Overview
Resort designed as a reimagined tribal village with fully organic gardens and a paper-making center
Accommodations
Spice Village Thekkady offers 52 thatched-roof cottages modeled after the dwellings of the local Mannan tribe. Each cottage has a private verandah that overlooks fruit trees and herb beds, along with recycled pinewood furniture and organic toiletries. Guests staying in Deluxe Cottages receive a private garden sitting area.
Dining
The Tamarind Tree restaurant serves Kerala cuisine heavily flavored by local spices, with traditional tribal curries and Western dishes available. The 50 Mile Diet restaurant sources all ingredients from farms within a 80 km radius of the resort. Master chefs conduct cooking classes that showcase local flavors and traditions.
Activities & Entertainment
The resort provides a guided tour of the property that includes the water recycling plant, vermicompost plant, and the paper-making center where guests can make handmade paper. Evening entertainment includes a cooking demonstration in the Tamarind restaurant and cultural performances in the amphitheater. Guests can also play billiards at Woodhouse Bar, use the tennis and basketball courts, or join board games in the games room.
Wellness & Sustainability
Ayurvedic doctors offer tailored wellness packages at the in-house spa, with services including full body massage, head massage, and yoga classes. The resort follows sustainable practices such as bottling its own filtered water in glass bottles, using biogas for cooking, and generating solar electricity. An outdoor swimming pool and sun loungers provide a refreshing retreat amid the spice gardens.
