The romance of Rosetta Sakleshpur


In a world that is increasingly on the fast track, Rosetta Sakleshpur invites you to slow down. Tucked away in the misty folds of Karnataka’s Western Ghats, this luxury resort offers more than just a getaway—it offers a curated experience of nature, wellness, and thoughtful hospitality. Spread across 100 acres of coffee and pepper plantations, Rosetta blends sustainability with indulgence, making it a good choice for travellers seeking peace and quiet.



In this AIRDA feature on Rosetta Sakleshpur, we chat with a young couple from Bangalore who have just spent a quiet weekend at the resort—and explore what makes it so special in the world of luxury and immersive travel.

Wrapped in morning mist and the quiet rustle of plantation leaves, Rosetta Sakleshpur offered Deepak and Shreya a weekend that felt like a soft exhale. For Deepak—who leads delivery teams at a Fortune 500 company—this was a rare chance to step away from structured schedules and immerse himself in nature’s rhythm. Outside of work, he’s a sports enthusiast and passionate biker, with a deep love for travel that’s rooted in movement, discovery, and reflection. The resort’s serene trails and thoughtful hospitality mirrored his own need for balance and clarity, turning a short getaway into something quietly transformative.



Location & Setting: A Front-Row Seat to Nature

Just off the Bangalore–Mangalore highway, Rosetta Sakleshpur is conveniently located—making it accessible yet blissfully removed from urban noise. The resort is enveloped by dense plantations and forest trails, offering guests a front-row seat to nature’s rhythms. Whether you’re watching the morning mist roll over the lake or listening to birdsong at dusk, the setting encourages reflection and reconnection.

“It felt like the forest was breathing with us. Every corner of the property is a quiet invitation to pause.” —Deepak


Property Overview: A Setting for the Perfect Holiday

The resort’s architecture is understated and earthy, with structures that blend into the landscape rather than dominate it. Rosetta’s design philosophy centers on low-impact luxury—occupancy sensors, water conservation systems, and green initiatives are seamlessly integrated. The layout encourages exploration, with winding paths, open courtyards, and landscaped gardens that invite guests to wander.



“Rosetta doesn’t shout luxury—it whispers through thoughtful design and gentle hospitality.” —Shreya


Rooms & Suites: A Choice of Suites and Family Rooms

Rosetta offers a range of accommodations including Teak Suites, Pepper Suites, Robusta Suites, Cardamom Suites, and Family Rooms. Each suite is crafted with natural materials and ambient lighting, featuring open-air showers, dual televisions, convertible beds, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Views of gardens, lakes, or plantation trails add a meditative quality to the stay.



“Our room overlooked a lily pond and felt like a private retreat. The open-air shower was a beautiful surprise.” —Deepak


Amenities & Wellness: Plans for the Whole Family

Wellness is woven into the Rosetta experience. Guests can unwind at the infinity pool, rejuvenate at the Iyasya Spa, or practice yoga in the open-air pavilion. The fitness centre and steam room offer modern options, while jogging tracks and nature trails encourage movement in the outdoors. Families with children benefit from their play area, towel origami workshops, plantation walks, and interactive activities such as fish and duck feeding.



“The experience was seamless and soulful—Rosetta knows how to make you feel truly refreshed.” —Shreya


Dining & Culinary Offerings: Where Multi-Cuisine Means a Blend of Global Flavors

Teatro, the resort’s all-day dining restaurant, serves a multi-cuisine menu that spans Indian, Asian, Italian, and French fare. Guests can choose between buffet spreads and à la carte options, with seating that ranges from traditional to romantic. Freshly brewed coffee, baked breads, and locally sourced ingredients elevate the dining experience.



“The food was exceptional—every meal felt like it was made just for us. Don’t miss the pepper-crusted paneer.” —Deepak


Events & Celebrations: A Choice of Flexible Spaces and Formats

Rosetta Sakleshpur is a sought-after venue for weddings, corporate retreats, and milestone celebrations. The Grand Ballroom and Banquet Lawns offer flexible spaces supported by professional event teams. The natural setting adds intimacy and charm, making it ideal for destination weddings or offsite meetings that prioritize connection and creativity.

“Our time at Rosetta felt like a dream—invigorating, warm, and deeply personal. Every detail was thoughtfully curated.” —Shreya
