Thekkady, Kerala – Spice Village

At a Glance

Imagine a resort where less is really more. No air-conditioning or television or nightclubs. Just a mirror, held up to an age old culture and a living harmony. This is the tribal village, reborn for the modern traveller.

52 individual, tribal-styled thatch-roof cottages with verandahs (with, we hasten to add, modern plumbing, solar-powered hot water and contemporary furnishings).

Standard Villas: 
these are suite accommodations, with living rooms, a bedroom and a private garden, complete with your own park bench.

Deluxe Villas: 
Cosy huts tucked away between fruit trees, herb beds and 50-year-old timbers from the arboretum laid down by A. W. Woods.

As with all the CGH Earth properties, Spice offers a holiday for the inner you as well. With healing and rejuvenation therapies combining Ayurvedic massage and yoga. WeCG’ve got qualified ayurvedic doctors who’ll guide you through a regimen of massages and herbal baths guaranteed to give you new verve and vigour.

Mealtimes at Spice Village are an unhurried affair. In fact, we urge you to dawdle. Eat too quickly, and you miss the subtle nuances that spices take on when they’re absolutely fresh. Rush through your meal, and you give yourself no chance to enjoy the amiable atmosphere that’s common to all our dining areas.

There are three of these. Choose from the rustic wooden tables in the dining hall proper, or take a heaped plate out to the long verandah and enjoy your meal al fresco, watching the kingfishers flit around the swimming pool.
