Olives The Boutique Resort is a four star property on State Highway 54 in Kalpetta, the headquarters of Wayanad district in North Kerala. It has a guest score of 4.7 out of 5 from 609 reviews. An outdoor pool, a restaurant and a games room suit families and groups. The setting is inland hill country, so the decision is whether you want a base in town for Wayanad's coffee and pepper country rather than a remote retreat.

Free WiFi and free parking are included, and laundry is available for longer stays.
Kalpetta, Wayanad and the highway
The address is State Highway 54, Kalpetta, in Wayanad district, North Kerala. Kalpetta is the headquarters of Wayanad district, and Olives The Boutique Resort is 1.1 km from the centre of Kalpetta, about 15 minutes on foot.
Wayanad is a plateau in the north east, reached by a hairpin climb from the Malabar coast, with coffee and pepper under the trees rather than tea on open slopes. Older than the tourist map: the Edakkal petroglyphs are neolithic. The hills run from 700 to 2,100 m, and the tiger reserve borders Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, so the forest is continuous in three directions.
Who should book and who should not
This suits families and groups who want a pool, a games room and a restaurant on site, plus a town base that is walkable. It also suits anyone using Kalpetta as a fixed point for Wayanad's coffee and pepper country. It does not suit travellers who want a remote hillside retreat or a quiet forest setting. The highway location and the town centre nearby are the trade off.
When to come and what to plan
The season runs from September to May. The ghat road is the weak point in heavy rain, so the monsoon months are not ideal for the climb. If you plan to spend days walking in the hills, come between September and May. Book a room with a balcony or terrace if outdoor space matters to you, and use the free parking if you are driving.
