Our family stayed at the Mattupetty Bungalow, KDHP in April 2012. It is a beautiful bungalow that sits very quietly in its environment, allowing nature and history to speak through our eyes and senses. The beauty of this bungalow gives you immense hope (because it's heritage continues) in a context where you see so many ugly buildings in Kerala and... More

...stayed here for 2 nights in April 2012. We had an absolutely great time. The place is bang in the middle of a vast tea estate. So quiet and peaceful, with gorgeous views. The bungalow is a quaint little place. We took the inside room - very spacious. Bathroom was huge. The Bungalow came with a cook and a helper.... More

The view is spectacular and i think the best you can get in Munnar. The caretaker's of the Bungalow especially Mr D.Raja is a very good cook & will... More

Apparently the Tea Sanctuary operate a number of bungalows. We stayed at Kanniamallay (in Rough Guide as the best) with Louie and Stella looking after us. At least we thought his name was Louie we couldn't be sure. The room we had was huge with a bathroom and another room for the kids to sleep in (on mattresses on the... More

The rooms are large, with comfortable beds, and can accomodate 2 mattresses on the floor for kids. The bathrooms are large but very basic - more like an Indian home thAn a high end hotel - was adequate... More

Our first stop in Kerala was Kumarakom followed by Munnar. I had been to Munnar only a few months back and didn't expect it to enthrall me again so soon. But was I to be proved wrong or what! My friend had booked this place and we didn't know how it would be, it was also a little difficult to... More

We visited in the rainy season and knew Munnar would be cold - but we didn't expect to be colder inside the Bungalow than outside and going to bed with our socks on!! Also, the bathroom was so outdated and there wasn't sufficient hot water. That said, the views were tremendous, we were very well looked after by Mr Raj... More

Had come to know about Munnar long back when it was owned by Tata Tea & had heard a lot about their Bungalows. Finally when the time came, it took a lot of effort to find out that the bungalows owned by Tata Tea now stand transferred to Kannan Devan Plantation & that they have thrown open the same under...

The bungalow is set in the middle of the tea plantation and surrounded by gorgeous gardens. Beautiful old house with charm but basic rooms and beds. The staff were great and looked after us very well, even building a fire after the cold got to us.
