Set along the slope of a forest-clad mountain, besides three parts of a sprightly mountain stream that forks because it passes through the 150-acre estate, coming together and broadening at the end of the slope, Vythiri Resort is an excellent jungle hideaway and a naturalist's treasure trove. Constructed with wooden rafters on the roof and parquet flooring, decorated in wood and fabrics during a palette of earth colours - the accommodations are spacious. Available in forms that range from high tree houses situated above the towering cover higher up the grade of the hill and further down, cottages on stilts overlooking the river, some decorated with Jacuzzis, others with private pools and a group of furniture, they're all without exception, elegant and exclusive.
A string rope bridge across over the one part of the stream
leads to a restaurant and a coffee shop alongside, both facing the swimming
pool at one end and a full view of the forest all around. Everywhere, the muted
hiss of the stream is the continuous serenade. Holidays normally begin with the
rousing music of a Malabar Whistling Thrush and then the forest comes alive.
Groups of foraging monkeys and bugs and birds begin their life songs. The time
ahead is ripe with opportunities - splendidly plumed tropical birds on
overhanging parts, the irresistible lure of the jungle - the constant pulse of
nature is that the single clock you will need here. Allow yourself to be
seduced by the promise of discovery, bliss and exaltation - body, mind and
soul.
What makes Vythiri Resort truly and singularly unique is the
fact that it situated beneath an enormous canopy of a lush tropical rainforest. Walk into nature's wonderland - in the
company of amphibians, birds, fish, mammals, reptiles, flowering plants and
butterflies that reside the dense Vythiri rainforest. You will be attracted by the promise of
discovery, bliss and exaltation - body, mind and soul.
