Date with Nature. Savor the Experience.
A serene family haven at the foothills of Nelliyampathy

Welcome
At Manayunkia Homestay, nature is not something you have to go looking for. It surrounds you.
Set against the foothills of Nelliyampathy, it is a place to step away and enjoy time together.
Wake up to birdsong. Share a meal. Explore the surroundings. Or simply enjoy having nowhere else to be.
This is Manayunkia.
A place to pause. A place to reconnect. A place to remember.

Accommodation
The entire private villa is yours to share with family and friends.
Four air-conditioned guest bedrooms and welcoming shared spaces give everyone room to come together—and room to be themselves.
Private. Comfortable. Welcoming.
