taj BEKAL RESORT & SPA KERALA Bekal Kasaragod is an idyllic little town on the eastern shore of Kerala. It is most famous for the giant key hole shaped Bekal fort surrounded by a golden expanse of beach and meandering backwaters. This historic well preserved fort offers superb views of the Arabian Sea from its tall observation towers, which were occupied by huge cannons, a few centuries ago. The rich heritage of Kasaragod is showcased in its arts and festivals that house fantasies, reflected in the Yakshgana, buffalo races, cock fights and the spectacular pageant of Theyyam. The Vivanta by Taj Bekal Resort & Spa situated in the Kasaragod district is a last frontier beach destination in Kerala. Kappil Beach is yet undiscovered and extremely private. The 66 laterite lined villas and rooms spread over 26 acres draw inspiration from the design of Kettuvallam houseboats and the décor is resplendent in Chitra Pothi art on the walls. At our best kept secret, you can discover some of the most amazing pleasures and experiences life has to offer and rediscover the traditional nobility of Indian hospitality a mere 70 kms from Mangalore airport.
