Fragrant Nature Resorts are in tune with the beauty of Kerala

Kerala is the southern tip of India and of this immense country it represents the most serene and perhaps the most authentic face, thanks to its genuine and welcoming people. The Fragrant Nature Hotels are a great choice for touring Kerala and enjoying the nature and culture of this fascinating region, staying in facilities that are characterized by sober elegance and a relaxing atmosphere.

The Fragrant Nature Kochi, a 5-star boutique hotel, is located in Cochin, where you can feel the charm of colonial culture, in the historic heart of Mattanchery. Portuguese, British, Arab and Chinese influences are reflected in the architectural elements, culture, language, clothing and lifestyle of this city. The resort itself tells the colonial history of Cochin, being in the same spaces as the former East India Company office, in a majestic building with the first clock tower in Fort Kochi. The rooms have huge spaces and are luxuriously furnished. The names of the different types of accomodation are strongly evocative: Royal Dutch Suite, Ocean Blue Suites, Duke's Chambers.
 

One of the two restaurants boasts a terrace overlooking the harbor lights: enjoying here a seafood dinner under star-studded skies is unforgettable The Prana Wellness center offers well-designed Ayurvedic wellness experiences. To ensure maximum results, pesticide-free food products are used, grown by Fragrant Nature itself. 
Finally to satisfy the curiosity of the melting pot of history and culture of this city, which with its spice market attracted traders from all over the world, nothing better than pedaling along the streets of the historic center of Cochin.
 

Moving into the interior of Kerala, in Munnar, Fragrant Nature takes the charm of a mountain station in the midst of tea plantations. The views of the hills are very romantic when they are shrouded in mist. All the rooms have beautiful views of the green mountains. The interiors are elegant and welcoming in every room. The top is La Wild Orchid Suite with private bathroom overlooking plateaus and separate living and sleeping areas. 

The Glass House, the restaurant with grilled specialties, is entirely glazed to favor the view of blue skies and mountains by day, and starry skies in the evening. The spa offers the most exclusive Ayurvedic therapies that Munnar has to offer. Many activities can be suggested to explore the area of Munnar: from the easiest bike routes to the most challenging ones on mountain bikes, from short walks to trekking for longer routes, from campsites near waterways to visits to tea plantations.

Finally Kollam was the first place in Kerala chosen by Fragrant Nature to open a resort. The key words here are health, relaxation and psychophysical wellbeing. Aurveda and Yoga, two disciplines widely practiced in South India, find a perfect scenario in the region of backwaters, which embody the lifestyle of southern Kerala. "Simply be yourself" seems to be the warning that emanates from an intact nature and from a gentle and kind people.

The resort is surrounded by lush gardens and offers unparalleled views of the lake and canals. You can stay in one of the 13 Lakeview Rooms or 15 Premium Lakeview rooms with balcony and private garden. The only villa offers an artistically designed bedroom and a living room with panoramic views of the backwaters, a private pool, a garden and a beautiful balcony. Excellent the two restaurants while it’s worth mentioning the Ritulahari coffee, located in a particular point, where the lake meets the river. Sip a drink at sunset watching the birds fly over you, listening to the slow rhythm of the oars of boats gliding home. Capturing such a simple yet intense moment is unmatched.
