Honeymoon
A jacuzzi cottage, a sunrise above the clouds and a dinner just for two.
Overview
Built for the first trip together. Wake to mist drifting past your private jacuzzi deck, ride up to Mullayanagiri for sunrise, and spend the evening at a lantern-lit table on your own deck. Your cottage is set at the quiet top edge of the estate, with a fireplace for cool nights. Everything is arranged, so the only plan is each other. Breakfast and dinner are included; lunches are at the dining hall.

Birding paradise. Hornbills from the balcony, a paradise flycatcher on the morning walk and a kingfisher by the stream. The naturalist knew every call and never rushed us. One of the best stays of our India trip.
Smooth temple day. We did Horanadu, Kalasa and Sringeri in one day with their driver, who knew every timing and got us the prasada meal at Horanadu. Coming back to a warm cottage and a simple vegetarian dinner was ideal for my parents, who are in their seventies.
Beautiful, but know what you are signing up for. The setting and the staff are lovely, and the night trail with glowing fungi was the best hour of the trip. But the network is almost non-existent in the cottage and Wi-Fi gave up in the storm, so I could not take a work call. Fine if you want to disconnect; plan ahead if not.
