OYO 7966 Laacienekkas Valley Resort

OYO 7966 Laacienekkas Valley Resort is a 3 star property outside Munnar, in the wider Idukki district of South Kerala. It lists breakfast and free WiFi, and holds a guest score of 4 out of 5 from 247 reviews. The deciding factor is the setting: you trade Munnar town for a quieter hillside base.

What the resort lists

OYO 7966 Laacienekkas Valley Resort is a 3 star property. Its listed facilities are breakfast and free WiFi, so the day starts with a meal on site and a connection for planning routes or keeping in touch. There is no longer list to work through: what is here is what you get.

The guest score is 4 out of 5 from 247 reviews. That is a record from past guests, not a promise, and it sits in the upper range for a 3 star place. Read it as a sign that the basics are handled well, not as a statement about extras that are not listed. For a hill stay built around being out in the tea country, that may be enough.

Where the resort sits

The address is Anachal Sengulam Road, Idukki District, Anachalmunnar 685565, Kerala. The setting is outside Munnar, in the wider Idukki district, and the property is 7.9 km from the centre of Munnar. Munnar itself is a town in Idukki district, a tourism hub, and the destination here is Munnar, a hills destination. The destination sits at 1,500 to 2,695 m.

This is South Kerala, inland, in the high tea country. Tea from 1,500 metres up to the grassland, laid over hills the Scots planted in the 1880s. Anamudi, the highest point in India south of the Himalaya, sits on the eastern edge at 2,695 metres. Being outside the town means you are not in the middle of the busiest streets, but you still have Munnar within easy reach by road.

Who this place suits

It suits travellers who want a simple 3 star base in the Munnar hills with breakfast and free WiFi arranged, and who do not need a long list of facilities to enjoy the area. It does not suit anyone who wants to be in the centre of Munnar, since the property is 7.9 km from the centre of Munnar, and it does not suit those who need more than breakfast and free WiFi on site. If the hills and the tea country are the point of your trip, this works.

Planning a stay

Come between September and May. The heavy monsoon months bring closed-in cloud and landslip risk, so they are best avoided. January mornings frost here, ninety kilometres from a tropical lagoon, so pack for cold starts. Eravikulam, the Nilgiri tahr park, is a short drive and closes for calving in February and March. Check those months against your dates before booking.
