Our Philosophy
We envisioned Periyar Hills as a sanctuary to breathe, restore, and belong. Within the storied spice hills of Thekkady, Banyan and Brick is unveiling a thoughtful transformation of this estate into an elevated luxury retreat. Immersed in the silent rhythm of the hills, wellness is not scheduled; it flows effortlessly—and it unfolds into a deeply personal, curated journey.
Our Story

Where nature sets the pace, and time slows down.

Welcome to a peaceful hillside retreat where nature sets the pace. Periyar Hills was born from a vision to let travelers experience Thekkady beyond the ordinary, offering a warm, intimate atmosphere tucked away from the crowds yet just minutes from the Periyar Wildlife Sanctuary. Overlooking serene hills and surrounded by dense forest canopy, the villa blends authentic Kerala hospitality with thoughtfully designed, relaxing spaces that invite you to truly unwind.

Here, meaningful travel experiences unfold naturally—whether you choose to spend your days in quiet reflection on-site or explore the vibrant surroundings through aromatic spice plantation tours, boat safaris on Periyar Lake, and wilderness trekking. Periyar Hills welcomes you to breathe deeply, immerse yourself in the local landscape, and discover a curated getaway designed to restore you naturally.

The Estate

Two luxury suites, four heritage rooms, one grand estate

Designed for extended stays, family gatherings and wellness retreats, the villa features two expansive suites on the ground floor, each with private living, dining and kitchen spaces. Four elegant guest bedrooms occupy the upper level, creating a balance of connection and privacy.

Handcrafted timber, natural stone and breathable lime plaster reflect the character of Kerala's highlands, while generous proportions, garden views and thoughtful comforts deliver a refined retreat immersed in nature.
