What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Dining Experience

The buffet breakfast spread is very nice, with chefs ready to prepare eggs or dosas on demand. Freshness is key here as they only start preparing once you order. The South Indian dishes are especially good and there's no compromise on quality. I loved the blueberry cheesecake that was served as a complimentary treat during my stay.

Luxurious Bungalow Stay

Our bungalow was spacious and beautifully appointed, featuring a dressing area and a large bathroom. The stone-walled shower with a glass top was like nothing I've ever experienced before. The comfortable bed, air conditioning, and unique rustic decor created a perfect ambiance for relaxation.

Perfect Spa Retreat

The on-site spa offers an amazing selection of massages; I particularly enjoyed the shoulder and head massage with hot stones. It was the ideal way to unwind after a day of exploring the nature around the hotel. The prices were surprisingly reasonable for such a high-quality service.

Fun Activities Available

I loved the free bike hire service—it gave me the chance to explore the area at my own pace. The hotel also had options for badminton and cricket, which I took advantage of, making my stay not just relaxing but also active and enjoyable.

My experience at the resort was largely underwhelming due to subpar service, despite the decent room accommodations. The food quality was disappointing, leading to health issues for two members of our group. While the property itself is good-looking, it didn't live up to the promises made on the website and the high price tag. Overall, I would recommend exploring other options, as this resort felt overpriced for the quality of service received.
