Galikere during the WINTER

October to March is the best season to visit this hill station near Bangalore. Temperatures range from 8°C minimum to 24°C maximum, with a constant chill in the shade, inspiring you to explore the lifestyle and scenic beauty of this charming hamlet. Ensure you carry a pair of comfortable walking shoes, hats or caps, jackets or woolens and sunscreen to be well-prepared for your outdoor adventures.

Galikere during the MONSOON


The best time to visit Chikmagalur is from July to September, when nature puts on a show with moderate rainfall, verdant landscapes, winding streams, cascading waterfalls, and cloud-capped peaks. You better not forget to carry a pair of waterproof walking shoes, a warm layer or windcheater and rain gear or ponchos. And nothing beats the feeling of sipping on some freshly brewed coffee to start and end your day.

Galikere during the SUMMER

Your visit to Chikmagalur from March to June will be pleasant, with temperatures fluctuating between 16°C and 30°C. Thanks to the higher elevation and the abundance of greenery around us, you can forget about the scorching heat during the summers here. It is the ideal time to trek, hike, get closer to nature, and even challenge yourself on the mountain trails. Don’t forget to carry your essentials with you.

What a fabulous experience this place has been! Driving through a very narrow access road, I wondered what I was getting into. But once I reached the property, boy! What a pleasant surprise awaited me! Fabulous rooms, tastefully handpicked artefacts, breathtaking views!! The cuisine and service was possibly the best part of this trip, with ever smiling waiters, attendants and possibly one of the best chefs I have ever met. Chef Shaikh Yasin Razvi, you are talented! Thank you for all that you did to make our trip so comfortable and memorable.

Can we book individual rooms?

Are the charges inclusive of all amenities, food, and experiences?

Yes, unless you are the Bear Grylls kind who can survive off the land, all our packages include all meals, high-tea, and soft beverages. And some signature experiences like hikes, nature walks, cycling, outdoor dining and wellbeing experiences of minimum 3-night bookings.
Is the villa suitable for families with very small children?

While we have taken care of safety, our secluded mountain villa and itineraries are designed to host guests who are at least 12 years of age and older. Younger children will require constant supervision, and we leave it to the parents to make an informed decision based on individual choice.

As the villa is located in a forested area frequented by wild animals, which could alert or unsettle pets and endanger their safety, we do not allow pets.  

Is a jungle safari included in the itinerary?

No, a jungle safari is not included in the itinerary as it is dependent on a ticketed entry dependent on the Forest Department. We can arrange for a safari if you are interested. Do let us know in advance for us to plan for the same and avoid any last-minute disappointments. Weekdays are better to avoid crowds and soak in the undisturbed beauty apart from the sightings.

We offer Wi-Fi dongles at the villa, which can be plugged in to use limited connectivity. Due to the nature of our location, data speed may vary. We suggest you switch off your devices and be completely immersed in this vacation. JIO and Airtel work best at the location for voice calling and data.
