A Luxury Resort in Sakleshpur — Your Weekend Getaway from Bangalore
Tucked into the misty hills of Haragarahalli, Sakleshpur in Karnataka's Hassan district, Hong Sau Resort is a boutique luxury resort in the heart of the Western Ghats — about 240 km (a 5–6 hour drive) from Bangalore via NH-75 through Hassan. Surrounded by coffee plantations, cardamom estates and the rolling green of the Malnad region, it's one of the most refreshing weekend getaways from Bangalore for anyone craving cool mountain air, birdsong and a slower pace.
Rooms & private-jacuzzi villas
Choose from spacious Executive Rooms, indulgent jacuzzi rooms and Luxury Villas with private jacuzzis, and our heritage Thotti Mane cottages — a tribute to traditional Malnad courtyard homes — plus family rooms and a group dormitory for larger parties. Every stay is GST-inclusive with complimentary breakfast, high-speed Wi-Fi, and uninterrupted valley views. Whether you want a romantic jacuzzi villa for a honeymoon or a comfortable base for a family holiday, there's a room for every kind of traveller.
Things to do — jeep safari, bonfire & the Western Ghats
The resort sits minutes from some of Sakleshpur's best-loved sights. Book an open jeep safari to the Mukanamane waterfall, Kaginaltare viewpoint and the famous Hosahalli film spot; spend the evening around a bonfire with barbeque under a sky full of stars; or arrange a private candle-light dinner for two. Days are made for trekking, plantation walks, bird-watching and a dip in the swimming pool, while our on-site restaurant serves authentic Malnad and Indian cuisine. It's an easy add-on to the classic Sakleshpur circuit — Bisle Ghat, Manjarabad Fort, Agni Gudda and the green tunnels of the Western Ghats railway.
Perfect for couples, families & corporate offsites
Hong Sau Resort is equally at home hosting a quiet couples' retreat, a multi-generation family vacation, or a corporate offsite and team outing near Bangalore. Larger groups can combine villas, cottages and the dormitory for an end-to-end team-building retreat in nature — bonfire evenings, group treks and safaris make for the kind of informal bonding that a conference room never will. Unmarried couples are welcome with a valid government ID.
Best time to visit & how to book
Sakleshpur is beautiful year-round, but the monsoon (June–September) turns the Ghats emerald and the waterfalls thunderous, while October–February brings crisp, misty mornings ideal for trekking and coffee walks.
