Rooms and what is on site
Spezia Natural Resort holds a three star rating and a guest score of 4.6 out of 5 from 213 reviews, which is the clearest evidence of how it is run. The listed facilities are free WiFi, free parking, a garden, non smoking rooms, a restaurant and room service. The restaurant and room service matter most here because the property sits outside Kattappana on the Thekkady By Pass Road, so meals are easier taken on site.
Non smoking rooms suit families and anyone who prefers a smoke free room. The garden gives children somewhere to move about without leaving the property. Free parking is useful if you come by car. Free WiFi covers basic messaging and email.
Where the resort sits
The address is Thekkady By Pass Road, Ottakathalamedu, Kumily, in Idukki district, South Kerala. The setting is outside Kattappana, in the wider Idukki district, and the property is 17.9 km from the centre of Kattappana. Kattappana is a town in Idukki district. The destination is Thekkady, and Spezia Natural Resort is 2.9 km from Thekkady.
Thekkady is wildlife country at 900 to 1,200 m, the town at the gate of Periyar. The reserve is 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 Tamil Nadu border is minutes away, so the food changes within a few kilometres.
Who the resort suits
Spezia Natural Resort suits visitors who want a quiet base close to Thekkady and Periyar rather than a town centre address. It suits people travelling by car, since parking is free, and anyone who wants meals and room service handled on site. It does not suit travellers who need to be in the middle of Kattappana or who expect a larger facility set. The 4.6 guest score from 213 reviews is a fair signal of what to expect.
When to plan a stay
October to March is the main season for wildlife around the lake. The reserve stays open through the monsoon. The property lists non smoking rooms and a restaurant, so a wet day on site is manageable. Book in the main season if the reserve is the reason for the trip.
