erala, often called God's Own Country, is an
enchantingly beautiful state located on the
south-western coast of India. Balmy beaches,
beautiful backwaters, coconut groves, vast vistas of
the Arabian Sea, lush plantations of tea, coffee and
spice, wildlife sanctuaries and wooded mountains
create a soothing kaleidoscope of blues and greens.
Kasargod district in the north of Kerala is a land with
a resonant past, myths and legends. Easily accessible
(80 km from Mangalore airport) and yet still
relatively undiscovered, Bekal is a true‘off the beaten
track’ beach destination and backwater paradise.
Sprawled across 26 acres, Vivanta by Taj - Bekal,
Kerala is enveloped in a relaxing yet rejuvenating
ambience. The resort is located on
the meandering Kerala backwaters,
in a stimulating, natural environment
with access to pristine beaches. Secluded and
romantic, amidst the charm and lush beauty of
Kerala, Vivanta Bekal ensures an idyllic holiday.
The architectural style of the resort is inspired by the
Kettuvallam house boats that are unique to this
region. The design has a deep sense of the local
ethos with a sense of space reflecting natural
elements. The stylish rooms inspired by
Kettuvallams, some of which have plunge pools,
offer a private retreat amidst lush surroundings. The
rooms also offer a private courtyard, an outdoor
dining area, rain shower and a soak tub.
