9 best properties near Bangalore to visit for a luxurious weekend getaway

1. Aurika, Coorg - Luxury by Lemon Tree Hotels

With Aurika, Lemon Tree has forayed into the segment of luxury properties and their Aurika property in Coorg is a hallmark of grandeur and unmatched hospitality. This retreat, sprawling across 45 acres, is encompassed by coffee plantations and offers unobstructed views of a lush green rainforest. Right from the location to the weather and breathtaking views, this place, just a 6-hour drive from Bangalore, offers everything you want for a much-needed break.

Their all-day dining restaurant Mirasa serves a wide range of dishes. You can also unwind with a cup of coffee at their coffee lounge Roast & Red, or enjoy a late evening cocktail at Ariva – the bar. We highly recommend getting a massage at their spa, Araya, for an unforgettable relaxing experience. In the evening and early morning, you can partake in a guided nature walk, led by Mr Ganesh, an enthusiastic ornithologist and nature lover who not only communicates with birds but also has immense knowledge about different species of birds, plants and coffee plantations. Don't forget to see the Duck march that takes place in the evening, when the hotel's in-house ducks stroll around the property in a queue. What sets this property apart, besides the stunning vistas and extremely warm and attentive staff, is that it's pet-friendly and has plenty of open space.
