Small exclusive luxury heritage boutique resort in Fort Kochi, Kerala
A relaxed serene vacation in a large, elegant colonial bungalow, set in a lovely garden with a swimming pool shimmering in its midst. Add to that an unbeatable location in the heritage area of Fort Kochi. Almost a hundred years old, Tea Bungalow lovingly restored to its classical colonial elegance, offers luxury accommodation in ten spacious en suite rooms.

The vibrant colours of the property greet you as you enter, but it is mandatory that guests drop all cares and worries before entering the wrought iron gates flung open wide in welcome.

 
 
Polished hardwood floors, French windows, floor length drapes, high ceiling red tiled roof and an exquisite chandelier are your first glimpses of what this luxury resort has to offer.

From the leather-polished Bisazza tiles of the aquamarine swimming pool, the finely crafted furniture, the spacious elegantly decorated rooms, the beautiful restaurant, the wide verandahs, those luscious fruit platters filled with the goodness of Kerala's orchards - you know you need do nothing except get ready for the holiday of your dreams.

Come. Experience the gentle luxury of plantation life. Come to Tea Bungalow.

 
Accommodation

Spacious elegant comfortable rooms.
Tea Bungalow has 10 large en-suite rooms each named after a port involved in spice and tea trading from lands around the Indian Ocean. The rooms are named Cochin, Zanzibar, Galle, Mombasa, Muscat, Malacca, Mauritius, Cambay, Goa and Calicut. Each room has deft design touches of each ethnic port.

Spotlessly clean, the bedrooms are elegantly designed to exude, warmth and comfort and an ineffable sense of quiet luxury. Each bedroom has large comfortable beds that guarantee you sleep like a baby. A happy baby, one might add...

 
Tea Bungalow is an art connoisseur's delight. Take a look at the doors of the Cochin suite. The ornate carving is the perfect foil for the simple elegance of the room. There are exquisite paintings on the walls and suddenly the delighted guest comes across an absolute gem like the miniature ancient sailing ship with three furled sails, not riding the waves but perched on a stool pointing at the admiral on the wall. It looks like the Captain is just waiting for his order to hoist the main sail and set off on a new adventure.

The beautifully designed bathrooms have hot and cold showers and world-class fixtures. Specially handcrafted sandalwood soap provided, is made exclusively for Dempo Resorts.

There are wide verandahs with broad comfortable armchairs and teapoys, to do that most pleasurable of all activities - nothing. They allow you to just let the Tea Bungalow Experience flow over you, gently, softly until it is time to face the real world again.

 
Facilities

The Garden is the perfect foil for Tea Bungalow, enhancing its calm serenity. One can lounge on the garden chairs under a lawn umbrella or in the dappled shade of the jackfruit, breadfruit and cinnamon trees, and enjoy the exotic shapes of the bonsai plants. At night the cleverly lit garden is transformed into the stuff of dreams.

The aquamarine swimming pool is lined with leather polished granite and Italian Bisazza tile. Sun loungers are arranged around the pool-deck. Each one provided with a fresh, soft, snowy white towel.
