A beautifully calm retreat with a fabulous spa on the undeveloped North Keralan coast, Neeleshwar Hermitage undoubtedly is one of the finest Kerala luxury hotels.

A blend of health retreat and hotel on the unspoilt and tourist-free northern coast of Kerala, it’s serene and stylish; a place to rejuvenate your body and spirit and feel ‘still’. The accommodation sits amongst 12 acres of lush gardens filled with frangipani and banana trees, coconut groves and glorious hibiscus flowers. Built according to traditional style, the whole site faces east and the rising sun. Endangered sea turtles hatch their eggs on the beach and rare birds flit overhead; everything is in harmony with nature and Neeleshwar’s eco principles are spot on. Spend your days in the Ayurvedic spa, doing yoga or learning to meditate, and in the evening watch the sun sink over the horizon and feel at one with your surroundings.

The 16 traditional, thatched cottages are set in a row but nicely far apart, and look out to sea or over the lush gardens. Eight are detached; the others are paired for families or friends that want to be together. Other than this, all are identical. A teak veranda adorned with polished wood pillars is at the front of each cottage, and rustic wicker furniture coaxes you to sit and daydream. Inside, the interior is light-filled and airy, thanks to large windows dressed with opaque blinds. Big double or twin beds have fabulous mattresses and snowy white linen, along with plump pillows. Colourful cushions, hand-woven rugs, contemporary art, silk bed runners and a duck-egg blue wall add a bit of pizzazz while staying in Kerala luxury hotels.Out back, the bathrooms are huge and partly open to the sky. Some have frangipani trees growing right through them. Others look out over a big palm or banana tree in the private back garden beyond. The décor is very natural – granite floors, stone walls in place of tiles – and the solar showers are powerful and refreshing. Thick towels, hairdryers and a range of toiletries are nice touches, and the stylish white bowl sinks, something you would expect in Kerala luxury hotels.

Kerala luxury hotels are popular for their fine dining. You have a choice of 2 restaurants. Annapurna Ma is dedicated to the goddess of nourishment and sits in the middle of the grounds. Roofed with coconut palms and open on all sides, it looks like a lovely spot for a meal and the food sounds fantastic – a mix of North and South Indian, Middle Eastern and European flavours. The Meenakshi restaurant is poolside, close to the beach, and serves seafood all made using catches brought fresh to the hotel every morning by local fishermen. During your stay they aim to nourish your body, mind and soul through authentic and delicious food, the charm of their staff and the Ayurvedic practices for which Kerala is renowned.The Priya Ayurvedic Spa has five spacious treatment rooms ranged around a central courtyard garden. The building has been designed along traditional lines with beautifully proportioned ceilings and elegantly carved pillars. The whole place is airy and well ventilated, with a wonderful calming atmosphere in which treatments are practiced in an unhurried and quiet way. Apart from that the resort can arrange visits to the nearby Bekal Fort, cookery classes, a cruise down the backwaters or cycling on a large network of small roads and lanes that would give you a wonderful experience of local life.

Rajasthan is India’s largest state, yet many tourists only see one tiny part of it. Jaipur luxury holiday, makes up one corner of the Golden Triangle, India’s most famous itinerary. I recently read a rather interesting write up on this vibrant city in the Telegraph. It said that Jaipur, perhaps more than anywhere in India, is where past meets present head on in a noisy, chaotic and utterly wonderful collision that can provide one of the most rewarding inclusions on any Indian itinerary. The walled city is laid out into six quarters. The Palace quarter encloses a sprawling palace complex, now the palace museum and this district also contains Sawai Jai Singh’s observatory Jantar Mantar and the beautiful Hawa Mahal or Palace of Winds. The old city painted in Pink can grip any visitor with admiration. While on your Jaipur luxury holiday you will find the stunning backdrop of ancient forts Nahargarh, Amer, Jagarh and Moti Dungri are dramatic testimonials of the bygone era and a reminder of their lingering romance.

