    Description

    In a beautiful green surrounded spot we run our little but relaxed Hotel with enclosed restaurant. It is only 3 min. walk away from the town center of Thekkady/Kumily, which is located in the Western Ghats at a altitude of 900 m above sea level. That makes the climate very confident all year long.

    As Thekkady is known for its sourrounding natural forest and Teaplantations there is a lot to do and to explore like tours in the Periyar Wildlife Sanctury, or trecks in the Plantations, great views from Hilltops and a lot of friendly people around. If you are into Yoga, we have a Yogaroom free as well for you to use.

    Ourselfes we are a quite easy going couple, Adel from Egypt (the main guy) and Ulli from Germany, which are sure to become friends with everyone who come along to help. Of cause you can stay as long as you want for a good insight in our place and enjoy the whole location.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We wish for our volunteers to have a equal relationship with all people and staff around the hotel, because they will have food and work together. On the other side they will get a deep insight in the life and culture of the friendly people and be able to make good friendship with all of them.

    Help

    All volunteers are welcome who, according to interests and aptitudes, like to put a hand in the Hotel, Pool area, garden and with our guests and being part of our Team for the time of stay. The work is normally not heavy and up to the ability of the volunteer.
    We started an art project in our Hotel as we want our rooms and other walls in the hotel to be unique. So that we invite also people with painting and drawing skills to stay with us.

    Our volunteers duty in the breakfast is only to entertain guest with a greeting or with a chat and not to physically work in preparing or serving food.

    We find that as a great way to break culture barriers and to put a good atmosphere in the breakfast area.
