Nestled carefully on a hill in the Muthuvankudi village, the Kites Resort is an off-beat luxurious retreat in Munnar with spectacular views of the Western Ghats. The individual cottages in the resort premises are specially designed keeping in mind the guests’ privacy, away from any kind of hustle and bustle. Expect to entice your senses with a healthy dose of greenery and the vibrant colour of blooms in every corner. Not to forget, take a breath of fresh air and become an audience to a sky full of stars in the clear night sky. For you to be able to enjoy the views, the boutique hotel has been designed with open decks, rooftops, and balconies that ensure you can get a glimpse of peaks in Thekkady, Neriyamanagalam, and Munnar. During your stay, you can watch the sky change its hues from a vibrant blue to a glistening golden as the sun sets on the horizon. In addition to activities set out for adventurers and nature lovers, you can slow down and relax within the resort premises. Yoga mats are readily available in the resort for you to practice your asanas and meditate in the calm environs. In the evenings, you can sit around a bonfire and warm your cold toes. While you do that, warm your hearts as you share stories with fellow travelers. The resort also has its own spice garden and different varieties of flowers blooming within the premises. The resort opened its doors to guests in January 2019 and since it is located in the midst of several villages, it provides employment to locals who reside there. Moreover, one aspect that was considered while building the resort was to not cause any disturbance to nature. This is the reason why the cottages are located on different levels in accordance with the natural terrain. In the whole process, no tree was cut and the entire resort was designed keeping in mind this important criterion.
