Coorg: Our experience at the Tamara
The resort is nothing less than magical.
We booked two nights of stay at The Tamara for my wife's birthday. Reaching from bangalore took 6 including the breakfast pitstop.
Upon arriving, we started seeing the greatest hospitality from The Tamara staff - right from check in experience, to ensuring our preferences getting met.
We booked a Superior Luxury Cottages for unobsructed views of the valley (pro tip - Book Superior luxury cottages only. Normal Luxury Cottages have a plantation view, the view from the balcony is limited).
The resort had so many things and activities that even two days felt short:
- Multiple natural waterfalls within the resort
- Temperature controlled pool + another forest-facing pool
- Sauna (free)
- Activity room (lots of games to easily spend 2-3 hours)
- Multiple activities (chargeable): Trek, off road jeep, bird watching, coffee plantation tour, yoga sessions, etc
But we liked most was the Sauna experience, the beautiful waterfalls and hidden trails within the resort.
Few fun facts their staff told us
- Land parcel of 20+ acres; this resort took 6 years to build.
- Owner is co founder of Infosys
PS: Many commented to put the room rates.
This is a reasonably costly resort. We booked superior luxury cottages with all three meals for 2 nights. Price per room was ~37k. We utilised our inifinia credit (smartbuy) to get accelerated rewards. This helped bring the cost down to 25k.
I know this is very costly for many of us including us, but some special occasions deserve this.
Trust me 25k is totally worth it for one night stay itself.
