We loved everything and especially the staff who were all excellent and kind and went above and beyond to make our stay a dream. One of our favourite stay of all time for sure. - the proprety is very well maintained, with gardeners making a fantastic job. The garden is just beautiful. - the rooms are amazing, perfectly cleaned, beds so relaxing, shower great, view beautiful. Loved the "mini bar" with new pastries everyday, free tea and coffee. Every day the housekeeping staff makes your room fresh. The amenities Forrest essential products smell so nice. - delicious breakfast,evertime and anytime!! As we don't like to eat in the morning, this was just pure bliss for us. The offer is just delicious. It was some of the best breakfast in our life. - delicious local recipies. We loved that the hotel is so tuned with the region and that every postcards adapts the menu to where it is located. We love food and this is also a reason why we are in India. Therefore we were more than glad to see the food offer and no impersonal international Hotel food that makes you feel you could be in Dubai, Paris or Rio. Also the cook Aryan was so kind and offered to cook a receipe of our choice. We chose a kashmiri receipe we try to do at home "dum aloo" and he did it so well, we were super happy. In retrospect, I wish we would have asked his personal signature dish because he was super talented. - I took a massage and Muskan is really a talented masseuse as well. It was amazing. - Once again thank you to the staff who made our stay so nice. We could not ask the name of everyone because it would have been a bit weird maybe, but thanks to Mulong who took care of us at the pool and restaurant, Ravi and Krutik at the restaurant - and all the other waiters we did not ask names of, all kind and smiling, and the excellent reception staff who welcomed us like royals.

We liked everything. just a suggestion, as we love Indian music and it is also varied like the food, would be so amazing if the playlists in the restaurant were also tuned to each region with local songs. Also as European we like to eat outside because we have the whole winter to get cold, and maybe the sitting area outside is a bit less nice than the rest of the hotel. However, we enjoyed each of our meal with view on the garden. Daily specials propositions from the chefs would also be nice to let them show us their creativity and discover other dishes. But this is again just a suggestion because the menu is amazing as it is and as for now, you can ask anything you wish to eat, which is also kind of amazing.

If heaven exists, I hope it's a lot like The Postcard Hideaway. I woke up every day to monkeys playing in the trees, butterflies floating by, and bird song filling the air. Every member of the staff is unbelievably kind and gracious, the food is utterly divine, and the attention to detail and the little surprises you'll discover along the way will fill your heart. Be sure to explore the nature that surrounds you with a tour (we loved the waterfall) and to visit the spa for a relaxing afternoon. The Postcard Hideaway is truly a place filled with magic and I cannot wait to return.

The hotel is truly a hidden gem. Nestled within a lush sanctuary ( kind of a blend of forest and jungle) - it offers the perfect escape to reconnect with nature and rejuvenate. The air itself is refreshing and smells divine. You can also hear the singing of the birds which is very soothing. From our terrace, we were able to see adorable little monkeys playing in the trees—a truly enchanting experience! The bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring restful sleep, and the bathroom amenities were of the highest quality, adding a touch of luxury to our stay. A special thanks to the wonderful hotel manager, Saurabh, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. His attention to detail and genuine care for our comfort were remarkable! He even helped us organise a visit to a local spice farm, which we really enjoyed.

Not a negative, Just a friendly reminder to keep in mind that the property is nestled in the forest, which means you may encounter small lizards and insects. To ensure comfort, it's best to keep doors shut, especially in the evenings when it gets dark. Additionally, the pool area is beautifully surrounded by trees, offering a serene and shaded ambiance. However, after 5 PM, direct sunlight is limited as the sun dips behind the trees—something to consider if you're planning to sunbathe in the late afternoon.

A Wonderful Stay at Postcard Hideaway, Netravali Our recent stay at the Postcard Hideaway, Netravali, was nothing short of exceptional. The personalized touch, especially with the food, made our experience truly memorable. We requested no sugar with our hot chocolate during the first order, and every subsequent order came perfectly as per our preference—such thoughtful attention to detail. The thoughtful selection of savouries in the room was another delightful touch. We enjoyed the makhana, cookies, and murmura, all of which were a perfect accompaniment to our relaxing moments. These little treats truly added to the comfort of our stay and made us feel pampered. The spa was another highlight, with Mukta delivering an absolutely fantastic massage, leaving us completely relaxed. Shubham was always available and eager to assist us with anything we needed, and both the lady waiter and the other gentleman were polite and kind, especially with my child, making us feel very well taken care of. Saurabh’s warm and welcoming attitude made us feel at home from the moment we arrived, adding to the overall sense of comfort. We highly recommend this tranquil escape for anyone looking for a relaxing and personalized experience.

