When Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai are baking, the coffee hills are a relief. Summer afternoons in Chikkamagaluru can touch 30°C, but mornings and evenings are comfortable and nights are cool.
Coffee blossom
The big summer highlight is the coffee blossom. After the first good shower in March or April, the plants flower all at once. For two or three days the estates turn white and smell like jasmine. It is unpredictable, so if you see rain in the forecast, come quickly.
Things to do
- Head out early to the peaks and waterfalls and rest through the afternoon.
- Spend the hot hours by your private bio pool in Haven.
- Visit temples like Belur early morning, the stone gets hot by noon.
- Enjoy evening thunderstorms from your balcony.
Good for families
Summer holidays make this a busy time for families. Our two-bedroom villas and the duplex Seren Manor are popular, so book early.
