Pros:

The staff in the property were excellent and was always attentive very friendly. Beautiful view, especially on the 360° terrace. The pool or the view from the pool Infiniti pool was amazing. We appreciated the staff member who took our pictures at the 360 which turned out really great. Hehehehe!(inside joke)!

Cons:

I wish there was a bit more lighting, specially around nighttime, and around the steps that you’re going through to the room. The gym is not off four star quality. It only had two old treadmill and weights only up to 10 KG. The room key kept getting demagnetized, but they said they’re working on upgrading the key card system.

The Thekkady Adventure
Pros:

The hotel is located in a vast piece of land on a hill top with assets spread across downhill areas giving it a unique setting and a sense of adventure. The facilities can be accessed via frequently available golf-carts. The rooms are spacious with wide balconies and have all the amenities. The staff at reception, restaurants and housekeeping are very polite and helpful. Overall , we liked our stay at Poetree Thekkady very much.

Cons:

The food quality and items at both dinner and breakfast were not up to the mark and could be improved upon.
Also, the drive up to the hotel entrance is via steep uphill roads which can be navigated only by an experienced car driver. Could be risky at times .

Very comfortable. Nice food. Excellent staff who helped us with outings.
Pros:

Beautiful setting in the hills above Thekkady. Food was good with a large buffet selection plus a live cooking station. The hotel laid on extras like cookery demos, group games and evening walks to the local high point to watch the sun set. Staff were extremely helpful in booking outings. They also responded immediately when a light fixture broke. Overall a very pleasant 2 night stay
