Here is an opportunity to spend a holiday amidst the sounds of birds, smells of the forest, fresh food, and pure air. In a time when quietude is the highest luxury, our resort in Coorg offers purer kind of peace in nature’s gentle rhythms.

Unlimited Peace- Meriyanda, Coorg

A boutique resort in Coorg's hauntingly beautiful wilderness, exquisitely perched on a mountaintop, naturally protected by the River Hathi below. With charming cottages set in a gorgeous coffee estate, Meriyanda is a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. The moment you reach the resort, peace, and tranquillity of the place eases your stress. The estate is straight out of a picture postcard, complete with a river and a hanging bridge. If you love nature and enjoy the serenity and look forward to sharing some special moments with your loved ones and family, then Meriyanda is the place to be!

Get your "Me" time - Meriyanda, Coorg

The architecturally superior wooden luxury cottages, stilted and perched high above the ground, find a unique way to blend with nature. With individual wide decks that overlook Coorg’s evocative landscape, and large glass panels that bring the green valley, its towering trees and the coffee plantation inside your room as natural wall paper. The luxury and privacy of these cottages and the enchanting chorus of forest birds outside make this a splendid and refined haven for family getaways, honeymooners, nature lovers and anyone seeking an escape from the ordinary.

Bond with your family with riverside picnics, bonfires, barbecues, board games or just bask in the sun, gazing at the hills, watching birds on the forest walks, sauntering in the shade of the woods, luxuriating at the spa,  it might just make the bond grow even richer and the calm grow still deeper

Just outside your cottage specially designed trails let you get even closer to the sounds and smell of Coorg, so immerse and let country side take care of the rest. We offer a choice of activities and things to do at the resort to make your visit special.

Meriyanda is conceived as an eco-resort and designed to harmoniously blend in with its surroundings, preserving the natural beauty of the region, committed towards sustaining the diversity of the Coorg's natural and cultural environment.  We at Meriyanda accommodate and entertain guests in a way that is minimally intrusive to the environment. Trees were cut down at least, and cottages built around them on stilts which connects us with flora, fauna and trees in our “Nature Deficit disorder” lives.

The Joy of receiving a postcard

I received many e-cards last week for my birthday, many more text messages, and inbox-clogging emails…

….And I also received a postcard from my aunt, who lives in this beautiful town, peacefully enjoying the most luxurious life – breathing unpolluted air, and eating the vegetables picked from her own garden.  She loves to send postcards – with her loving few lines.  When I saw that, I could sense the thoughtfulness and her sincerity in carefully penned words of love.  It is a precious gift, I felt sweetly peaceful touching something that was touched by her just a few days ago.  It was not sent in a hurry or sent electronically.  It has that personal touch that you could never feel when you receive an e-card, text or email!  I felt royally special!

When I travel, I try to send postcards to friends and family whenever I can, instead of speedy emails, and instant texting.  It takes time, but it travels through time and land to reach the recipient and carries this beautiful charm with it.  Call me old school but I don’t want to miss an opportunity to sprinkle a smile with a dash of surprise on the face of the recipients.

Hear ye, hear ye. It is not 1970, It is 2012. Gadgets rule the world and control the way people communicate!  You could throw in your FAQs!  “Where is the time to go search for a postcard with the picture I want to send?  Where are the shops that sell postcards these days?  “Why would I want to do something old fashioned?”

Blend the past and present! Bring in the best of both worlds. With the PC you have, any picture from your digital camera, cell phone, can be made into a postcard.  You sure must have digitalized every precious memory… all those clicked and treasured magical moments from your vacation, pictured expressions of people, frozen moods of nature, captured rare action in a sporting event or an adventurous attempt….are potential candidates to become a postcard.   Make your own, buy what you like, use what is available…doesnot matter.  All you need to do is, do it with your heart.  When it is received it sure will reveal the embedded thoughtfulness of the person it came from.

How to experience the joy of receiving a postcard?  Start by sending one!  Let someone get that Midas touch and let the fun begin.

There are plenty of websites that could offer step-by-step guidelines to print your own postcards. For example

And recently I read an article that was interesting; Facebook lets you send real photos as postcards.
