tasty. The pool was a highlight of our stay. As there are only 10 rooms in the hotel, we practically had it to ourselves, which was very quiet and relaxing. A local taxi driver booked by the hotel was punctual, kind and was always pointing out animals near the roadside (we saw more here than in the state-organised safari!). Altogether, we would highly recommend the hotel and can’t wait to return!

Pros - View - People - Peaceful nature retreat - Simple, healthy & cheap food Cons - Far from places if you are planning on sightseeing - If you are looking for luxury and a large number of food options, this is not the place. Tip - Ask for rooms which are higher up - Don't take your own car for the last 900M, the folks from the resort will pick up you in their Bolero (jeep like car ) . They actually called us on the day to check when we will reach, they will also suggest the best route. - They don't have an intercom in the rooms, so make sure you carry your mobile with you (in the rare case you are not planning to)

We traveled as a couple and stayed for 3 days. A totally satisfying experience is what we felt when we checked out from the resort. To be honest when I read the reviews about After the Rains before booking I was amazed and doubtful to see complete positive reviews. But after Day 1 we felt the resort, rooms, food, location everything met up to the reviews. The location is the highlight about this resort and takes your breath away when you see it the first time. The next thing is the food at the restaurant. The food especially lunch is local cuisine and finger licking good. The view from the room (Lilikoi that we stayed) is fantastic. The hospitality from the staff is outstanding. Few things to keep in mind - the resort is located far away from the towns like Kalpetta, Sultan Bathery. So keep all essentials handy. You need to travel at least 1 hour to reach popular sight seeing destinations from the resort. And there are lot of insects and leeches around the resort but nothing harmful...

Property is located on Kalpetta Town Center near bus station it is the best location to do Wayanad sightseeing as all tourist destination are equidistant from here, property is like an oasis with a swimming pool, gym in 2nd floor, rooms are spacious with modern amenities, Good breakfast selection, South Indian, continental breakfast, enjoyed my stay will return in future

We went here to celebrate my mothers birthday and although it's pricey for India, it was a truely special place. We felt spoilt by the staff who were extremely friendly and attentive, the area was perfect for watching the sun rising and setting over the dam and mountains. Our room's balcony was overlooking the dam and mountain and it was superb so make sure you book a room with lake view as it is worth the extra money to have that view every morning and evening! The spa was not the best. I've had a lot better treatments in ither places in India for a lot less... The food was good. I wouldn't call it spectacular but the service was brilliant, the food prices were not bad and the staff are phenomenal. I would go back to this place in a heartbeat!

Nice room at an affordable price. Comfortable bed, The front desk has been incredibly nice and helpful and was very helpful in advice on what to do in the Wayanad. Hotel was very clean as well as the room. The nice selection for the complimentary breakfast was better than what I expected. Though we didn't spend too much time in the hotel, other than sleeping but it left a great impression on us! Our sheets, towels and surfaces of desk, counter and bathroom were all regularly cleaned during our stay. • Stayed 3 nights from 20th May 2016, travelled with family Pradeep Gunasinghe Sri Lanka

NICE OPPURTUNITIES TO WATCH BIRDS, PLANTS, VILLAGE VIEW ETC. THERE IS AN ADJACENT GARDEN AREA TO WALK AROUND. CHILDREN PLAY ARE IS PROVIDED. CAMP FIRE FACILITIES ARE ALSO AVAILABLE WITH GOOD GREEN LAWN TO ENJOY. IT IS SECURED AND SAFE. THE MANAGER, FRONT OFFICE PERSON AND OTHER STAFF ARE VERY CO-OPERATIVE AND HELPFUL.

SPECIAL MENTION IS TO BE MADE ABOUT CHEF RAMESH AND HIS COLLEAGUES WHO MADE US FEEL HOMELY. DEFINITELY WORH VISITING AGAIN. RECOMMENDED FOR A RELAXED STAY. ONLY THE APPROACH IS LITTLE DIFFICULT. THE RESORT IS OFF THE MAIN ROAD LEADING TO KARAPUZHA DAM.

We stayed in sterling wayanad for 3 days from 22nd to 25th Dec 2018. Property is located inside forest and you can enjoy property location and peace you get. Staff is very friendly and polite. Service is quick and food is tasty. Only thing what we did not like is, what money we pay for that we get very little as much room is concern. In our room for which we paid almost 8k for a night, we got just a bed. No sofa set, no study table, no chair. Wifi is available just for an hour in your whole stay and that one hour you must consume in your single access. We disliked this. Otherwise everything looks quite good.

