An exhilarating stay and timeless memories at Misty Mountain Experience , Kuttikanam, Kerala, India.
Of late, during a business trip to Thekkady, I decided to take a small detour and spend a night in Kuttikanam a quiet hill town that promised peace away from the usual rush. What began as a quick stopover turned into one of the most refreshing experiences I’ve ever had.
Mr. Rohan helped me book a cozy resort tucked amidst lush greenery – Misty Mountain Experience. When I arrived, I was welcomed warmly by him and Mr. Sreejith Nair, the Chief Operations Manager. Their genuine hospitality made me feel instantly at home. Mr. Nair took the time to explain the resort’s facilities and made sure every detail was perfect for my stay.
Before lunch, Mr. Rohan showed me around the property. There were two charming types of rooms the elegant Wooden Chalets with three rooms, and the inviting Reverie Cottages with four. Together, just seven rooms but each one had a warmth and style that blended beautifully with the natural surroundings.
We also visited the two restaurants: Teyla, which serves Chinese and Continental cuisine, and Elam, known for its rich Indian dishes. The aroma drifting from the kitchens was irresistible, and I knew the meal ahead would be special and a feast for my taste buds!
When I returned to my room, the mist was rolling in over the hills soft, silent, and magical. My stay had only just begun, yet it already felt special.
During lunch, I met Mr. Alan, a cheerful and energetic food & beverage associate whose bright smile and attentive service added a personal touch to the meal. The food was delicious and mouth watering , but it was the calm, nature-filled atmosphere that made it truly memorable.
After lunch, with only a few hours to spare, I joined Mr. Bibin for a jeep safari through nearby plantations and what an experience it was! We covered nearly 600 acres of green paradise filled with tea, coffee, cardamom, clove, black pepper, and countless fruit trees such as mangosteens and rambutan. The cool mountain air carried the scent of fresh spices, and every turn revealed a new shade of green.
Mr. Bibin explained everything with infectious enthusiasm from how the spices are grown . His love for the land was evident, and it deepened my own appreciation for Kuttikanam’s natural beauty. The breathtaking waterfall – a hidden gem of the resort creates a soothing melody that calms the mind and rejuvenates the soul. As you step into the natural haven, the stresses of the everyday life melt away, leaving you feeling refreshed and revitalized.
We also stopped at a tea factory, where I watched the delicate process of turning tender green leaves into fine, aromatic tea completely natural, with no preservatives or chemicals. It felt like watching art and nature work together in perfect harmony.
By the end of the safari, I realized that one night here simply wasn’t enough. This is the kind of place where you need at least a week to slow down, to breathe, to truly feel the rhythm of nature. For those who practice yoga, meditation, or just enjoy quiet reflection, it’s nothing short of paradise.
Early mornings brought another delight birdwatching. I spotted the vibrant Malabar Whistling Thrush, and listened to their calls echo across the valleys. Later, I tried mountain biking through spice-scented trails, the wind in my face and freedom in every turn.
The highlight, though, was my peaceful time by the lake. I took a small paddle boat into the mist, the water perfectly still, mirroring the emerald hills. I stopped rowing for a while, listening to the gentle ripples and distant bird calls. In that silence, time seemed to pause. When I returned to shore, the sun had begun to break through the mist and I felt renewed in a way words can hardly describe.
As my stay came to an end, I shared a suggestion with the team to consider adding a small spa or Ayurveda rejuvenation center within the resort. The COM smiled and said, “If guests inform us in advance, we can arrange Ayurveda rejuvenation therapy at another location.” His thoughtful response showed just how committed the team is to ensuring every guest leaves with lasting memories.
When I packed my bags to leave, I felt lighter not just rested, but truly refreshed. Kuttikanam had given me more than I expected: peace, connection, and a deep sense of calm.
I promised myself I’d return, next time with my family. Because hidden behind the mist and trees, this enchanting ambience holds an experience that stays with you long after you leave an experience that reminds you what it means to slow down and truly live.
