We stayed for 2 nights and the stay was very comfortable. Totally a new experience and the villa is beautifully constructed on the rock and the protruded rocks inside the rooms are giving you a different feeling. Morning walk through the plantation is good. Staff are very friendly and food is tasty and good. Congrats to Johnson, Vinish, John, Paul....... More

“Boutique Hotel in beautiful secluded surroundings”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 February 2012

This is a small, elegant boutique hotel set in a cardamon plantation. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The food was exceptional and beautifully served. The room was clean and comfortable. We were given a guided tour of the plantation and tought about cardamon and pepper production.

There is nothing more pleasing than sitting in the midst of tea plantation, in a villa that is so one with nature, a cold breeze of the Western Ghats soothing you, the serene sound of the rivulets that flows by the window and having a hot cup of tea giving you the true taste of “KERALA”.

Mayapott has so much to rave about. Located on a cardamom plantation, it is surrounded by lush vegetation. It has an almost mystical setting, as a underwater spring emerges from under its foundation. But even more than the setting, the staff was what was most memorable. They attended to us in a most sincere and warm manner. The meals were... More
