I had an incredible stay at this fantastic resort nestled in a coffee, tea, and black pepper plantation. The ambiance was serene and perfect for relaxation, but the dining experience could use a bit more variety. The staff, especially Anand, was exceptionally welcoming and knowledgeable. While the rooms were lovely, I felt they could use some improvement in terms of luxury. Overall, it’s a great value for a peaceful getaway close to nature.

This boutique plantation homestay offers a delightful escape with its stunning suites and attentive service. My family loved the luxury of the colonial McKenzie suite and the charming tree house. The food was extraordinary, prepared with fresh ingredients from the plantation. However, there were a few hiccups with the Wi-Fi and pool water during my stay, which slightly impacted the experience.

Staying at the Hornbill Tree House was a delightful experience, offering a blend of high-quality accommodations and outstanding food. The tree house allowed us to get up close to nature, with playful macaques adding a unique touch to our stay. While the food was consistently excellent, it's worth noting that the monkeys were keen on sharing our snacks. Overall, it's a remarkable retreat that feels like a hidden gem in Wayanad.

Our stay at the resort was a wonderful experience, with the Mackenzie Suite offering a fantastic colonial charm and spaciousness. The staff's personal attention, particularly from the manager, ensured we felt taken care of. However, there were a few hiccups, such as the intermittent Wi-Fi and the disappointment of the Christmas menu not aligning with what we expected. The pool could use some maintenance as it felt uninviting. Overall, a great stay, but some improvements would elevate it further.

I had an amazing stay at this beautiful resort! The staff were genuinely warm and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The property was incredibly neat amidst lush greenery, and the heated pool was such a delight. Although the food selection was limited, each dish I tried was flavorful, though I wish the portion sizes were a bit larger. Also, it's worth noting that there was no liquor available on site, so I recommend bringing your favorites. Overall, it was a relaxed and memorable experience with just a few minor hiccups.
