Resorts and homestays in Padinjarathara, Wayanad

Padinjarathara is the nearest town to Banasura Sagar Dam, whose wide reservoir is scattered with small forested islands. Lake-view resorts, pool villas, and cottages are the main draw, and sunrise over the water is a highlight. Karlad Lake, Meenmutty Falls, and the Banasura Hill trek are nearby. The area is a little away from the eastern sights, so allow extra driving time if you plan to visit Edakkal Caves or Muthanga. It suits families, groups, and anyone looking for a peaceful weekend by the water.
