2. The Leaf Munnar
Overall Ratings
5 based on 1827 reviews
Welcome to the choicest abode in the lovely hills of Munnar – The Leaf Munnar. This fine resort with its charming cottages, dotting beautifully landscaped grounds will calm your spirits to match the tranquil nature that surrounds you.This boutique property has been designed to provide breathtaking valley views from the common areas, and hence some of the villas do not have a valley view. The resort grounds give you endless options to lose yourself in nature ; the sweeping grounds offer lovely walking trails which wind around our herb gardens and organic vegetable patches. Relax in the infinity swimming pool with the energizing caress of cool breezes that flow down the misty mountains. How about a culinary lesson in preparing a tasty regional delicacy. Or if it suits you, be gladly welcome to get your hands dirty working on that oldest and most relaxing of hobbies – gardening, plant a seed and let it grow. Watch the stars come out in the unpolluted skies basking in the warmth of a lively fireside. Ways to relax and re-energize are endless at The Leaf Munnar.
A ROOM WITH A VIEW
Reviewed By angshukpWe stayed at Golden Leaf Room No 319 from 29th May to 01st Jun 22. Booked the rooms through Modern World Travel, Varanasi. An 'avant garde' experience right from the time we checked in to the time we checked out. The host and hostesses at reception, restaurants and housekeeping were warm, welcoming and gracious. Food was great in their restaurant. The view of mountains from my room was amazing. I could stay in that room days on. A special shout out to Saranya, our hostess in the Leaf restaurant, who was ever smiling and fetched us our buffet choices on the table. Way to go "The Leaf"

Best out of Munnar Resorts & Hotels

After through search and several suggestions from my friends, though I was not sure about the quality and service provide, I booked at Parakkat Nature Hotels & Resorts. A warm welcome by staffs with garlands. Oh..Man..! you won’t believe the quality, cleanliness and service provided by staff members. Rooms are crystal clear, floors and bathrooms are shining with golden and platinum decorative tiles, filled with lot of furniture and other essential items. Food is top notch with 100s of items for breakfast alone. Be ready to dress well to take portrait and scenic photos, everywhere adorable decorations, artworks and sceneries. Don’t miss out cave house, kids park, camp fire, rope car, trekking, pool, music, riding on horse and much more. Not to forget there is a jewelry shop to buy 1 gram gold jewels as well.

Wedding celebration
Reviewed By 595harikWe had conducted the wedding celebration of my daughter at Backwater Ripples during 2, June to 5, June and just wanted to record my heartfelt appreciation to the people who are the strength behind this magnificent and unique property. We take our hats off to the Management for keeping the staff so motivated and passionate about their job.We had taken all the rooms at the property on a full buy-out model and from the first day onwards we felt we were in a different world. This function was the most important event in our life and BWR ensured that all the different functions went on without a hitch. The food provided in the restaurant and for the various buffets were delicious and all of us craved for more servings of the dishes. (forgot about cholesterol and diabetes for a few days). The Kerala Sadya served on the wedding day was also superb. The scenic beauty of the property added to the enchantment. We were mesmerized by the beautiful landscape and the myriads of colours displayed over the lake during times of sunrise or sunsets. We also want to talk about the quality of the rooms and amenities provided in the rooms. They are world class. The bedsheets, linen and towels provided in the rooms are so fresh, fluffy and clean. Please keep it up. We all want to thank BWR for making our stay memorable and we will always keep the days we spent here in as one the best times we all had.
5. KTDC Tea County Munnar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 1005 reviews
Quaint cottages, fragrant tea gardens and mist-draped mornings are hallmarks of Munnar. For years the cool and picturesque town of Munnar was the summer retreat of the British and it still retains the charm of a colonial past. The destination is home to the only sandalwood forest in Kerala and is also famous for its exotic flora and fauna.
Delightful experience at Tea County.
Reviewed By RajeshRajasekharanOur 3 days stay at Tea County resort was a wonderful experience. Spread over 8 acres with cottages set amidst tall trees, it is located just 1 km from the centre of Munnar town. We had booked the Premium room which was spacious enough for three - myself, wife and 10 year old kid. The bathroom was clean with sufficient toiletries and hot water available throughout. King sized bed was quite comfortable, maybe little too soft. I loved the balcony overlooking the hills, it was a good place to relax and unwind with a sip of tea. They have only a few options for recreation - carroms, table tennis and billiards table. A badminton court would be a nice-to-have. The reception and security staff are very courteous and helpful. Room cleaning was immaculate. Breakfast buffet (free with the booking) was well stocked with variety of food, including Kerala traditional cuisine idiyappam/egg roast and puttu/kadala curry (on different days). Dinner buffet menu was disappointing for ₹500 plus taxes, it is predominantly vegetarian menu plus one chicken curry and chicken salad. The car parking is at an open ground adjacent to the property, gets muddy if it rains. It would be great if resort management consider paving tiles or concreting the parking area. During the rains, be sure to carry an umbrella so that you don't get drenched walking (2-3 minute steep climb) from parking lot to the resort entrance. Overall it was a good experience staying at Tea County. Will definitely recommend this place.

Very relaxed and pleasant stay
Reviewed By induwaryWith beautiful lake view, located in a calm and serene place. We regretted booking the place for one night stay due to time constraint. Would have loved to stay there for longer duration. I can sit there for long, lazing around and doing nothing just enjoying the vibe. Staff is also very hospitable with good service. There was a live music performance during dinner time. Food has scope to improve a bit.

A five star luxury resort harmoniously set in the heart of Wayanad,thirty acres of refreshing greenery, the tantalizing aroma of fresh spices, coffee and tea. The tone of sparkling water from majestic Chembra peak and Karanchi stream. The perfect escape from the tediousness of hectic city life. Vythiri Village, ‘Nature's best kept secret,’ is the ideal place of luxury, romance and wellness. The serenity of the resort is perfectly matched by the uncompromising luxury of its cottages and pool villas perched on a hillside.

Give it a pass!
Reviewed By Sightseer03749973772There was nothing bad as such but also there isn’t anything great about this place except the open spaces. Lake view isn’t as good as some other resorts in the area (won’t name them here). The restaurant is pricey. Entertainment room was too small. Cleanliness and maintenance are just about average. Staff behaviour is good but they are prompt in saying NO to any extra requests that you make. Biggest letdown will be that you won’t find many sitting infrastructure in open specially towards lake because lake view isn’t simply good enough from this place.
