ExplorIndya with "Aakriti" - An Eco Homestay



Welcome to Aakriti – A novel concept in Individual Travel to South India.
Aakriti is a Unique Eco Homestay located in the Nilgiri Mountains
of Tamil Nadu in Southern India.


 

The Nilgiris are ideally situated with a drive time of 3 hours from Kerala and Karnataka giving a great opportunity to the Foreign Traveler to experience culture, nature and the unique bio diversity that India is famous for.

The Nilgiri Hills where we are located nestle in the south western fringes of the Western Ghats of India.

The Nilgiris are an exotic nature lover's paradise with a fascinating ecosystem. Listed as one of the 400 natural wonders of the world it is a unique expanse of green on the planet with a vast range of flora and fauna.

Looming over and above all the surrounding hills in the north eastern escarpments, its climate is claimed to be one of the best in the world.

The main economy of our region in Southern India is Tea Based and the entire area is covered by rolling "Green Gold" Tea Plantations. Our Eco Homestay – “Aakriti” is nestled at an altitude of 2050 Meters in the midst of a Tea Estate and its environs provide enthralling excursions into the tranquil naves of nature’s sanctuaries.



The accommodation that we provide is your own independent place in our premises where our home is situated…..thus ensuring proximity to your hosts while at the same time giving you much required privacy and quiet time that you may need whilst on holiday.

What makes us Unique

We pride ourselves by considering our Indian Eco Homestay to have the highest standards of Luxury be it in the form of accommodation, service, cuisine or even mode of travel while you are with us.

We as a family have an immense urge to preserve our Eco System and Ecology in our area. We use many Eco-Practices at our Home such as Water Recycling, Wet Garbage Composting, Solar Heating and Lighting, and we also make our visitors plant the Indigenous Trees of our area called the “SHOLA” Trees after educating our guests on what the state of our ecology is and how important this particular species is to the preservation of our region. To date almost 500 saplings have been planted and we are making our property a haven for many an Indian Bird and a delight for people who like to get up in the morning to the sound of chirping birds.

We bake our breads each morning and juice our fruits each day thus ensuring that you start your day healthy….

We are plastic free on our property keeping in line with an ongoing initiative in our Mountain Region for avoiding Non Bio-Degradable types of Plastic.

We are also a Vegetarian Family… Your Hosts here at Aakriti will provide mouth watering vegetarian cuisine ranging from the far flung areas of the Northwest of India to the local delicacies of the South where we live.

As you read on, you will find the Philosophy with which we formed Aakriti and ExplorIndya

All this we believe also makes us a Responsible Holiday Provider.
