Kerala's first slow-living resort, in the hills of Kakkadampoyil.
For the simple need to take a pause.
The road begins to climb.

The signal drops.

The trees close in.
The trees close in.
Something in you recognises this pace.
Not as new - as remembered.
You arrive carrying more than you know. You leave having set most of it down.
What remains is you.
Set within a green hill country,
Mauna invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and return to nature, comfort, and yourself.

The land is the luxury
Not the rooms arranged inside it, not the experiences built around it - the land. The rain that shapes it. The forest that holds it. The mist that arrives every morning. This was here before us. Our only role is not to break it.
Silence as a starting point
Not the absence of sound. The quality of air in which rest, clarity, appetite, and real conversation become possible again. Everything else at Mauna follows from this.
Time. Returned
No itinerary at check-in. No activity designed for speed. The hours here belong to you - which, for most guests, turns out to be the rarest thing on offer.
Slowly. For Everyone
A Kids Zen Zone beside the spa. A game room next to the meditation room. This kind of rest was never meant to be solitary, or reserved for one kind of guest.
Most resorts are built to impress.
Mauna was built to recede.
Kerala's first slow-living resort began with a single discipline: don't compete with the land. Don't perform it, don't package it.
Create the conditions to feel what was already here.
Everything you need
for a beautifully restful stay
Pool Villas & Still Water
Water is part of the quiet rhythm at Mauna. Spend your day beside a private pool, floating slowly, watching the hills shift in light, and letting stillness become the main experience.
The Art of Slow Living
Take a gentle walk, sit with tea, read by the garden, watch the rain, or leave the day unplanned. At Mauna, experiences are not rushed; they are designed to help you arrive fully.
Garden & Forest Views
From garden view rooms to forest lodges, every stay keeps you close to the landscape. Wake up to layered greens, soft mist, birdsong, and the changing moods of Kakkadampoyil.
Wellness, Spa & Renewal
Mauna’s wellness spaces are created for rest, recovery, and reconnection — a place for the body to soften, the mind to quieten, and the day to move without hurry.
Restaurant, Café & Comforting Meals
Food at Mauna is thoughtful, warm, and unhurried. The restaurant and café are spaces to gather slowly, enjoy comforting flavours, and savour meals that feel close to Kerala and close to home.
Spaces to Gather, Play & Belong
With a multi-purpose hall, game room, kids’ play area, gym, café, restaurant, and spa, Mauna balances the quiet of a retreat with the ease needed for families, groups, and longer stays.
