Relaxed, friendly place to stay!
Pros:

The staff were fabulous. We had meals prepared especially for us so we could experience the local Keralan cuisine. Even during a thunderstorm the staff we on hand almost immediately when the power went out. There were bicycles to use and the pool was refreshing. Highly recommended!

Cons:

Nothing!!

Lovely stay in a very special location
Pros:

A lovely stay in a beautiful countryside location. The rooms are large with lovely balconies. The pool was nice and clean. The staff spend a long time sweeping the leaves every day to make sure the property is nice. The manager Ritto worked very hard to make sure we enjoyed our stay, and showed us the local villages and took us walking to the river and organised a driving tour to the temple. A really special place. We recommend lunch in the Coffee Hut. Photos below.

Great comfortable resort
Pros:

Very nice resort among the villages. Room was specious, clean and very comfortable, with nice balcony. The staff was great, especially Ritto who is simply the ultimate host! He took me on a walking tour around the hotel, booked me a safari that was already fully booked online and even took me to visit his family. This resort is highly recommended!

Our favourite place in India
Pros:

We absolutely loved it here - the rooms are identical to those shown in the photos, spacious & clean. The local area is teeming with wildlife and nature - there were chipmunks and birds in the trees surrounding our balcony that we loved watching, and we saw a hummingbird hovering next to our table at breakfast one morning. Frogs, geckos and lizards could be seen most days and I've never seen so many dragonflys! The local dogs are well cared for and very affectionate, the local people love and respect nature very much. The food in the hotel is the best we have eaten in India (my partner has been 8 times to many parts of the country!) The variety and quality was amazing, fresh warm idlis, chapati, paratha, puris and upma were served with a variety of beautiful Keralan curries each morning and evening. The resort itself is set in a rural community surrounded by a beautiful forest filled with monkeys, elephants, bison, deer, even tigers, leopards and panthers. On journeys through the forest we saw elephants, monkeys, bison and deer standing on the side of the road very often. Jemshi, a local taxi driver who we travelled with most of the time was amazing at spotting the wildlife and would stop so we could get photos and videos. Ritto the hotel manager provided the best hospitality to us, on our first day he took us on a tour of the local area, showed us the traditional mud houses of the local tribal people and the Kabani river. We wanted to try authentic Keralan food so Ritto took us for lunch in a local village next to the river where we shared a very large fish cooked traditionally, freshly caught from the river. We also had a traditional Thali served on a banana leaf thanks to Ritto which we loved. Ritto and Jemshi also helped us arrange many activities such as a safari and got up as early as 4am to take us there, waiting for us to finish before driving us back.

Cons:

That we didn't stay longer!

Relaxing Stay Surrounded by Nature
Pros:

We had an amazing stay at Kuruva Isles surrounded by lush green forest. It’s safe and the staff are very helpful. The jungle jeep safari was a thrilling experience and the food was delicious. We traveled from Bangalore and the scenic forest route was beautiful. The Kabani River is just a short walk away and we enjoyed peaceful morning walks along its banks. Don’t miss out the tree top view! Highly recommend this place for a perfect nature getaway!

Cons:

Everything went smoothly with no downsides faced for us actually.
