Upavan Resort is a four star property outside Kalpetta, in the Wayanad district of North Kerala. The centre of Kalpetta is 11.7 km away. It holds a 4.2 out of 5 guest score from 1624 reviews. With pools, a spa, a restaurant and grounds for children, it suits families and groups who prefer a full facility base in the hills.
What the resort provides
Upavan Resort is a four star property, and guest reviews place it at 4.2 out of 5 from 1624 scores. The facilities lean towards families and groups: an outdoor pool and a separate children's pool, a playground, a garden, and a restaurant. There are meeting rooms and a banquet hall for events, a spa for quieter hours, and a 24 hour front desk with concierge, express check in, laundry and luggage storage. Free WiFi and free parking are provided, and the property is wheelchair accessible.
That list is broad, so the deciding factors are the two pools and the playground, which keep younger guests occupied, and the meeting and banquet rooms, which make the place work for gatherings rather than only holidays. Nothing here is boutique or small: it is a resort with a full set of services.
Where the resort sits
The setting is outside Kalpetta, in the wider Wayanad district. Kalpetta is the headquarters of Wayanad district, and the resort stands 11.7 km from the centre of Kalpetta. The address is Lakkidi Kunnathidavaka, in the North Kerala region.
Wayanad itself is a plateau in the north east, reached by a hairpin climb from the Malabar coast. Coffee and pepper grow under the trees rather than tea on open slopes. The hills sit at 700 to 2,100 m, and the destination is older than the tourist map: the Edakkal petroglyphs are neolithic.
Who this resort suits
This suits families with children, groups attending a function, and anyone who wants a full service base in Wayanad rather than a small guesthouse. It does not suit travellers who want to be in Kalpetta itself, or those seeking a quiet, adults only retreat: the pools, playground and banquet hall mean there is often something going on. The guest score of 4.2 from 1624 reviews suggests solid rather than flawless delivery.
When to plan a stay
The best months are September to May. Heavy rain makes the ghat road the weak point, so if you are travelling in the monsoon, build slack into your plans. The resort is outside Kalpetta, so arrange transport before you arrive rather than expecting to sort it on the doorstep.
