The Rainforest Retreat features three types of accommodation to suit different tastes and budgets. Each of our cottages has been specially designed with natural beauty and comfort in mind and adorned with lovely paintings by various artist friends. They are all set in lush green surroundings and powered by solar energy.
220V current for charging electronics is now available in the Deluxe and Drongo cottages.
Charging points and Wi-Fi are available at the common dining area.
Luna Cottage features a beautiful central living room space with 2 separate double bedrooms (with attached bathrooms) and 2 verandas. It is next to the dining area and surrounded by a crystal clear stream and accommodates 4-6 persons.
Atlas Cottage
has 2 independent bedroom units with attached western bathrooms. These are
spacious family rooms with fireplace, and one features a cozy loft ideal for a
couple of extra kids. It is about 50m on the other side of the stream from Luna
cottage.
This lovely, secluded cottage has been refurbished with a new attached kitchen to make it an ideal self-contained unit. It features 2 spacious bedrooms (one of which can be converted to dining/living area space), 2 bathrooms and 3 verandas and is ideal for a family. It is now powered by a new solar system; so there is 220V current available for charging all your gadgets. There is mobile phone connectivity at the cottage, and one can get good internet connectivity using a portable 4G Hotspot Wi-Fi Data Device.
Two artistically designed Adobe Huts have replaced the tents and are located near the Plantation Cottage overlooking a cardamom valley. These natural and truly sustainable earthen rooms have a special feel to them. The spacious Butterfly room can accommodate 2 -3 persons while the smaller Mandala room is suitable for a single or couple. Each hut has its own separate toilet and wash room a few metres away.
The Drongo Cottage and Adobe Art Huts are located inside the plantation about 250 metres away from the central dining area. Access is via a natural unpaved path and requires climbing some stone steps; so it may not be suitable for seniors or small children. Please bring good walking shoes and flashlights.
Please note that meals are served buffet style in the common dining area.
We prepare delicious, wholesome meals with locally sourced ingredients. Our food is moderately spiced to enhance its delicate flavours. Some of the spices (cardamom, pepper, chillies, turmeric, mango-ginger, and cinnamon), fruits and vegetables are grown here and others come from farms nearby. We make our own whole wheat breads, cakes, and condiments such as jams and pickles. Please let us know if you prefer vegetarian or non-vegetarian food.
Thank you for the food. It was very delicious and I loved the bread and cake.

Thank you for the delicious organic food and the fact that you kept my allergies in mind and customised the meals for our vegan preferences. It's the best food I have eaten in India.
