As the name suggests, one is truly destined to be here! Situated 25 kms away from Udagamandalam, at the untouched valley of Avalanchi, Destiny is a breathtaking experience one can ever have in one's life. Surrounded by beautiful mountains and landscapes all around, Destiny is a must visit.
A warm welcome at the reception, we were guided to our room (Columbus), was a standard room and quite accommodating. Each room has a private sit out, and the view one gets is simply awesome! One can't just take off his eyes and catch the glimpse of the beautiful scenario the nature has created. You could possibly take down the picture if you are good at it!
Destiny Farmstay, as the name suggests has its own farm that employs state of the art eco-friendly methods of cultivation, and showcases a lot of vegetables, dairy products and fruits.Besides these, the farm also harvests some exotic herbs. The workers are well trained and knowledgeable in the arena of agriculture. Our two nights at the resort was enchanted with the in-house activities.
Kids were equally excited to watch movies in their specially designed theatre room and games room ! In the end, we did showcase our talent by singing to some old movie karaoke songs, well appreciated by others. They had a good collection of both English and Hindi movie songs. If you are, or not, you must sing just for yourself!
If you are planning to give some time for yourself, and just enjoy the nature, this place will definitely not let you down! Put yourself to the hands of the nature, rejuvenate and relax at the cost of it.
A day or two extended can be spent by visiting the beautifully landscaped Botanical gardens, Tea Factory, Doddabetta Peak, Rose Garden, Pykara River, boating in the Ooty lake. However these places are a bit far from Destiny Farm stay. One may experience the journey of Nilgiri Mountain Railway by taking the joy ride from Ooty to Coonoor.
Finally, do not miss out on trying some delicious and mouth watering home made chocolates available in various flavours, the Nilgiri tea and medicinal oil. I am sure, this is a place you will not regret visiting!
