लोग इसे क्यों पसंद करते हैं
- Incredible hospitality from a staff that genuinely cares
- Direct access to the Kabini River and Kuruva Island rafting
- Spacious cottages with private plunge pools that actually feel private
त्वरित सारांश: A peaceful jungle retreat that nails the 'nature vibe' but struggles with city-grade internet and hot water consistency.
@munch_freak द्वारा समीक्षित: I spent the weekend at this hidden gem in Wayanad and it was exactly the reset I needed. My room had a private jacuzzi right on the balcony, and the outdoor cave shower felt like a jungle adventure. Plus, the bunnies are adorable! Perfect spot to just disconnect.

अंदरूनी सुझाव
- ✨
Ask the staff to arrange a 'candlelight dinner' on your balcony—they go all out with flowers.
- ✨
Visit Ammikkara View Point (just 250m away) for a stunning, uncrowded sunset.
- ✨
Request the 'Kerala traditional lunch' specifically—it's often better than the buffet spread.
जाने से पहले 5 बातें जानें
💡The 'games room' is a bit sad—broken carrom boards and worn-out equipment.
💡You might get a visit from monkeys on your balcony; keep doors locked.
💡The 'plunge pool' is cold water only, which is shocking in December but great in April.
💡Hot water is solar/limited in some blocks, so shower early or late afternoon.
💡The approach road is narrow and winds through the forest—arrive before dark.
