Sterling Holiday Resorts, India’s leading leisure hospitality brand, announced the opening of its new resort in Vythiri, Wayanad. This is Sterling’s 2nd resort in the bustling tourist destination of Wayanad, adding to its existing resort at Sultan Bathery. With this, Sterling’s portfolio in God’s Own Country extends to seven.
Nestled amidst a lush 4.5-acre green landscape with 27 beautifully furnished suites and cottages, the main attraction of Sterling Vythiri Wayanad is the tranquil rivulet of the Kabini River flowing through the resort. An awe-inspiring 80 ft giant bamboo thicket and a restored Russian army truck provide unique selfie-spots in the property.
Within a 2-hour drive from Calicut International Airport, and 1 ¼ hour drive from Sterling Wayanad, the resort is ideal as a romantic getaway for couples, newlyweds or nature enthusiasts on a quiet escapade. A stay at Sterling Vythiri Wayanad can help one indulge in much needed ‘me-time’ with soul-pampering activities. Breath taking sunrise and sunset views, immersive bird-watching trails or a gentle cycling trip around the resort will help one simply unwind.
Spring Valley – the multi-cuisine restaurant promises exotic Moplah / Malabari cuisine along with select Indian and global favourites. Chemmeen kudampuliyittathu, Malabari peralan and Veg mappas promise to offer food enthusiasts a gastronomic journey across Kerala’s rich cuisines all at one destination.
