Set in the heart of the Cardamom Hills of Kerala, Spice
Village is an unprecedented tourist
destination, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy South
India's wildlife and beauty. The village lies just outside Periyar
Tiger Reserve, and a stay here is the perfect way to appreciate and respect the
environment. This is a place for everyone who loves nature: somewhere to fill
your lungs with fresh mountain air, to savour the rich fragrance of cinnamon
and cloves, to watch young elephants drinking at the water's edge. The resort
itself provides every comfort the modern traveler could wish for - luxurious
accommodation, mouth-watering cuisine, and an exclusive swimming pool.
Recreating the mood of the local tribal community, our architects have designed
individual cottages amongst a landscaped spice garden. Each dwelling is
thatched with elephant grass and offers simple luxury and privacy. Throughout
the village, the atmosphere is relaxed and enchanting. We can arrange for an
exhilarating water safari across Lake Periyar, a visit to a nearby coffee plantation, even a trek deep into the tropical forest.
Spice Village Periyar is a small settlement three kilometers from Thekkady, the main entrance to the Periyar Tiger Reserve. The design of each cottage was inspired by the native tribesmen of Periyar, the Oorali and Mannan, who lived in similar dwellings. Infact, one of the cottages currently being used as an office, is an original tribal hut which has been modified. A number of creature comforts have been added, however, to make your stay a luxurious one.
