Renting out your home in Munnar

Our advice for Munnar

Munnar is synonymous with tea. Endless green slopes, waterfalls, the Eravikulam park where the Nilgiri tahr lives and cool mountain air draw couples, families and groups from all over South India and beyond. Much of the accommodation is small and independent, which leaves room for well-run properties with a clear identity.

The guest you will meet

Honeymooners are a classic segment, along with families on holiday circuits combining Kochi, Munnar, Thekkady and Alappuzha. Groups of friends come for trekking and viewpoints. Most stay two or three nights, so smooth arrivals and departures matter a great deal.

What makes a stay work

• Views. A balcony or window facing the valley is often the deciding factor in bookings.
• Meals. Kerala breakfasts and dinners served on site are much appreciated.
• A local guide network for treks, jeep safaris and tea estate visits.
• Backup power and a clear message on internet quality.