Shah Jahan, famed creator of the Taj Mahal, was entertained here at a chhatri erected specially for him by Ajab Singh when the former was passing through this valley to join his son, Aurangzeb, on a campaign against the Maharajah of Orchha.

Whilst on an India luxury holiday do visit Ajabgarh’s finest present day attractions – the fort and the old temple, dedicated to Shri Raghunathji.

Set an hour or so from Darjeeling town, the Glenburn Tea Estate is a superb destination for luxury adventure holidays to India as it clings to the foothills of the Himalayas, bordering the kingdom of Sikkim. Kanchenjunga, the world’s 3rd highest mountain, dominates the horizon and two rivers, the Rangeet and the Rung Dung, entwine themselves as they run through valleys. Overlooking it all is the Burra Bungalow, Glenburn’s boutique hotel and former home of the estate manager. The surroundings are spectacular and as you are away from the town, you will never be crowded by other people. The Burra Bungalow has only four rooms and therefore it simply doesn’t feel like a hotel. You are a guest and the attention to details of the staff is second to none. Freshly prepared picnics, afternoon tea and fresh juice appear from nowhere across the estate whether you are trekking the 2 hours down to the river or merely mooching in the garden. The food, ingredients for which are grown organically on the estate wherever possible. The homemade breads and chocolate brownies slip down a treat.

The Estate also has a lodge and campsite that offers accommodation for two families, with its two spacious rooms each with an attached bathroom. Both rooms offer spectacular views of the forest, river and Sikkim on the opposite bank. A large verandah is a lovely place to sit and relax on at any time of the day. Kerosene lanterns are used to light up the Lodge at night and dinner is served according to each guest’s preference – either as a candle-lit meal down by the river, or on the Lodge verandah. Barbeques can also be organized, and a bonfire is always a popular option. Awake the next morning with a cup of tea or coffee served to you in bed, to watch the sunrise, and then wander along the river to catch a glimpse of some of the birds that inhabit the area. Cormorants, wild geese and hornbills are just a few of the birds you are likely to see. Return to the campsite for a hot breakfast and perhaps another refreshing dip in the river, before setting off on the day’s activities. It’s a great place if you are on a luxury adventure holiday  to India as you can do hiking, rafting and fishing. This is definitely a popular excursion, and rafting trips of varying difficulty can be organized to suit everyone. When the water level is high enough, rafting trips start at The Glenburn Campsite, from the River Rungeet, and join up with the River Teesta further downstream.  The trip can also be combined with a hike across the Manjitar Suspension Bridge, a short drive to Malli and then a raft trip down the River Teesta. You can also start the rafting from the picturesque Triveni which you would have looked down upon from the Viewpoint picnic spot on your way here from the airport. This is about an hour’s drive from Glenburn. The rapids along both the rivers are graded between II and IV, and certain sections are only open to swimmers. We use well-trained guides at all times and safety is of the utmost importance to us.

India, renowned for its profound cultures, vibrant arts, diverse cuisines and booming economy, can also be a place of sensory overload. It was with this in mind that Philippe developed Anopura: a place to experience and take in rural India – the country’s real heart and soul – gently, at your own pace, and as if from your own home.

Situated approximately an hour’s drive from the Rajasthani capital of Jaipur, and nestled in the ancient Aravali mountains at the head of the beautiful Ramgarh Valley thus making it  a perfect retreat while on Rajasthan holidays. With just two luxurious bedroom suites, a luxury tent, excellent dining, impeccable staff and a location to die for, Anopura certainly warrants its title, the smallest luxury hotel in the world.  Built as a traditional Rajasthani country home with a stunning step-well inspired plunge pool, Anopura artfully brings together the ‘necessities’ of the most demanding Western traveler within a landscape and agricultural environment virtually unchanged in a millennia.

