Spice Village Periyar Sanctuary, Kerala

At the peripheries of the Periyar Sanctuary lies a beautiful resort – Spice Village. They have luxurious cottages that blend into the surrounding forestland. Also, they are a great combination of local tribal influences and modern touches. There are around 52 tribal style thatch-roof cottages with verandahs, with swimming pools for you to relax in. The surrounding forest is a delight to wander through. It is full of flowering plants and herbs. One of our favourite things about Periyar is the boat safaris meandering along the river.
