Greenwoods Resort is a five star property on K.K Road in the Idukki district of South Kerala, with a guest score of 4.5 out of 5 from 4432 reviews. It sits outside Kattappana and 3.4 km from Thekkady, the wildlife town at the gate of Periyar. The breadth of facilities decides whether it suits you: groups, families and anyone wanting a full service base rather than a simple room.
What Greenwoods Resort provides
Greenwoods Resort is a five star property on K.K Road, and its guest score stands at 4.5 out of 5 from 4432 reviews. The facilities list is extensive.

Leisure runs to an outdoor pool, a garden, a fitness centre, a badminton court and a playground.

Rooms have air conditioning, balconies, non smoking options and family rooms, and the whole property is wheelchair accessible, with free WiFi and free parking.
Where it sits in Idukki
The resort is outside Kattappana, in the wider Idukki district. Kattappana is a town in Idukki district, and the property is 17.5 km from the centre of Kattappana. That places it inland, in South Kerala, on the road toward Thekkady.
Thekkady is 3.4 km from the property. It is a wildlife destination at 900 to 1,200 m: the town at the gate of Periyar, a reserve built around a lake made by a dam in 1895, where the drowned forest still stands in the water. Cardamom country begins at the edge of the plantation belt behind it. The spice smallholdings on the road up are working farms, not demonstration gardens, and the Tamil Nadu border is minutes away, so the food changes within a few kilometres.
Who Greenwoods Resort suits
Greenwoods Resort suits families, groups and anyone who wants a full service base near Thekkady, with eating, swimming, fitness and children's play all on site. It also works for business travellers needing a business centre, banquet hall and reliable front desk. It does not suit anyone who wants a small, quiet property or who prefers to be right in Thekkady itself, because the resort sits outside Kattappana in the wider Idukki district, not in the wildlife town.
Planning your stay
The best months for wildlife around the lake at Thekkady are October to March, and the reserve stays open through the monsoon. If your aim is the Periyar area, plan around that October to March window. The resort is a five star property with a guest score of 4.5 out of 5 from 4432 reviews, which gives a clear picture of what to expect. Book early if you are coming in season.
