Planet Green Plantation Resort is a four star property on Manjilamkolli Road in Kalpetta, the headquarters of Wayanad district in North Kerala. It holds a guest score of 4.1 out of 5 from 418 reviews and lists a balcony. With coffee, cardamom and pepper growing under canopy around the town, the resort suits travellers who want a hill base in North Kerala rather than a coastal one.
What the resort lists
Planet Green Plantation Resort is a four star property on Manjilamkolli Road in Kalpetta. The one facility shown in its listing is a balcony, so the room itself extends outward: the balcony becomes the place to sit with the plantation air and the hill light. That is a simple offer, and the guest score of 4.1 out of 5 from 418 reviews suggests it is delivered with reasonable consistency.
Nothing beyond the balcony is listed, so a stay here is about the room and the setting rather than a long list of extras. The four star rating places it in the upper mid range for the district, and the volume of reviews gives you something to weigh. If you want a base with a balcony and a straightforward arrangement, this one is clear about what it provides.
Where the resort sits
The resort is in Kalpetta, the headquarters of Wayanad district, in North Kerala. It stands 3.1 km from the centre of Kalpetta, on Manjilamkolli Road. 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. The destination is the hills, and this is an inland stay.
The plateau runs from 700 to 2,100 m, and the planting is why the hills stay green rather than clipped. Edakkal, Thirunelli and the Jain temple at Sultan Bathery are all inside an hour of each other. The tiger reserve borders Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, so the forest is continuous in three directions. The Edakkal petroglyphs are neolithic, older than the tourist map.
Who it suits
Planet Green Plantation Resort suits travellers who want a straightforward four star base in Kalpetta with a balcony and a guest score of 4.1 out of 5 from 418 reviews behind it. It does not suit anyone looking for a long list of facilities, because the listing shows only the balcony. It also does not suit a coastal holiday: the setting is inland, among the coffee and pepper of the Wayanad plateau.
Planning a stay
The season runs from September to May. The ghat road is the weak point in heavy rain, so the drive up can be affected outside those months. Kalpetta is the headquarters of Wayanad district and sits 3.1 km from the resort, close enough for the resort to work as an inland base. Plan around the ghat road rather than the resort itself.
