Reimagined Mannan Homes

If you need evidence that comfort is easily obtained without intruding on Nature, you don't need to look further than Spice Village's cottages. No fancy carpets. Just coir mats on bare stone floors. Modern bathrooms and interiors, but with a spartan elegance based on simple, natural materials and local woodcraft. No artificial air conditioned spaces here. Just cool, naturally lit rooms and airy private porches. So open a window, and your mind as well. And let your senses be enveloped by the sounds and scents wafting in on the forest air.



It's The Little Things In Life

Elephant Grass Thatch

Our cottages are inspired by the indigenous dwellings of the local Mannan Tribe. Elephant grass, unique to this region, is used to thatch the roofs and we depend upon the traditional skills of these local people to implement it. The Elephant Grass itself is a raw material that is otherwise burnt by the forest officials to prevent forest fire.

Handmade at Spice Village

Our little Handmade paper making unit where we, along with our guests, make handmade paper from the kitchen waste, old fabrics and waste paper, produce the note pads you find in the rooms and the garlands you are greeted with on arrival.

Upcycled Furniture

Did you know that the simple and light pinewood furniture you see in the rooms have been made by recycling old wooden crates bought from the nearest seaport. Our small efforts to tread lightly for 25 years!
