This review is coming a bit late, it's been 6 months now since we stayed in Kaivalyam, I have made 2 other trips to Hampi and Madikeri after this. But wherever we go, we start comparing our experience with what we had at Kaivalyam. It's a wonderful place with excellent hosts. I had booked this place going by TripAdvisor reviews... More

We stayed for 3 nights here with our kids and thoroughly enjoyed this retreat! The place is in a beautiful (and adventurous) location amidst the Munnar hills. The place has everything to ask for - very good rooms with a balcony opening up to some really scenic greenery, a cosy dining place where wonderfully fresh food is served, a Yoga... More

Kaivalyam retreat is the ideal place to stay in Munnar if you are travelling with kids. Their food is always fresh and there was a wide variety available and we had no worries in letting our kids eat whatever they wanted while we were there. The resort itself is beautiful with over 11 acres of cardamom plantation and with a... More

We visited Kaivalyam retreat with the idea of relaxation. This is precisely what we got there. The retreat is in the middle of a plantation and the hosts Harish and his wife are absolutely amazing in their hospitality. We took long walks, got wet in the rain and had loads of fun. Thanks a ton to Mr. Harish.

Kaivalyam Retreat is located a few km away from Munnar and about half a km off the main street. But, don't let the location worry you. The view of their private spice plantation, a very well maintained at that, from the room is simply stunning. When you visit the relatively noisy Munnar town, the contrast couldn't be any starker.

We stayed at Kaivalyam last week for 4N/5D. Everything was perfect. The hosts were gracious, staff extremely courteous, rooms were neat, views were fantastic and food was very good. The ride to the place itself is a little adventurous (and good fun too) especially if you drive it yourself and not use the services of their drivers. Other than this... More
