Aptly known as the Scotland of India, Coorg lures you in with its beautiful combination of luxury, adventure, history and epic food, while holding you hostage with its soul calming beauty. When in Coorg, the best option available to you for a stay is the beautiful property of Vivanta by Taj. Set in the bosom of a 180-acre rainforest, discover the pleasure of waking up to the chirping of birds and the untamed beauty of a forest growing wild. Savour the luxury of spending the afternoon swimming in an infinity pool looking down the cliff-side. With beautiful Coorg-style architecture, sloping roofs and open-to-sky entrances, a stay at Vivanta by Taj has all the makings of a holiday to remember forever.

Exciting Activities at Taj Vivanta

For a discerning traveller, there is so much that you can do here. From guided tours to pottery classes, to interactive food sessions or spending the day at the state-of-the-art spa, a stay at Taj Vivanta is an ideal vacation spot.

Food Sessions

The best way to understand the character of a place is through its food. When staying at Vivanta, do try the heavenly local delicacy known as Pandhi Curry. Other must-eats on the list are bamboo shoot curry and steamed rice dumplings called Kadumbutto. For a closer understanding of the cuisine, you can also sit at the Chef’s Table and have an interactive session with the resident chef!

Looking for a romantic evening? Dine with 101 candles at the amphitheatre, click glasses at Nook Dining at the Buddha Garden, or experience gazebo dining under the stars for a one-of-its-kind evening here.

Earth Craft

How many times have you thought about taking a pottery class but have not been able to make time, find the right studio or just fit it in your busy schedule? When vacationing at Taj, this is a must do! Station yourself at a clay station and discover the joy of creating your very own clay craft under the watchful guidance of the in-house artist at the 2,500-square-feet Pottery Studio.

Backpacker Diaries

Pick up your DSLR, put on your walking shoes and get marching through the 30-acre of varied fauna in the rainforest which houses your resort. See the world through the eyes of fluttering butterflies, explore the stories nestled in the trunks of Shola trees, and discover your path through the rolling mist. There are a number of beautiful birds waiting to be captured by your camera lens, so do allow yourself to follow the sounds of a whistling thrush or the mating calls of the drongo.

The resort also conducts a private label adventure activity with Muddy Boots, which includes survival training, the Rainforest insider, off-terrain biking and the Vivanta Octathlon.

A Day at the Spa

The biggest reason of any vacation is the element of relaxation, and this is something Vivanta is famous for. Unwind with the traditional wood-fired Gudda bath experience at the Jiva Grande Spa. There are also a number of other spa treatments and services to choose from, that will drain the stress right out of your nerves and enliven your gentle spirit.

Sounds like heaven on earth, doesn’t it? So when are you going?
