We stayed at the property for 3 nights in Luxury Cottage. Room Type: Luxury Cottage Room Features: Bedroom plus living room plus balcony, Bathtub. Sofa cum bed Very spacious room, Luxurious bathroom Sofa cum bed - can easily accomodate 11-12 yrs child Travel: BLR - Mysore Expressway - Somvarpet.... Follow GPS --> Follow GPS until madikeri with marriott as destination, however choose the way via Bro's Kitchen. We followed GPS till end, and it took us to a narrow road for 1 Km. Although the road was good, it was too narrow for 2 cars to cross and we were stuck when a car came from opposite direction. Some biker group helped us in crossing each other. --> If you follow the way for Bro's Kitchen, route may be slightly longer but road is wide enough such that you can drive confidently. -->Check In: Smooth check in. Staff at reception explained us about the property and facilities available. We always reach the destination early such that we can roam around the property --> Property - One year old property in 37 Acres. Very well maintained, surrounded by lush green and coffee plantation. beautiful landscape and rooms are built on those landscape leading to nice views and privacy. --> Restaurants: They have 3 restaurants however one is for buffet in packages and other 2 are more of al.a. carte orders and experience. --> Food: Tasty and quality food. bit spicy so you need to request special food if you are not fond of spicy food. we all like spicy food so we enjoyed thoroughly. ***Recommended Package: Breakfast + dinner package --> Buffet - Breakfast and Dinner - excellent spread.

Before the trip, staff asked for any special occasion and I mentioned about son's birthday and requested cake in room on the day of arrival. Team decorated the room and placed a delicious chocolate cake in our room with kids name on it. It was a beautiful surprise for him. Same night on dinner - Team reserved a dinner table for us and once we had dinner, they brought another cake and we cut the cake with hotel team. our son was super happy and jumping with joy. Team there made him feel special. --> Trek and Kote Abe Falls - We went for small trek near Kotte Abe falls. Naturalist - Yesudas was amazing and super knowledgeable. On the way he explained us about all the plants. We tasted naturally grown raw cardamom, pepper etc. It was a unique experience for all of us. Enjoying the landscape and nature.
