We stayed for 6 nights at Beyond Eco Living. First of all we want to thank the hotelmanager Ashiq and his Chef Benson, his coworker Ajith and all his other colleagues for the wonderful stay at Beyond Eco Living.
It has been one of our best stays ever. As the service went litterly beyond! Ashiq and his coworkers were helping us (from own initiative) with anything possible: from bringing the umbrella to our room when it was raining upto bringing us to an Aryuvedic treatment and taking us to a beautiful viewpoint. Besides it was wonderful to have nice chitchats with the Ashiq and his coworkers during dinner or breakfast. So that we could get to know them a little better.
Also the food was amazing. Benson and his coworkers made sure that all was healthy, varied, and according to post-Panchakarma diet.
Besides, the property itself has a very calm and beautiful interior and atmosphere. Everything is hygienic and clean, also the swimming pool is cleaned every day.
To be honest, there is nothing what could be better. We will miss Ashiq and his team and wish them all the best for the future.

Stayed at Beyond Eco Living for one night last Saturday with a group of 10, and honestly it was worth it. The whole place has a very natural, eco-friendly vibe and the surroundings are peaceful and green. The rooms and buildings look aesthetic and blend nicely with nature. The staff were all very friendly, and the manager Ashik was especially helpful with everything we needed.
The pool was a highlight — very clean which made it even better. The breakfast on Sunday morning was really good too. The resort is located in Valara near Neriyamangalam, not exactly in Munnar, but still a great spot for a calm and quiet stay. We also did a short trek in the morning since the property is near a hill, and the view from the top was beautiful.
They also provide free Wi-Fi, and they had a huge JBL party speaker that guests were allowed to use, which made the night more fun. We even brought our own marinated chicken and they gave us a proper spot and setup to grill it, which was a great experience for our group.
There are a few activities available like archery, campfire setup, pool games, cycles, carrom, badminton, and a basketball hoop but some of these need improvement. These are small things, but fixing them would definitely make the overall experience better.
They're also planning to expand and add more features, especially for the monsoon season when water flows down from the hill and creates a pond-like experience.
Overall, a really good stay with a relaxing vibe, great natural atmosphere, and friendly staff. Definitely a nice place for a short getaway with friends or family.

We just had a girl's trip — me and my aged mother, who has difficulty walking and several health issues. Even I have my own health concerns. Honestly, I was a bit anxious and embarrassed that we were travelling alone, driving up the winding roads as it was getting dark.
But the team at Beyond Eco Living kept calling me continuously, reassuring and guiding us the whole way. They even sent a staff member to the main road to escort us safely to the property. That gesture touched my heart deeply.
To be very honest, I didn't have much expectation until we reached there. I have stayed in many resorts before — but this place did not treat us like guests. They embraced us like family.
I truly felt like I had returned to my own home.
The word “hospitality” feels too small to describe how Ashish treated us. He literally became like a son to us, helping us with everything and caring for my mother with such patience and warmth.
The property is neat, peaceful, and beautifully quiet. The food was prepared exactly to our taste and was absolutely delicious.
I would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking not just for a stay, but for warmth, care, and a feeling of home.

We stayed in this wonderful property in between beautiful nature to escape Munnar and Ooty tourism. We loved our stay at Beyond Eco Living because it feels like home right away.
We were allowed to use the property’s bicycles and took a nice walk around the village and even reached the Valara waterfalls which was very nice. For any information we could always ask Ashiq the manager for help. He took amazing care of us and showed us around the garden explaining everything about different fruits and spices.
For the first time during our trip in Kerala we really had the feeling of finding a place where nature and the eco system is protected (they filter the natural water, keep the plants growing and buy all the foods from organic farmers in the region).
Most important for us was the outstanding food that was served to us by the amazing in house chef - best food we had in Kerala!
We will definitely come back
