Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Wonderful. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Food was excellent. Its an isolated, lodge style place with full board included and they offer plenty of activities including wildlife safaris in nearby Bandipur park and a morning nature walk.

The experience at this property was beautiful The staff were very courteous and very helpful making the experience unforgettable. The directions to this property during the night was not very clear on google maps or iPhone maps. They have transportation from Mysore to the resort. I would highly recommend their transportation. ideally taking Vande Barat train from Chennai or Bangalore to Mysore. They have a 3 bdrm bed and breakfast villa in Mysore. With transportation to the property. I will be making another visit in the near future.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly, property was clean, and most importantly food served was delicious and great variety. I took off one star because hot water was available but more like Luke warm, and after running water for 45 mins. One thing to note, not related to property- Bandipur safari is only available by car and only two times a day. First one starts at 630 in the morning. There is a huge price difference when doing safari from Bandipur officials vs when arranged by resort, but experience is same.
