Getting here
Vega Munnar Resorts is in Chithirapuram on the Ettycity Road, about 10 km from Munnar town centre. The drive follows the valley road through tea estates and eucalyptus groves. Google Maps will get you there, but if you prefer to be collected, our travel desk handles pickups from Cochin International Airport, Ernakulam Railway Station (Kochi) and Coimbatore Airport.
Most guests flying into Kerala use Cochin International Airport (COK), roughly 3.5 hours by road. Those flying into Tamil Nadu often come via Coimbatore (CJB), about the same drive time. The road from Munnar town to the resort is well-paved; the last stretch is along a quiet valley road with minimal traffic. If you are driving yourself, call ahead and we will guide you in.
