We stayed at Kaivalyam for 3-nights and it was a wonderful experience. # While the property is a little old, it has been very well maintained and kept spotlessly clean. The rooms are spacious and provide a wonderful view. # The owner and support staff are very courteous and super helpful. # The food was excellent - the quality was great and the quantity (for a la carte dishes) was large enough for a family of 3. # Complimentory activities are well planned and interesting. # While overall location (Pullivasal) is a great location, the list-mile approach road to the property does need pro-driving skills. In case you are not an experienced driver esp. in hilly areas then strongly recommend taking help from the Kaivalyam Retreat for the last mile road. They do provide all the help so going down and coming up is not a big issue as such! Overall great time spent at Kaivalyam. ##### Miraj Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ameen Sep 25, 2022 ##### Ameen Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kiruba Dec 23, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort We were so happy we picked Kaivalayam retreat for our a Munnar trip.

Food is best, tasty and hygienic. ##### vivek Stayed 2 nights in May 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liane, UK Apr 23, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful rooms and grounds with free activities The hotel and surrounding tea plantations are so peaceful and beautiful. The hotel staff were so helpful and welcoming and arrange a schedule of free activities such as yoga, bird watching and cooking classes free of charge as well as help with organising other things to do. Our room was very nice with a separate seating area and lovely view but I would like to come back and stay in one of the tree houses they look amazing but were fully booked. They serve vegetarian food which was nice but a little bland, not quite as tasty as some of the meals we had elsewhere. Indian breakfast was good though and changed every day. Definitely recommended. ##### Liane Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Payel, Mumbai Mar 13, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best way to enjoy Munnar I chose this hotel because it was within our budget and had great reviews. But I was a bit skeptical since it was called a yoga retreat, which meant to me too many activities I wouldn’t be interested in and forced community building. However my experience was far from it. Location – The resort is located around 5 kms from Munnar bus stand and very close to the Pallivasal Tea Estate. A narrow lane goes downward from the main road and leads to the hotel. This road is quite steep at places and wide enough for only one vehicle. And the hotel staff suggest you to call for their jeep to take you down this distance. Ambience – The rooms are located in two floors of two buildings placed side by side on the hill. There are also some tree houses further down. The place is completely surrounded with tall trees giving it a forest feel. Rooms – We stayed in Luxury room which was in one of the main building. Tree houses were priced higher, so we went with this. The room was equipped with all amenities and decorated tastefully. The view from the window was absolutely beautiful, which could be enjoyed from seating area inside or outside balcony. Food – They have a different menu every day with a few choice for starter, main course, desert etc. As a yoga retreat they don’t allow non-veg and alcohol. So all items were vegetarian. But the food was quite tasty. Staffs & Activities – Activities were great and staffs were extremely amicable. Their simplicity made us feel very comfortable. ##### Payel Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eric, chalon Feb 26, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Magnifique endroit C'est un endroit magnifique, une végétation luxuriante.

This is an excellent location to stay to enjoy the peace and beauty of the mountains of Kerela! The location is one of a kind with yoga, meditation, bird watching, hiking, among many other activities. The food is very delicious, healthy, and made to your order. I highly recommend this location for those looking to relax and be in nature. Would love to return one day! ##### Shelley Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ALI, Edmonton Jan 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Elusive retreat The perfect place to unwind and disconnect.
