From Pugal Holidays to Naga Resort – a journey of transformation
Originally established as Pugal Holidays, this serene retreat was previously operated by Pumo Resort and is now proudly managed by Naga Resort — a sanctuary of tranquility nestled in the emerald hills of Kodaikanal. Inspired by mist-laden mornings and lush valleys, every corner reflects nature’s quiet elegance. Under the care of Naga Resort, the property blends authentic Tamil hospitality with a touch of contemporary comfort.
Wake up to birdsong, breathe in eucalyptus-scented air, and let the Western Ghats gently restore your soul.
We build around trees, not over them. Our architecture blends with the landscape, and every window frames a piece of Kodaikanal’s magic.
Soft linens, curated amenities, and personalised service – luxury that feels warm, never ostentatious.
We collaborate with local artisans, source regional produce, and celebrate Tamil hospitality in every interaction.
Opened as a cosy family-run guesthouse, welcoming travellers to Kodaikanal’s pristine hills.
Expanded into a full‑service resort, adding cottages and a restaurant with valley views.
A complete transformation – luxury redesign, eco‑initiatives, and a renewed promise of serenity.
