Vistara Resort

Words cannot do justice to a place like this located in our very own God's own country, Kerala. If you are looking for a place to explore with family, especially if you have kids, then Wayanad is the place and Vistara is the resort you must choose. I picked Vistara from MakeMyTrip, purely based on reviews and photos and I was totally happy with the decision. Wayanad is about 3 hours drive from Kozhikode airport, and you can plan your taxi pickup and drop via MakeMyTrip which makes it very easy and reliable. Wayanad has so many interesting activities and places to see, that 5 days minimum is a must with family. Wayanad Wildlife Sanctuary Safari, 900 Kandi Off Road adventure, Honey Museum, Vythiri Bird Park, Go Karting (Mountain Race Wayanad) are some of many interesting places to see. There are so many adventure activities spread across Wayand that you will struggle to do it all in a week. Vistara Resort, located right next to the Karapuzha Dam/ Reservoir is a drop from heaven. Anyone from the city will take time to adjust to the clean air and lush green hills situated on the banks of the reservoir. I can rate the resort 5/5 for its ambience, location, service, staff, food, rooms and amenities. My experience was not short of a 5 star big name resort as the people in this resort gave it a difference experience to me and your family. Thanks to Bijo PM (Manager) for taking care of my family’s needs for a whole week. We had so many demands every day and without hesitation he was able to fulfill. Amazing one *** army. Srijil and Sreshma, took care of my family in the sap, we really need the right therapy to rejuvenate and recover from our fast paced life. Big thanks to Praveen, Akhil (production team), Moorthi, Hussain,Yadhu (service team), Rahul, Yusaf, Shanker , bibin , Raju, siraj (house keeping team) Sreejitha, jinsha , jijitha, Anjana - (front office team). Also thanks to the Chef for making really delicious food. We preferred to eat at the resort daily for his cooking. Also don’t miss talking to Mohanan (Security), he is a *** of 1000 stories to entertain. I really miss Vistara, it felt like family taking care of family and I look forward to going back in the coming years if not months.

I recently visited Vistara with my friends, and we booked the Sky Villas. We were welcomed with violet water lilies and spice tea such a pleasant and unique touch. We stayed for two nights and had an amazing time. One of the highlights was spending fun time in the pool with my buddies after a long time. The live music at night was another memorable moment ,the violinist absolutely nailed it, and with the campfire beside us, the whole evening felt incredibly satisfying. On the second day, Vistara arranged a hike to Chengeri Hills. Though I’m not usually a fan of treks, I really enjoyed this one since it was short (just a 30-minute uphill walk), and the view at the top was breathtaking with mountains, mist, lakes, and the sunrise all coming together beautifully. We were keen on trying authentic Kerala cuisine, and Vistara did not disappoint. The food was excellent, and a special mention goes to the Vistara Chicken Fry, easily one of the best dishes I’ve had in Kerala. For lunch, we had fish curry meals with chicken, ***** with a variety of interesting veg curries. The service required special mention, with Mr. Bijo and his team at the restaurant ensuring everything was perfect. On our last night, we had a celebration for our newly married buddy. The team arranged a cake-cutting ceremony with DJ music, making it even more fun. After a long time, all of us got together for an unforgettable meetup, and this trip will always hold a special place in our memories!

One of the most wonderful hospitality experience I have had in recent times. The staff were well informed, polite, courteous and very professional. I can recall every moment of my stay even after a week. From the welcoming on arrival, the dinner, breakfast, gym, pool, the balcony in the room overlooking the lake, everything was just mesmerising. Three nights passed very soon. I look forward to visiting this place again in future. Keep it up team. All the best.
