Avoid unless they improvise
Pros:

Good climate and many attractions nearby

Cons:

The site manager constantly calling and reminding breakfast, lunch and dinner timings.
The swing which is kept nearby the river, is not fastened to the ground. My family would have had an accident. The safety for a family with kids is really a concern.
For the amount they charged for food, the options given are really pathetic. It is simply a rip off. No juice, no soups etc.
The owner needs to invest in the approach rod which is fully damaged and car drivers asking us why we have booked this place?

A perfect location and a beautiful setting to have a peaceful, relaxing time in Coorg.
Pros:

We really love our stay at firefly by the river. From our first contact with the property manager Saveen who was super kind and helpful and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was amazing. The property itself is beautiful, peaceful and quiet. A pleasure to walk around in. We also had the chance to explore the river in a traditional boat, again, organised by Saveen. The room was also really nice, very comfortable, clean and spacious. We loved the outdoor seating area. Very quiet at night. Lastly, the breakfast and dinners that we had there were absolutely amazing, especially the pork. A big thank you to the chef there. All in all, my wife and I cannot recommend it enough.

Cons:

We honestly cannot think of anything that we didn't like or would want improved.

An absolutely incredible place in the heart of nature — perfect to relax and unwind!
Pros:

I had an unbelievable stay here — a true escape into nature. Tucked away from the noise, it’s the kind of place where you instantly slow down: birds at sunrise, fresh air all day, and nights so quiet you can hear the wind in the trees. I came with friends, and every one of us left feeling lighter and genuinely refreshed.

The property is perfect for relaxing and unwinding. Rooms are clean and comfortable, the common spaces invite long conversations, and there are plenty of quiet corners to read, meditate, or just stare at the hills. The staff are warm, thoughtful, and quick to help without ever intruding — exactly the balance you hope for at a nature retreat.

What I loved most was the sense of calm: unhurried mornings with great chai, long walks, and stargazing after dark. No forced activities, no crowds — just space to breathe. I live in Bangalore now, and this will be my go-to getaway whenever I need to reset. It truly feels like a sacred place, and I’m already planning my return.

Highlights:

Serene, natural setting — ideal for real downtime

Spotless rooms and inviting common areas

Kind, positive staff who genuinely care

Peaceful nights and beautiful sunrises

An easy weekend escape from Bangalore

Great leisure getaway from the hustle!
Pros:

Great location, quiet and disconnected from the chaos of city life, but not too far from a town and necessities if required. The staff was courteous, the food was tasty and the surroundings were perfect for a peaceful getaway. There's a river flowing near the property which was a nice place to spend a peaceful morning.

Cons:

We went as a family, paid the same amount for 2 rooms, but one was significantly smaller than the other. The smaller room was a little cramped for space and probably does not do justice to what the property represents - there should be consistency in allocating rooms based on pricing. The beds were quite springy and not too comfortable for the back. If these things are taken care of, it would be a 10/10 property.

Pros:

Great location for those wanting to be close to nature. The river flows right behind the property. Lots of greenery. Staff was very humble and the room was quite clean. Loved the verandah outside the room where we can sit and watch the lush green surroundings. Especially worth mentioning ate the two dogs Leo and Ashi who made our trip memorable.

Cons:

The approach road is muddy and got extremely damp and felt like an offroad due to the rains. The entrance was hard to locate and parking and approach road to the river are all muddy and hard to walk through because they haven't been built. No TVs in the rooms, which is weird given they charge so much per night. Also, food options were extremely limited. Infact, there were no options, just 1 or 2 things served during breakfast and dinner that we had to eat. Since pathways aren't built to the river, it was very difficult to get to it, especially because the whole area was damp after the rains.
