The single and double storey cottages are meticulously designed and soulfully crafted integrating the Eastern and Western artistic and architectural elements. The holistic use of materials, raw concrete structural elements, black cuddapah floor, designer wooden furniture is what provides warmth and adds character to the rooms. Every room at Temple Tree Resort has been named after the significance of a flower, assigned by The Mother and has a hand painted entrance signage, a wall mural and a ceramic art that captures the beauty of each flower, carrying a silent message. While the eyes and the mind ponder the details, the heart is filled with the beauty that each flower brings to us enhancing the experience at Temple tree retreat even further.
