You can pick from rooms or cottages, some of which come with private gardens and open-to-sky decks. The Deluxe Cottage is the highest category and is located close to a waterfall, with views of the hills and the lake. There are ample options for food and drinks including a South Indian cuisine restaurant and a poolside bar and grill. Take a cycling tour close to the property, book a private yoga session or get a private dining experience at your villa. If that's not enough, there's a spa, sauna, fitness centre and pool to keep you busy.
A picture-perfect resort across its 10 acres in the northern plateaued reaches of Kerala, Taj Wayanad looks out into 270 degree-views of the stunning expanse of Banasura Lake and its forested hills. With mindfulness, wellness and nature respectfully woven around it, this gorgeous resort, designed around its topography is an inimitable earth-friendly experience in God's own country. Sinuous avenues lead you to the resort perched on a peninsular hill with sweeping views of the lake and lush forest corridors of Wayanad. The hilly greens, still but vibrant, complement the pristine lake, ever-changing with the moods of the skies. Waterfront villas & cottages, view-first rooms, carpeted vegetation, and an idyllic air are what captivate you first.
But then, as you peel away the layers, you will discover a strong sense of purpose that guides every experience at this resort. Sensitive architecture, locally sourced materials that include bamboo, natural stones, timber and Kannur terracotta, and a vernacular design informed by North Kerala's heritage, come alive with plenty of natural daylight. Stroll around and you will make acquaintance with tropical fruit trees, tender coconut, tall Jambus, Areca Palms and Jackfruit or get greeted by the Canna Lilies, Morning Glory, and indigenous flora characteristic of the western ghats.
