Luxury Travel in Wayanad & Bekal: Kerala’s Hidden Gems

Discover Kerala’s Untouched Beauty

For many Keralans, Wayanad is the most breathtaking region in the state — a sanctuary of lush forests, rolling hills, and vibrant spice plantations. Moreover, this tranquil escape blends mountain grandeur with emerald rice paddies, towering betel nut trees, bamboo groves, and sprawling cardamom, coffee, and rubber estates. Despite its growing popularity, Wayanad remains unspoiled, offering a remote, immersive experience in nature. It is also one of Kerala’s best locations to spot wild elephants in their natural habitat.

Further south, Bekal is a charming coastal destination, home to a stunning fort overlooking the Arabian Sea, a serene beachfront, and tranquil backwater escapes. While weekends bring lively local crowds, weekdays, on the other hand, are idyllic and peaceful — making Bekal perfect for a luxury retreat.
