About Us
A paradise for nature lovers.
Set at an altitude of 3200 feet in the mist-clad hills of Wayanad, Banasura is an ideal retreat for the traveler who looks for a more enriching experience than a mere vacation.
Sprawling across a 35-acre eco-friendly farm, Banasura Hill Resort stands in the middle of a tropical forest with exotic flora and fauna.
Nature plays the perfect host at Banasura.
A sprightly stream gurgles perennially through the property and a tumultuous waterfall cascades thunderously down a rocky wedge.
Heaven made of earth.
Built using mud excavated from the very site that it stands on, the resort is a fine example of rammed-earth architecture and a glowing tribute to vernacular construction methods.
Tribals from the nearby Kurichiya village played a significant role during the construction of the resort, contributing their skill and expertise in building with mud.
Containing the carbon footprint.
At Banasura, we believe in making optimal use of environmental resources, maintaining the ecological balance, and helping to conserve natural heritage and biodiversity.
Thousands of Guadua bamboo saplings planted around the resort create bio-fencing while improving the already pristine air quality. Vetiver grass planted in critical areas prevents soil erosion.
Socially responsible operations.
We value and respect the socio-cultural identity of the local community. We aim to culturally sensitize our guests through interaction with the local community.
We encourage guests to visit tribal villages close by. This not only helps in the exchange of knowledge and wisdom between visitors and residents but also helps in inculcating in the host community a sense of pride in what they are.
A resort like no other.
Banasura offers you an aura of luxury and comfort in a resort that is small enough to be intimate and homely, but spacious and expansive enough to let you feel unconfined.
Your holiday in Wayanad will be incomplete without spending quality time at this luxurious eco-resort that takes as much pride in taking care of the environment as it does in taking care of its guests.
