Sterling Valleyview Resort

More Photos ...

The last place you would expect to see a fantastic piece of architecture would be on the mystical hills of Kodaikanal. Seven km away from a village called Villupatti is located a splendid resort that offers a breathtaking view of the valley around. And when you see shapes like domes, leaves and ships here, you can be sure that it is not a result of hallucination, but a product of an architect's fertile imagination. That's right. Every room at the Sterling Valley View Resort has a dome shaped structure. And while the hotel block is shaped like a ship, the compact block is shaped like a huge leaf and the block with the conference hall and the boardroom, shaped like a lotus. Steepling Hills, verdant dales, gurgling brooks, Kurunji Flowers a veritable dreamscape 2133 mts above sea level that goes by the name of Kodaikanal. Sterling Valleyview, the resort sprawls on a mountain slope overseeing a valley carpeted in green by the velvety grass of the Kodaikanal hills and a few grazing cattle breaking the monotony of the green cover. Panoramic and leisurely construction marks this resort, with driveways up to the cottages and state of the art facilities; Sterling Valley View perfectly compliments the resort chain.
