Rain Country Resort

If you are a lover of nature, heritage and a calm holiday or weekend, Rain Country Resort is the best place I would say. Surrounded by the green and misty hills of Western Ghats, the resort is located very near to Vythiri and can be accessed with your car (I personally drove) or a hired jeep or taxi.

One of the best and unique features of Rain Country is the presence of a natural pond inside the premises, unlike any other resorts in Wayanad. Also, a natural stream, originating from the forest, runs through the property.

If you like short morning trekking, you can trek to the top of the hill, that is also inside the property. The view of raising the sun from the misty hills is an amazing view that you will never forget. 360-degree view of green hills and clouds from the top point is mind-blowing.

Coming to the cottages, they are constructed in a traditional Kerala style, mostly with wood. The hospitality team including housekeeping, guest service, room service, restaurant, etc. Were very helpful and their service was excellent.

So just like the name of the property- Rain Country, visit the property to enjoy the monsoon rains, heritage, and nature.

This place is in the interior of the Wayanad jungle, which makes it quite a drive from main road. But the hotel staff is very generous, they offer to pick you up from airport/ railway station. Once you reach there, its a heavenly place to be in. They have luxurious comfortable villas for families and couples. There is also a natural pool inside the place. Food is traditional Kerela food. They also have a game zone and garden for kids. Once you are in this place, there is literally no need to leave it,they have all facilities inside and you can just stay there for a week or so. A perfect getaway from city madness and totally in nature's lap. Must visit.

Its a very earthy, homely and friendly resorts. Experience a slice of kerala in this eco friendly resort. The rooms are scattered and are not in one level- this may be taken into account for people with mobility issues otherwise the resorts is at its best during Monsoons and food is authentically regional.

resort is beautiful, rooms are average, food is good, service is good, reaching at the resort is difficult off 4km. huge property lush green forest good place to relax .its a peaceful stay. if planning to visit check with them for parking. vehicles do go its difficult

This resort is 4 km inward from the main road. 

This place is very serene. The doors and structure of the cottages will remind us the old kerala traditional houses. It is a very big property with ample space between the cottages. There is a “natural swimming pool” in the property. Pool is deep and have lot of plants and mud on the floor, this is to give you a feel of a natural water body.

Rooms are big enough. There is a an open space right outside each room to sit and relax. There are lot of water streams flowing through the property, which creates a feeling of forest.

There is a recreation room with some board games and TT. They also have space for badminton. But, be careful of the stones in the play area, we got hurt badly due to one of them.

We took a package with breakfast. It was a good deal. If there are more guests in the property, they arrange buffet for dinner, otherwise, it would be an à la carte order. Food was very nice and tasty!!! You would really enjoy this.

We stayed there for two days, didn’t go out much. If you want to go to any tourist spot, better to go in the morning, crowd will be less. There is a small trekking behind the property which will lead to a small peak. But, be careful, there are leaches on this path, a lot of them. I would recommend carrying some salt in your pocket always to safely remove leaches.

Hope this helps for your next trip!

Only a few drawbacks are there:
1. The approach road is really bad. If you like an off road trip, you would enjoy it.
2. There is no hospitals nearby, and for an emergency to get out of this location is difficult.
3. Leaches!!! They are everywhere; you will have to expect them inside a forest.

To begin with this is a beautiful place to be. 
From the main Wayanad - Kozhikode road or NH 766, (formerly NH212) this place is a nice 3.6 kilometres ride up the hill.
The property was sparsely populated, which was indeed a breather during the pandemic.
The rooms are spacious. 
Some of the cottages have spacious sitouts while ours was just perfect for an individual to relax, read, listen to music or just spend some quiet me-time.  

I would look for another opportunity to spend some more time at this resort.

Stayed there for two days and one night. Had trekking, games, stream walk and lots of fun. Keep an eye on leeches during trekking and stream walk. The food was fantastic. If you feel to give a pause to your mechanical life then this place will help you.


We were two couples and stayed at this resort for 2 nights. The cottages have an ancient Kerala style with woodwork and thus ensures the room is cool even without A/C. The rooms were spacious and the bathrooms we're kept very clean. The food served was tasty and there were multiple options. They have a natural pool where you can get a fish spa for free! They are also equipped with carrom, table tennis( though not all the bats were in good condition) and badminton. There is a view point above the resort within 1 km walk which gives you a short trek experience.It rained when we were there and it was beautiful. If you really love nature and are not looking for a very fancy place, then this is for you. They can also arrange Jeep service for your day trips. The road to resort has a 4km last leg from the main road which is motorable but very narrow.
The manager Joseph and the staff ensured that we enjoyed the stay to our satisfaction.

Literally staying amidst the Jungle - Heavenly feel

Excellent Resort in Wayanad

Business Trip

Close to Nature…with an off road experience

A quiet and serene resort away from the noise.

Mingle with nature. A good stay

Living in the nature

the road to reach the resort is pathetic
only good for off road vechiles almost 4+km in hills to drive from main road, it's fully off road.
they do have jeep to pick you from main road (if you come by your own vechile then parking charge per nite is 200extra) the jeep per trip 500Rs cost either drop or pickup. if you want two way then 1000

they mentioned natural swimming pool but you can't even get inside seems its like normal hindu temple kullam / pond fully dirty and greeny feels very risky that all the place covered with litches 

the entire resort is fully occupied with litches you have to be bear with that. you will be the luckiest person that if you didn't get a bite from them.

food is overall average, breakfast is ok and dinner is average. very slow service they will not refill, will make you wait.

if you want some snacks for your drinks then it's very costly for side dish that too they will provide after you finish your drinks

rooms are good and bathroom are very huge and neat that is really good. one bad part is no privacy between rooms if you speak other room person can hear you clearly. should be very careful, either you have to book private cottage instead like single room for couples.

you can go a short truckking, top to that hill by 10mins walk from resort, it's only good option I felt.

No big entertainment inside the resort as mentioned by them. 

The amount you paid is not worth for it.

You can come and stay for a day or two without going outside by simply sit relax sleep and move out.

Reach the resort only thru off-road vechile

Easier . Safer to reach moon. You may hv read in other reviews that last 4-5 km is off road. It’s understatement. Road is not present. No side road rail. And your car will definitely get damaged. If there is any emergency you need at least 40 mins to reach main road. Why take such risk for non chalant resort.
