Sandalo Castle Resorts

"So we stayed for one night, and it was ok, but the rooms just felt dingy, they had bars on the windows and were very small. The toilet seat was broken. The pool wasn't that clean. You had to order food and they brought it to your room or a very small dining room. I think this could be a beautiful little hotel, but they seem to have just concentrated on the pool area and nothing else. It's in a beautiful area surrounded by tea plantations and nature, and it would have been amazing to eat a nice dinner out looking over the views. Also, there seemed to be one girl doing everything (she was lovely though). We booked a mountain view room, but apparently got upgraded to a "pool view" I would rather have looked at the lovely surroundings than lots of plastic. Sorry sandalo."

Bamboo Banks Farm & Guest House

"We spent a day at Bamboo Banks Farm Guesthouse and simply loved every moment of it. Tucked deep into the forests of the Western Ghats at the edge of the Mudumalai Reserve, this place feels like a secret world where nature, comfort, and genuine hospitality come together in perfect harmony. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this isn’t just any guesthouse — it’s a labour of love. Spread over 42 acres of unspoiled forest, with cottages dotted quietly across the property, you feel immediately immersed in nature’s embrace. Wildlife sightings aren’t just promised — they’re part of life here. We saw herds of deer grazing peacefully around the property, and were told that many other animals regularly visit at night. There’s a magical stillness after dusk that makes you feel very close to the wild without ever feeling unsafe. The cottages are charming and comfortable, spread out so you almost have the forest to yourself. Each one feels thoughtfully placed, preserving privacy and serenity. The property’s owners — who have cared for this land and run the guesthouse for decades — clearly infuse every corner with their devotion and personal touch. And the food? Absolutely stupendous. We were blown away by the variety, quality, and heartiness of every meal — from local flavours to dishes that felt lovingly prepared just for us. It was one of the highlights of our stay. In short, Bamboo Banks Farm isn’t just a guesthouse — it’s a deeply restorative experience. Whether you’re seeking wildlife, slow mornings in nature, or meals that delight your senses, this place delivers on every front. 🌟 Highly recommended for nature lovers, wildlife enthusiasts, and anyone in need of a peaceful escape."