Anopura was designed as a country house, surrounded by farmlands. It has a thatched roof so as to blend into the local countryside and carries a collection of local artworks. From the moment you arrive, the superbly trained staff welcomes you with chilled towels and fresh seasonal fruit juice, where you realize that you are truly in the lap of luxury. As you explore your new surroundings, you can move through the garden, rich with the scent of frangipani and other perfumed plants, arriving through a book-laden anteroom into Anopura’s shaded central courtyard, off which are the bedrooms, the dining room and a small study with satellite television and an Internet connected workstation.

In front of the house lies a stone clad plunge pool surrounded by charpoys, the traditional Indian day-bed, where you can lie back and take in the majestic views of the hills of the Aravali.

At such places, absent is a bazaar with commercial traffic or food stalls.

The Ceylon Tea Trails may well be the most entrancing place I have ever stayed. A collection of four colonial-style bungalows built for British tea estate managers in the days of the Raj, they enjoy spectacular views overlooking the rolling green of Sri Lanka’s hill country. I boarded the old steam train at Kandy for the delightful journey to Hatton. If you are planning a family holiday to Sri Lanka, this will be a thrilling ride through the undulating hills. At Hatton I was greeted by my cheerful driver from where it was a short drive to Castlereagh, the stunning residence overlooking the reservoir.

From the Tea Trails I travelled down to the Yala National Park where I camped inside the pristine forest. The camp set up by Mahoora Yala Safaris was beautifully. Each of us had a tent with a double bed and en suite facilities. Food was delicious and was arranged either by the river offering plenty of bird watching opportunities or a candle lit dinner under a humungous banyan tree. Spending the night in the heart of Yala gives you the opportunity to gaze at the millions of stars glittering, listen to the occasional sound of elephants in river close by and the sounds of the nocturnal creatures around. Yala National Park is mostly open parkland, making the wildlife easier to see, particularly in the December-March dry season. The landscape is varied, with rock outcrops, scrub jungle, lagoons, lakes, rivers and even beaches, and it has a rainy season from April to June. Yala West is one of the few places in Sri Lanka where it is relatively easy to see a leopard, either strolling beside the track or, with luck, draped elegantly in a tree. There are estimated to be around 35 leopards and 400 wild elephants, as well as wild buffalo, musk deer, mongoose, pangolins, sloth bears, macaques, jackals and numerous species of bird. I would highly recommend it to people planning a family holiday to Sri Lanka.

After a bit of adventure at Yala I drove along the southern coastline to arrive at my lovely beach villa.  There are several dotted around the coast between Tangalle and Bentota. My favourite was Apa Villa and for someone keen to have a luxury villa The Reef is a fantastic option. Apa Villa is an elegant, discreet retreat that house seven sumptuous suites, where the mood is stylish and leisurely as you ease into swimwear or a sarong to enjoy the seaside garden. If you have an extended stay at Apa Villa, do visit Mirrisa from where whale watching cruises can be arranged during November – April. Alternatively you can visit Illuketia, a lovely old plantation house, where you can lunch on the verandah watching monkeys swing in the jungle in front of you, and follow your meal with a swim in a pool surrounded by a spice garden. The Reef is a spectacular villa, set in three acres of exotic tropical gardens with palm fringed pavilions and reflection pools that create the romance and grandeur of Sri Lanka. They offer only seven unique and exclusive palatial suites deisgned on Indo – Colonial lines The furniture is exquisite and the entire place is tastefully decorated.  The property boasts of a vast sandy beachfront and huge lily ponds and a fabulous spa. It is intimate, beautiful and a great way to end your family holiday to Sri Lanka.

