The Postcard Hotels, Goa

The Postcard is a collection of intimate luxury hotels hidden in holiday destinations across India. It recalls an era when holidays were sun-kissed and still, where the days were spent idling and flipping through old magazines, against the backdrop of charming, quiet neighbourhoods.

The Postcard Velha: Far from the maddening streets of Calangute and Candolim, is the secluded world of Old Goa. Or as the Portuguese say -Velha Goa. Click here for more info

Kites Munnar, Kerala

KITES Munnar is a brand new property located in Muthuvankudi village, around 4 km from the town of Anachal, which is some 13 km before Munnar. The property is located on a hilltop hence the views are stunning but there is no plantation around. The website is still not ready. The hotel is promoted by a known hospitality group and promises to offer a luxury stay experience to discerning clients. From the initial pictures we have seen and trade feedback of the locals, it is seems Kites will be one of the preferred hotels in Munnar and in the same category as Spice Tree & Windermere. But it is still too early to come to any conclusions and compare it with our preferred choice in Munnar.

We will monitor this property closely and one of our Cochin managers will check it out personally and share a detailed review soon.
