New Delhi: Located nearly 250 kilometres from Bengaluru, tucked deep within the Western Ghats, Kodagu—better known as Coorg—remains one of Karnataka’s most evocative hill districts. Largely rural and famed for its coffee plantations and gracious hospitality, the region draws thousands of visitors annually with its rolling estates, wildlife reserves, ancient temples, and historic forts. Often referred to as the ‘Scotland of India’ and the ‘Kashmir of the South’, Coorg’s mist-draped hills and dense forests lend it a timeless, almost cinematic charm.
Amid this serene landscape sits Coorg Wilderness Resort & Spa, a secluded luxury retreat designed to immerse guests in nature while offering refined comfort. A venture by Paul John Resorts & Hotels, the resort is perched high above the valleys, offering expansive views, intimate dining spaces, and an atmosphere that encourages guests to slow down and savour their surroundings.
The establishment has introduced a Valentine’s special range of stay experiences that blend wellness, indulgence and romance. From candlelit dinners beneath starlit skies to couple-focused spa therapies, guided forest treks, yoga and meditation sessions, the offerings are designed to foster connection—both with nature and with one another. The emphasis is on unhurried moments—shared silences, long walks through misty trails, and evenings where time seems to stretch effortlessly.
Each experience is crafted to feel personal and understated, allowing luxury to take a quieter, more meaningful form. The resort’s approach reflects a growing shift in travel preferences towards slow luxury and experiential stays that prioritise wellbeing and emotional connection over excess.
By combining immersive natural experiences with elegant hospitality, Coorg Wilderness Resort positions itself as a destination for travellers seeking depth, intimacy, and renewal—making it a compelling addition to upcoming travel and lifestyle features focused on mindful escapes.
Besides Coorg Wilderness Resort & Spa, Paul John Resorts & Hotels’ varied portfolio includes Kumarakom Lake Resort in Kerala, The Paul Bangalore, the colonial-styled Forte Kochi, and Big Banyan Vineyard & Resort near Bangalore. The properties offer curated experiences, ranging from Ayurveda and wellness retreats to urban luxury stays.
