The great outdoors just got greater
Unpredictably lavish, nonchalantly disconnected and largely wild, there's more to the Vivanta by Taj - Madikeri, Coorg than what meets the eye. Perched at an altitude of 4000 ft above sea level and nestled deep within 180 acres of a living-breathing rainforest, it is more an ode to mother nature herself. An organic resort, that is also home to over 300 vivid species of flora and fauna. A treat for the senses, with a 30,000 sq ft Jiva Grande Spa, natural springs, Buddha Garden, an outdoor amphitheater and a temperature controlled indoor pool strewn across the premises.
A haven for the curious mind, with everything from off-road biking and interpretive nature trails to sessions in astronomy, pottery and rainforest treks. In all, a model of coexistence, that finally puts to rest the argument between man and nature.
The Vivanta by Taj - Madikeri, Coorg
Quick Peek
Elusively shy, pristinely private, organic at heart, nestled within a biosphere and perched 4000 feet above sea level on an idyllic hill-side, Vivanta by Taj - Madikeri, Coorg promises the next Eden.
Just 7 kms from Madikeri, yet supremely isolated and canopied as far as the eye can see, Vivanta Madikeri is spread across a 180 acre living, breathing rainforest, with more than 300 odd species of flora.
It’s a cocoon for the cosmopolitan wanderlust seeking new rejuves, great mornings and splendid sunsets with “as you please” in betweens.
Retreat
Featuring panoramic views from every room, Vivanta by Taj, Madikeri - Coorg offers 62 rooms & villas and a Presidential Nirvana suite.
Designed to be one with nature the resort is an extension of the rainforest in which it is reposed. Even the smallest villa offers a delightful 74 sq. meters of space with large picture-windows offering stunning vistas from every corner of the abode. Each villa is well appointed with all the creature comforts a contemporary wanderlust desires, not to forget your own fire-place in most of the rooms.
The 5 Luxury Bliss Villas are spread over 3,300 sq. ft. each and come with a built-in indoor pool and a retractable sun-roof.
The Presidential Nirvana Suite is a capacious 9,000 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms, a swimming pool, a living pavilion by the pool, a large separate Jacuzzi, a central courtyard and is fully equipped for in-house bespoke dining.
Invigorate
Vivanta Madikeri houses a Jiva Grande Spa, located in the main lobby block which delves down 3 levels of the rainforest. It offers stunning views of the landscape which lends a mystical aura from every treatment room.
The expansive spa & wellness space sports private treatment suites with their own steam & showers; a relaxation deck; a wellness café and the signature Jiva experience – the Gudda bath that draws from the local ethos of Coorg and is found in traditional households of the region. Generally located in an outdoor setting, water is heated in a copper vessel on a wood fire and is used for bathing. One can experience a traditional massage with the Jiva signature blend, followed by a hot water bath in the Gudda, leaving you refreshed and re-invigorated
Other rejuvenation options include a climate controlled indoor swimming pool, an outdoor open-air pool, meditation at the Buddha Garden, a saunter through the strawberry farm on premise, an amphitheatre for cultural performances or a private dining moment and an assortment of “motif” experiences that are uniquely Vivanta.
