We offer a variety of Eastern Keralan specialities and other Indian dishes home cooked with the flavour and aroma of our fresh farm grown spices and coconut. The food is tasty, healthy and vegetarian. Coffee served is farm grown. Facilities for making your own coffee, tea or fresh lime soda are available in communal area. Seasonal tropical fruits are always available. Water is filtered (safe drinking water).
From former guests: A magical setting truly welcoming, very relaxing, just to sit on the veranda, listening to the birds, admiring the butterflies and the jungle garden was wonderful... The garden tour was fascinating, see all the spices actually growing.. We came here from a trip in Munnar and before that a back-water trip. Here we have experienced a lot more and all these guided trips together...
