We stayed at Vythiri Resort in October 2008 and what an experience it was. The resort is located 4.5 Km inside the plantation and gives you a feeling of being one with nature.There is a gurgling stream right outside the deluxe rooms and during the rainy season, it becomes a roaring force. The rooms are great too. Ample size, clean, with all facilities. The staff is courteous and extremely helpful. I had trouble with my car and the staff went out of their way to help fix the same. The food is good too with lots of variety. You need to cross a hanging bridge to get to the restaurant and coffee shop which is an experience in itself. Overall a great experience and something I am definitely going to repeat again! The drive from bangalore is great apart from the last 4.5 kms during which you have to motor across mud roads.
On the way to the resort, you cross other towns of Wayanad such as Sultan Bathery and Kalpetta and you can see the various tourist attractions there before reaching the resort.
