The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, even at busy breakfast times. The breakfasts were really delicious consisting of freshly made pancakes, toast, banana and a choice of eggs with tea or coffee and juice. The rooms are very generous and spotlessly clean. Perfect proximity to the tiger reserve.

Very friendly, attentive and helpful staff - assisted with all the questions we had. Great location - close to shops and departure point for the Periyar Tiger Reserve buses. Coffee house on site served good food for breakfast (included in what we booked) and dinner (paid separately).

Best feature of this stay was the centralized location. If there is an intention to be involved with the available programs at the Periyar Tiger Reserve, this location is perfect since the 2 park entrances are between 5-10 minutes walk from here and the booking facility (ticket counter for the Periyar programs) was next door. Room was comfortable but basic. Hot water seems to be an issue here at times, and I had some issues with the wi-fi. Only breakfasts are available but there is no restaurant at the premises. A great restaurant option is next door to the property at the neighboring resort - top shelf restaurant there. Staff was very helpful and friendly. I thought the stay a bit pricey for the facility, but I believe its the location that makes this property a bit more expensive, and the centralized location makes this option quite attractive. However, contacts at the property sourced the best jeep tour guide from the property Ask for the guy with the bright red jeep. Best jeep tour of the different ones I had while in Kerala - very enjoyable! Also recommended would be the nearby performing arts theater and martial arts exhibition, which is only a 5-minute walk from the property. I enjoyed the Thekkady area very much with my stay here for the week and gained an excellent photo log from the venture. Also some good souvenir shops in the area.

Staff were very lovely and very helpful, always seemed to be smiling, Thankyou for a lovely stay. Breakfast was good, cold coffees delicious Very close to one entrance to the National Park and the bus park for boating and Nature walk, and close to resaturants

Centrally located with very easy access to nearby attractions. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staffs were very friendly and overall service was very good.
