A gem amidst the spices
We loved the Spice Garden. It is a beautiful property set amidst hillsides growing cardamom and pepper, with attractive buildings and blossoming gardens. The staff are warm, friendly and helpful. And the local activities are great - we enjoyed a visit to a tea plantation and a wonderful walk in the Periyar nature reserve, both booked through the hotel. We would stay there again if we come back.

It was an excellent property nested in nature. Very well designed and furnished, our 2 cottages, one with a pool and other with a large patio were a treat to stay in.

Our stay at Shalimar Spice Garden was the highlight of our time in South India--we only wish we had booked more than just two nights! The setting is idyllic, the staff is lovely, the food is delicious, and overall it is an island of beauty and serenity. We cannot recommend it highly enough!

Excellent.
Excellent. wonderful location. The Nature walk around the property is a must! Friendly staff. Very pretty hotel and good service. The 'Tiger Reserve' was a bit of a disappointment but still a nice visit but what really makes this place is the lovely town of Kumily and the Spice gardens all around. Wonderful. Really enjoyed our stay.
