Make nature your home at the Indigenous Treehouse In Kumily, a place that takes you back to nature and your true roots.

Thekkady has all the ingredients to awaken your soul and senses. With panoramic views of a green landscape, rolling hills, and sprawling tea plantations manicured to perfect symmetry, the natural beauty of the region is a treat to the eyes and balm for the soul. One of the top hill stations in Kerala, Thekkady is blessed with an abundance of exquisite natural beauty, which also makes it a great destination for a family holiday as well as a solo getaway. While the landscape of Thekkady is the thriving ground for rich flora and fauna in and around the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary, Kumily is the center for spice trade. Away from the hustle and bustle of the busy town is the Indigenous Treehouse In Kumily, a holiday home nestled in the lap of nature.

The Indigenous Treehouse In Kumily is a one-of-its-kind tree house that promises to take its guests back to nature and helps them embrace their true roots.

The source of power at the tree house is solar and wind-generated. There’s a butler house with two staff members. This is where you will be served traditional vegetarian Kerala cuisine made using local produce. The welcome drink on arrival is either ginger coffee or tender coconut water. The breakfast served at the tree house includes yam, tapioca, boiled banana, purple yam, boiled egg, black tea or black coffee. Lunch is a simple meal of organic rice, sambar, avial, pickle, ‘thoran’, ‘moru curry’ or curd, banana, and jackfruit. In the evening, you will be treated to a local delicacy called ‘kozukatta’ or leaf ada along with black coffee or black tea. Dinner is again simple with delicious rice soup, ‘green gram thoran’, pickle, pappadam, and banana to satiate your appetite. Food is served in indigenous mud utensils.
