Kerala's premium hospitality scene has once again received global recognition, with Windy Woods, an opulent resort in Munnar owned by the Chandys Group, being honored with TripAdvisor's Traveller's Choice Awards.
This year, Windy Woods secured third place globally in the 'Best Luxury Hotels' category, while its sister property, Chandy's Drizzle Drops, earned second place in the 'Best Boutique Hotels' category. These consistent wins mark the fourth consecutive year the Chandys Group has featured among the global elite in the hospitality industry.
Munnar, often described as a paradise on earth, attracts thousands of international and domestic travelers each year. With this recognition, the allure of Munnar is set to grow further, giving a fresh boost to Kerala's tourism sector. The Chandys management noted that such accolades will bring significant positive momentum to the state's travel industry.
