The Cliff Resort is a four star property in Pothamedu, Munnar, in Idukki district, South Kerala. A guest score of 4.5 out of 5 from 437 reviews is on file. It stands 3.7 km from the centre of Munnar. That distance, and the hill weather it sits in, decide whether it fits your trip.

Rooms, grounds and services

The Cliff Resort offers balcony rooms, family rooms and non smoking rooms, with a 24 hour front desk and express check in. Inside, there is a restaurant, a bar and room service, and breakfast is provided. Free WiFi and free parking are included.

Outside, the grounds hold a garden, a terrace and a picnic area, plus a playground, a games room, a badminton court and a tennis court. A banquet hall handles events, and bicycle hire, a shuttle service and laundry cover the practical side. Security runs around the clock.

None of this is verified by a visit: the guest score of 4.5 out of 5 from 437 reviews is the only guest measure on file.

Pothamedu, Munnar and Idukki

The address is Pothamedu Munnar, in Idukki district, South Kerala. Munnar is a town in Idukki district, a tourism hub, and The Cliff Resort is 3.7 km from the centre of Munnar.

The destination is Munnar, a hills destination that is the town itself, at 1,500 to 2,695 m. Tea from 1,500 metres up to the grassland, laid over hills the Scots planted in the 1880s, and Anamudi, the highest point in India south of the Himalaya, sits on the eastern edge at 2,695 metres.

It frosts here by morning in January, ninety kilometres from a tropical lagoon. Eravikulam, the Nilgiri tahr park, is a short drive and closes for calving in February and March.

Who it suits and who it does not

The Cliff Resort suits families and groups who want space and facilities on site: courts, a games room, a playground, a garden and a picnic area, with a restaurant and bar indoors. Couples after quiet balcony evenings fit too. It does not suit anyone who wants to be in the middle of Munnar, since the property sits 3.7 km out, or anyone who dislikes cool, damp hill weather.

When to come and what to plan

September to May is the reliable stretch, with closed-in cloud and landslip risk in the heavy monsoon months. January mornings frost, so bring a layer. Eravikulam closes for calving in February and March, so plan around that. The road up is hill road, and the property is 3.7 km from the centre of Munnar, worth knowing before you arrive.
