Spa with rainforest views at new Taj Hotel in Coorg, India

20 Dec 2012 . BY Jessica Tasman-Jones

The spa is spread over three levels with views of the rainforest

A new Jiva Grande spa with views of the rainforest has opened as part of the Vivanta by Taj-Madikeri hotel in Coorg, India on 17 December.

The 30,000sq ft (2787.1sq m) spa includes treatment suites, steamrooms and relaxation decks set over three levels, with interiors incorporating recycled wood from local houses.

Signature treatments include the Gudda Bath, which includes a traditional herb massage with nutmeg, turmeric and kalonji, followed by a bath accompanied by incense.

The body polish uses local ingredients like coffee, avocado and rice powder to stimulate, nourish and rejuvenate the skin.

The hotel, part of Taj, Hotels & Palaces, is set 4,000ft (371.6m) above sea level amid 180 acres of subtropical rainforest with panoramic views of the Western Ghats and surrounding mountains.

Luxury villas are spread over 3,300sq ft (306.6sq m) and come with an indoor pool and retractable sun-roof, while the presidential suite offers three bedrooms, swimming pool, private pavilion and courtyard.

Activities on offer for hotel guests include strawberry preserve making, meditation in the Buddha garden, clay modelling sessions, zip line, off road biking and ravine crossing.