Himalayan Holidays with IndianExplorations.com

Between 1805 and 1947, the British ruled Kumaon and established their administrative capital in Almora. With a keen eye for the best spots and a great sense of style and good taste, the British discovered Binsar, with its unparalleled natural beauty and sweeping views. Set at 7500 ft in the heart of Binsar Sanctuary, the NandaDevi property was the residence of a succession of District Magistrates from 1856 to 1945, after which it passed into the hands of the Shah family of Almora who owned a store providing groceries and wines to the British. Against a 700 rupee wine bill, Mr Van Renen handed over the property to Shyam Lal Shah who in turn sold it to Vivek Datta, a philosopher turned gentleman farmer from an aristocratic Delhi family, and his Belgian musicologist wife Marie in 1956, exactly a hundred years after it was built. It provides a unique Himalayan holidays experience, where the awe inspiring peaks in an unbroken chain of 500 kms can be contemplated up close. The wild beauty of virgin Himalayan oak and rhododendron forests surrounding the estate urge you to connect with nature, explore its secrets, and return to time and again.

Himalayan Holidays with IndianExplorations.com

Nandadevi Estate is located in the core area of Binsar Sanctuary, which is under the management of Corbett National Park. There are only 5 properties in the higher reaches of Binsar Sanctuary, and they are all separated by kilometres of thick forest. The property, 20 acres of land, comprises of terraced fields and a 155 years old heritage bungalow – originally built by a British administrator in 1854. What makes the Nandadevi Estate one of the most beautiful places in the world, is not only its views but the harmonious way in which the property is naturally set with its own five hills, each with exquisite views, and its terraced fields which once were a thriving farm and apple orchard, and are gradually being restored to their original state a few acres at a time. All efforts have been made so that guests have the unique experience of stepping back in time and enjoying the simplicity coupled by the sophistication. The entire estate is at the disposal of the guests along with the estate staff making it a relaxing Himalayan holiday.

The Estate has two Bungalows – The Goralkot Bungalow, built in the mid nineteenth century, is steeped in history and atmosphere and has been restored in a typical colonial style with wide verandahs, bay windows, and high ceilinged rooms with plenty of light and space. The whole structure is made of stone and wood. The rooms with four poster beds and their arched wooden ceiling and bay windows are furnished with priceless antiques from the Raj.  The Writer’s cottage was originally a barn located in the middle of the apple orchards and farm and was converted into a cottage in the mid 1980’s. An Italian writer called Tiziano Terzani, an icon in Europe as much for his writing as for his philosophy, stayed in the cottage for five years and wrote his most celebrated book there. The cottage is double storeyed and has a wraparound verandah from which views of Nandadevi, framed between two hills, views of Panchachuli and the Nepal Himalayas are visible. Done in pinewood and stone, the cottage has picture windows in every room and sunlight throughout the day.  Built around the concept of light and space, each room, including the bathrooms, have breath-taking views making it a perfect retreat for a Himalayan holiday.

They have recently revived the farm and four acres of land have been planted with vegetables and crops slowly we will bring the property back to its former days when there used to be 4000 fruit trees and substantial agriculture. The property also has a cowshed housing five milk cows, a bull, two riding horses, a few sheep, and chickens. Guests can order their meal fresh from the vegetable garden or dairy and watch the cows being milked. The farm, providing fresh dairy and poultry products and a range of local and exotic vegetables and fruit, ensures guests will enjoy Indian and Continental cuisine cooked to their taste and requirements in the bungalow kitchens.

They have a range of activities like hikes and bird watching in the Sanctuary, camping, horse riding, and mountain biking and day treks inside the Sanctuary as well as visits to nearby places of interest. However, the breath-taking surroundings and the luxuries of old world comforts and home grown, home cooked food will make it hard for guests to move out. Having said that I am sure guests who decide to go on Himalayan holidays want to explore the countryside and for those walks in Binsar Sanctuary ranging from easy strolls to day treks with picnic lunches can be arranged.  For guests who love riding, Horse riding along the old British horse trails in the Sanctuary can be organised. If you want to taste a bit of culture excursions to Almora to visit the Nanda Devi temple, the Old Bazaar and the main production unit of Panchachuli Women Weavers can be arranged.

It’s a unique concept and a one of a kind Himalayan holidays experience.
