The Pool Villa is a 3,000 sq ft standalone villa at Tranquil Resort in Wayanad, Kerala, with a private pool, three bedrooms each with an ensuite bathroom and dressing room, a badminton court and a landscaped lawn. It sleeps six as standard and up to nine. It is the largest and most secluded accommodation on the Kuppamudi Coffee and Spices Estate, and the only one with a pool of its own.
Five minutes' walk from everything else at Tranquil, the path opens onto a lawn, and then onto a villa where the pool belongs to you for the length of your stay.
Which pool is private and which is shared?
The Pool Villa has a private pool in its own landscaped grounds, set apart from the main cluster. Every other room type uses the resort's shared swimming pool beside the gardens and dining hall, which is 3.5 feet at the shallow end and 5.5 at the deep end, with a jacuzzi alongside. Pool Villa guests are welcome at both.
How is the Pool Villa laid out?
The villa has three separate bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom and a dressing room, a large living room, an equipped pantry with a dining table, and a private verandah overlooking the garden and the badminton court.
The dressing rooms are the detail people notice on the second morning, when nobody is negotiating over a wardrobe. The bathrooms have shower stalls, cotton bathrobes, premium toiletries and a hairdryer, and air conditioning runs throughout.
How many people does the Pool Villa sleep?
The Pool Villa sleeps six as standard across its three bedrooms, and up to nine. It suits three couples travelling together, or a family of up to nine. Everyone gets a door to close and a bathroom of their own, and there is still one table long enough to seat all of you at dinner.

How do I book the villa?
The Pool Villa is booked whole rather than by the room, so rates depend on the number of guests, the dates and the length of stay. Call the resort and you will get a figure for your dates rather than a range.
How far is the Pool Villa from the rest of the resort?
The villa is about five minutes' walk from the main cluster. The dining hall, the shared pool, the Ayurvedic spa and the plantation trailheads are all within that walk.
Meals are served in the communal dining hall, with breakfast 8:30 to 10:30, lunch 12:30 to 3:00 and dinner 7:30 to 9:30. Lunch and dinner can be served on the villa's own verandah on request.
What can Pool Villa guests do on the estate?
Pool Villa guests have the same access to the estate as every other guest: ten mapped walking trails, over 130 recorded bird species, and an Ayurvedic spa with trained therapists offering traditional Kerala treatments.
The trails run out through the coffee, the pepper and the spice gardens, named by how hard they are. Cooking sessions and foraging walks can be arranged on request with advance notice, and are chargeable.
