Staying at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The extremely spacious rooms with lots of natural light pouring in were impressive, but dealing with a dysfunctional WC and a leaking roof was a huge letdown. Despite the serene location perfect for a family outing, waking up to a fully flooded room the next day left us utterly disappointed.

The resort offers a stunning view of greenery amid 320 acres of forest, with warm and welcoming service, but lacks drinking water provision. The dining experience includes South Indian dishes and pancakes but suffers from delays. The stay is pricey, and guests are delighted by the friendly service and surrounding natural beauty.

The room was clean and comfortable, but the rate was exorbitant and required calling the hotel engineer to shut off.
