We had a lovely experience at Gokulam Grand. We especially enjoyed the spa and the boat ride, which made our stay even more memorable. A wonderful place for a relaxing getaway—we would happily visit again

Well maintained grounds, beautiful gardens and paths and the construction is fashioned as traditional Kerala home villas. This is a must stay property. Food was good and they have lots of activities for the families. The staff is pleasant but not uniformly friendly and not everyone is attentive as other places. I feel they could work on this piece. It seemed some were not happy working at the property and were just getting by. All that being said, I would return to this resort and wish I could...

1) Great location - away from city center
2) Only 6 rooms and the staff gave personalized service and attention
3) Hotel restaurant's food was excellent - again they were able to customize the food - our son is allergic to tree nuts and they took care of that very well
4) If you are looking for constant and high speed connectivity to internet, that could be problem

Our stay at Shalimar Spice Garden was the highlight of our time in South India--we only wish we had booked more than just two nights! The setting is idyllic, the staff is lovely, the food is delicious, and overall it is an island of beauty and serenity. We cannot recommend it highly enough!

An extremely long drive ended at the hotel's cobbled stone driveway at midnight, continuously guided politely by Jobin who also welcomed us with a happy smile.More than us,the sigh of relief was on his face.
A beautiful wooden bridge led us to our space giving a feeling of an upscale, romantic atmosphere with beautiful white walls, identically vaulted ceilings and tastefully crafted Victorian interiors with French doors, windows that spilled to a wraparound deck. The result.. luminous and airy...

We had a great time on this trip. The food was excellent. The crew was very attentive and we had a lot of fun dancing and singing. I highly recommend using Upperdeck Houseboats for your next trip.

Our stay at Greenwoods was an absolute pleasure! From the beautiful property grounds, to the spacious rooms, to the great food, and most importantly the amazing staff, we loved every bit of it! Special mentions to the activities coordinator Abin and the outdoor sports coordinator Remo for making it even more special for my son and our family! Would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Thekkady area!

I want to qualify what a couple other reviews said about this hotel. 1) they do now serve alcohol, so don't worry about that, and they would go into town and get anything you need for you 2) It's not entirely in the middle of no where - but if you want to do a lot of sight seeing stay in Trivandrum, this is a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the view. My husband and I stayed here as stop on a three week trip in Southern India and we absolutely loved it. After a week of the hustle and bustle of...

Upgraded to a lovely, stylish room with a gorgeous view of the lake. I couldn't have been more comfortable. Staff was kind, friendly but not intrusive. Very comfortable as a female travelling alone.