My stay at Pepper Wayanad Gate was a pleasant experience. The rooms were huge and spacious, and neatly maintained. Breakfast was a decent spread. Dinner buffet was also very delicious. The only issue I faced was that with hot water supply in bathrooms. The staff was helpful in getting us the hot water manually. I would definitely recommend this place and also ask the administration to keep making improvements.

Real value for money. Quiet peaceful place that gives you the calm one is looking for. I stayed for 4 nights and I have already booked the next 4 nights next month because I loved the place so much. Vinod, the owner goes out of his way to welcome and take care of you. One day was a hartal/strike and all establishments were closed. He took the trouble of bringing me food from his house. The breakfast is really nice and varied everyday. The staff is also very helpful and keeps checking whether I need a tea or coffee at any time. Vinod, the owner even came to drop and see me off at my Bus stop. Truly exceptional place and human beings. Looking forward to my next stay there. Loved the place. Huge rooms, very clean. Lots of place to sit around and spend peaceful time soaking up the sun or reading a book.

We stayed at Cavern for 4 nights and occupied 3 rooms during the Diwali weekend. There weren't many reviews to rely upon as this resort is relatively new, so we were so glad to have gone with our gut feeling as this holiday was wonderful! The cave design rooms are such a fun idea..my 4 year old had a blast!The property is beautiful and managed by Mr. Biju, Jeetu and Glado. Mr. Biju was always there with ready assistance and Jeetu and Glado were always efficient and warm.Glado especially treated us like family. The food prepared was yummy which was a plus! It takes an hour to get to the dams,safari or lakes so thats manageable...and save for the last 200mtrs strech which is kaccha roads, the resort is beautiful and surrounded by soothing greenery. The rooms, staff and food are capable of ensuring a nice stay.Two Thumbs up!

Stayed here with family of 4 from 23-5-2015 till 26-5-2015 in rooms 201 and 204.Overall its a nice resort with good ambience admist the lap of nature.The resort though needs lot of professional touch to make it more comfortable for the guests! 1)First thing they need to somehow in collobaration with the forest department and other nearby resort owners should urgently get the approach road to the resort relaid and repaired.Its a very difficult road to drive and needs lots of skill especially in the rainy season it is almost unmotorable road. 2)The resort management should see that the ambience should be maintained and not allow guests to Smoke anywhere and spoil the health and mood of non-smokers.If any guest wants to smoke and spoil his health in such a fantastic environment,so be it ! But management should strictly create no smoking zones and allow guests to smoke only in specified smoking rooms or areas and not in open common areas. 3)The workers and staff in the resort are good and work always with a smile.However,there is lot of communication and language barrier.The staff especially the one who takes orders for in-room dinning always dont understand most languages other than malayalam and during our stay not even once our orders were correctly taken and sent to the room.Either we got excess cups of Tea/coffee than ordered or less cups than what we originally added. 4) Also they arrange on request local sight seeing in jeep with a charge of Rs.2800/- kindly avoid taking this,as its a total ripp-off as they cover only around 55kms up and down but charge you a very expensive Rs.2800,instead take your own vehicle for local sight-seeing. Overall its a nice resort,nice ambience and also value for money and definitely worth staying once especially if one doesn't get accomadation in the near-by Vythri resort which is the best resort in Vythri.

Ours was M5 - the villa at the far end. It's quite steep to get there, the slippery slope sometimes makes commute difficult. There was a small kids play area, which could have been better. The buffet breakfast was good, dinner (paid) is good though choice is less. Food was tasty, we liked it. There are a few tourist spots nearby, but others are quite far (40-50kms). Thats that problem with Wayanad - I dont think there's a place which is closer to all tourist attractions. The hotel is in a quiet spot, and the morning view of the hills are breathtaking. The rooms are quite well maintained, hot water available in the bathrooms. Internet connection and a microwave in the room would have made it better..

Its a good place with decent amneties and hospitable staff. The best part is the view and calm surroundings. The resort is around 4 kms away from the main highway and is not that far away from kalpetta. You get decent food at relatively cheap price but the options are limited. You get around 4 items in the breakfast and around 6 items in the dinner to choose from. The staff is hospitable and goes to great length to accomodate your request. Also these guys do laundry for free and for us this was a great surprise as we were travelling with our 11 months old kid and he was pretty good in messing up his clothes.