Absolutely everything and everybody. We'd booked 2 nights first and as soon as we reached the lobby me and my husband decided to book two more nights. The whole territory of the resort is jungle, pure jungle with monkeys, birds, butterflies, frogs and other incredible insects we'd seen before only on Discovery Channel!! We were lucky to stay in two different rooms which were incredibly stunning. You can literally smell the wood the villa is made of. And once you are on the balcony you are surrounded with the freshest air and stunning view. The pool, restaurant, SPA and reception stuff are VIP level!! The best escape from the city life, far away from noise and other annoying "amenities", very sustainable and holistic. Extremely recommending!!!

I loved everything!!

The location is stunning, the staff were welcoming and friendly, the forest and nature was amazing, with langur monkeys, a huge variety of birds, lizards and butterflies all around our room each day. Some beautiful places to explore (on foot, bike or car) all around. They have a good menu but also cook anything you like off the menu as well (providing they have the ingredients). Nice pool. Lovely Yoga sala. Great place to unwind and reconnect.

Towards the end of our stay the service lagged a little in our room, and the menu was expensive. Transport to and from the hotel is limited and expensive.

We loved the rooms and the grounds. There are separate little houses that you reach by small electric vehicles. It was quiet except for monkeys and birds. Rooms were beautifully and tastefully laid out and decorated. Amenities- soap coffee etc were world class. We did a couples massage and facial that was out of this world. I am sad I can’t find the name of the two women who did it for us to report- management if you see this please respond and add to this review. The food was well prepared and delicious. We made a few food requests and they were added to the menu next day. The service was ubiquitous yet unobtrusive. Tips are included in the price which I like as it removes another potential stressor. I also enjoyed the swim up bar at the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Nothing

We had an incredible three night stay at the Postcard Hideaway resort. The staff were extremely accommodating, with special mentions to Rishi who was contactable via Whatsapp for our every need. We also booked a couples massage and facial with Rose and Muscan, who were incredible. We were so relaxed I fell asleep it was that good!! We loved the option to have breakfast at any time and ability to amend our checkout time. They went the extra mile for our anniversary with decorations and cake also. And the views are unbeatable!!

Prices marked up for excursions was quite high and more sunbed around the pool would be recommended.

Spectacular! I rarely write reviews but this one is soooo worth it & I want everyone to give it a try but still No words can describe this hidden gem. It’s exceeded our expectations, EVERYTHING was ABOVE & BEYOND Magical. Honestly from the warm amazing welcome form minute we walked in until the last minute where they put our luggage in the car and offered to take our picture in the lovely spot. Our luxury room was perfectly designed & it felt like a tree house, the decor, the amenities, the view is breathtaking & the bed is soooooo comfy. It also feel very private like the rooms aren’t very close to each others, so ur music can be as loud as you want. I was so scared to book in such a place because of mosquitoes and surprisingly I didn’t even get bitten once, which shows how they truly take care of it for you. Here I want to specially & deeply THANK everyone works in the hotel from housekeeping to restaurants! Everyone is super nice & seems genuine not fake smiles etc like other hotels. The food was super yummy & authentic. Well prepared and carefully chosen. The scents and aroma they added in the washrooms is so fresh. Now the Spa is a wholesome, they were experts it’s rare that I don’t get body ache a day after the massage. Which means they did wonderful job. I could go on & on. We loved our stay & definitely coming back even though isn’t on my list to visit again but this hotel definitely is. Thank you for this memorable stay.

This off-beat, non-beach property nestled amidst forests is a treat to the eye. The drive from airport to the property is so beautiful & calming. I would reccomend you do get a morning/afternoon flight so you can enjoy it all. Once you reach Postcard, you are greeted with a positive welcome from the team & you leave for your cottage. The cottage is so well designed, clean & the postcard team makes sure you enjoy it in peace. The refreshments in the room, bathrobes, bath & haircare brands - all are well selected & presented. The food is great, the concept of the resort is ‘forget time’ - there are no breakfast hours, no check-ins & outs & that makes it so relaxing. A no-deadline vacation! I loved the fact that Postcard displayed trust in their guests & showed immense care & gratitude through all their gestures- one small example is free gifts everyday in the room. Simranjeet, Aditya , the guard at entrance, late night staff at reception- all display top-notch professionalism & they seem to be happy in their jobs. Kudos to their service! Overall, if you are not a tourist who wants to unwind, relax , is not impatiently looking for ‘what next’ everyday & wants to enjoy clean , simple food - this place is for you.

Nothing that we didn’t like. Everything was amazing The fact that Postcard Natravelli can market themselves better because the hospitality team there is doing an amazing job. Additionally, the property has great opportunities ti add more - outdoor seating (small tables, chairs, benches), organize or guide guests on short hikes around the property - nothing touristy as such but ways to enable guests to walk around the resort. Evening dinners can be organized in forests, live singing or goan cooking etc etc. all these are suggestions to make the property thrive a bit more.
