WELCOME TO MISTY MOUNT BY MALAIOSAI There are places that slow you down the moment you arrive. Misty Mount is one of them.

Open your curtains in the morning and you will see rows of tea, green valleys, and the Nilgiris stretching into the distance. Misty Mount is not a hotel or resort. It is a private villa designed to feel like a comfortable home in the hills. This listing is for one private room. The living room, dining area, lawns, and parking are shared with other guests staying at the property.
