Vythiri Resort

I stayed at Vythiri Resorts with my family, and it was a truly memorable experience. Nestled inside the forest, the resort offers a natural and peaceful ambiance. The property is well-maintained, and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The highlight of our stay was the exceptional service provided by the staff—from the front desk to the pool caretaker and restaurant team, everyone was warm and welcoming. Our experience at Cloud9 Spa was commendable, and the food at the resort’s restaurant, especially breakfast and dinner, was simply delicious. It’s a perfect place for a peaceful vacation where you can spend the entire day within the property, just soaking in the serene atmosphere. One observation about the common swimming pool: though well-maintained and natural-looking, the water has a greenish tint (probably due to the green colour of it's tiles, unlike the usual blue pools seen in other resorts. Additionally, occasional visits by monkeys made the kids hesitant to use it.

The place is a must go for a tryst with nature. They have absolutely put all efforts in place to make sure the guests have a wonderful time. Courteous staff, great food and nature is served as is which surely adds to the whole experience. Great weather too !

I arrived at Vythiri Resort around 2 PM and was immediately greeted with warm hospitality. My accommodation—a stunning 80-foot high treehouse—was accessed via jeep. The climb up the spiral staircase rewarded me with breathtaking views of the rainforest, and the sounds of birds and a nearby stream added to the serene atmosphere. After freshening up, I joined the other guests for high tea, enjoying a delightful spread that included sweet and savory treats. I then explored the 20-acre resort, passing lush greenery, a pool, sports facilities, and an Ayurvedic spa where I booked a treatment. The nature’s pool, formed by a running stream, was a peaceful highlight, though the rain kept me from sitting. In the evening, I attended a nature talk by the resort guide, Mr. Sijo, who shared fascinating insights about local wildlife and the ecosystem. Dinner was a feast with a variety of dishes, and afterward, I spent time in the indoor games area, enjoying table tennis, carrom, and pool. That night, I returned to my treehouse, where I experienced the peaceful solitude of the treetop retreat. The next morning, I joined a nature walk through the forest, spotting exotic butterflies and a waterfall. Afterward, I enjoyed a traditional Kerala breakfast, including dosa, idli, and pazhamkanji. Before leaving, I treated myself to a rejuvenating Ayurvedic massage at the spa. The entire stay was an escape into nature, filled with unforgettable moments of tranquility, adventure, and relaxation.
