Worth a stay!
Pros:

Great location. Rainforest walk was informative and Gokul did a fantastic job. Room was very specious and good facilities. Food was tasty, though we liked vegetarian options more than the non-vegetarian ones. Lots of walking space within the property and a well taught of view spots to sit and admire nature. Enjoyed the quirky one liner signboards across the property.

Cons:

Room had loads of switches for everything without any indication. Labelling of at least the important switches such as Geyser, fridge, tv, AC could have saved our time and repeated calling to the reception for assistance. Dessert varieties could be reduced with emphasis on taste. Breads/ cakes/ donuts could be avoided with that's not the speciality. Less is more if quality is great.

Pros:

We had a wonderful experience at Wildplanet Jungle, Devala. The staff were very friendly, and the ambience was truly amazing. The team was always responsive and helpful with our queries, which made our stay even more comfortable.

This was my second visit, and once again, we felt completely relaxed and safe throughout our stay. A special thanks to the kitchen staff, who were incredibly supportive and went the extra mile by arranging a surprise cake for my spouse at very short notice. Considering the remote location, this was truly impressive and meant a lot to us.

Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the entire Wildplanet team. A special mention to Mr. Ashok Fernandez, our point of contact, who took excellent care of us. His kindness and personal touch made a big difference, and at times, he even became our cameraman, capturing many beautiful memories for us. Thank you, sir, for everything!

Thanks,

Exzellentes Hotel inmitten des Jungels der Nationalparks.
Pros:

Ein außergewöhnlicher Ort. Mitten im Nationalpark. Das Hotel hat einen Charakter wie eine Lodge. Die Anfahrt ist etwas beschwerlich aber es lohnt sich absolut. Ich war während der Regenzeit da und ich saß praktisch durchgehend in einer Wolke und es regnete viel, aber die Umgebung und die Natur dennoch atemberaubend schön. Das Hotel ist schön gestaltet und der Service funktioniert reibungslos. Nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit muss man sich mit Jeeps überall hinbringen lassen wegen der Gefahr durch wilde Tiere. Essen und einige Tagesaktivitäten sind inkludiert.

Cons:

Während des Abendessens lief laute Elektromusik. Das ist kulturell nicht untypisch in Indien und stört wahrscheinlich eher nur den Europäer, denn mir hätte es genügt während des Essens nur dem Regen auf dem Dach der Lodge zuzuhören.

Pros:

The food was great

Cons:

The drive to the resort. Very poor approach road - especially the last 4 KMS. The room had a balcony but was not able to open it or to sit there due to the presence of monkeys.
