Pros:

Breakfast was good with kerala special and other generic items. We had dinner one night and it was delicious.

Cons:

I was expecting the room to have a view as shown in the marketing pictures. The one we got has blocked view.

Pros:

We had a great time at the resort. More than enjoying Thekkady site seeing, we wanted to spend more time in the resort itself. Very supportive staff, thanks to sachin for accommodating additional requests. I highly recommend this place for stay at Thekkady.

⭐ Very Poor Experience – Irresponsible Management and Poor Service

Extremely disappointing experience. The management was not even ready to provide a complimentary welcome drink, tea, or coffee. The lunch provided was very basic and below expectations.

The breakfast experience was even worse. At 9:30 AM, basic items like idly, puri, and eggs were not available for everyone, and dosa was the only option left. This clearly reflects poor planning and irresponsible management.

On top of that, the rooms were not clean, which made the overall stay even more disappointing. Basic hospitality, cleanliness, and food arrangements are the minimum expectations from any hotel, but this property failed to meet even these standards.

I would not recommend this place to anyone. The management seriously needs to improve its cleanliness, food quality, guest service, and overall hospitality. Very poor value for money.

Comfortable stay. Good property.
Pros:

The property is beautiful, - spread over a large area with lovely wood cottages. The atmosphere is serene, with plenty of greenery around. The breakfast spread was good.

Cons:

Room maintenance needs to be looked into. All rooms were not ready for checking in.
Another thing that needs to change is how drinking water is supplied. They provide packaged bottled water, which generates a huge amount of plastic waste.
