A visit to this property is a must try for those who love jungle and wildlife. The service quality is top notch, far better than what premium chains can offer (CGH itself is such a renowned one!). The staff are exceptionally helpful and go that extra mile to make you feel at home. We were back from a European trip, and all the euphoria of that holiday is now a matter of the past after this incredibly good break at WW. My 9-year old daughter participated in the Creek Walk and the Little Chef initiatives organised by the resort, and has learnt so much about wildlife in the past few days than in the last several years. The rooms were so well appointed with large windows on two sides to give you a panoramic view of the jungle. Best of all, the air was so crisp that my own allergies took a sabbatical. For the money you pay, this resort is an absolute gem! We are totally relaxed and hope to visit this resort again in the future.

There was absolutely nothing to dislike.

Nature walks and activities run by the hotel were excellent. Food was good and the pool was lovely! The setting is very peaceful, you really feel like you’re up in the hills. All in all we had a fantastic stay!

Im nit picking a bit, but service was a little inconsistent with some staff members going out of their way to help, whereas we struggled to get clear information out of others. We would also have appreciated a bit more help/ recommendations when looking to organise activities outside the hotel - the focus was very strongly on guests doing hotel run activities so we had to arrange outside things ourselves.

After climbing a most impressive pass comprising of no more than 9 hairpin bends we popped out at the top to find the town of Wayanad. A jeep ride later traversing tea plantations we entered the heavily forested wonderland, which is the setting of the Wayanad Wild Resort. This CGH property is very well appointed, suitably understated to blend into the surroundings and clearly well managed by David Raju and his team. David is a leading naturalist in India having recently compiled two field guides on southern and central India with one on western India about to go to press. We saw things here that we had not seen elsewhere, particularly on the night tours, including 8 frog and 5 snake species! The rooms were very comfortable and the food was delicious. Our one night stay here, particularly the walks with Umesh, were memorable.

We loved the peacefulness and tranquility of the property. The property is secluded from the hustle bustle of the city. The staffs were extremely helpful. The night walk was very interesting. We recommend to do night walks every night so that you may be able to spot different species. The helpfulness of the staff with smiling face was indeed heart warming. They served us some special dishes that we wanted to try at no cost. This was such a warm gesture to recieve. It would be helpful if the restaurant timing are extended a bit as it may be too early for some guests. The space was very clean. We were extremely pleased to see the usage of non plastic products within the property. This stands true from comb to toothbrush, shampoo bottle and any small things that you may notice.

The property should have kept spa facility. I am sure guests would love it within forest. The property should also promote more local food than North Indian food. The road to property was very troublesome - but this is something that property can't do anything about and we understand it. May be they should keep a TV or something for guest to entert

The location is excellent in mids of the jungle. The room view was magnificent and I just enjoyed sitting on the patio and sipping a warm coffee. It's just the right place to unwind and forget all the worries. The staff is very courteous and always available to help. The naturalist who took us on Nature walks and trails were very knowledgeable and passionately loved what they did. The food is really good and we enjoyed every bit of it. They had a really good spread on the buffet. On every trail we went they provided us with leech socks, gumboots and umbrellas to keep us safe.

The staff were extremely warm and helpful. I travelled with my wife and two year old toddler. They were kind enough to cater to the food preferences of my wife ( serious allergy to wheat) and my toddler. Their naturalists were great and informative. The cabin was clean and well maintained. The location is one of a kind. We will definitely like to come back again or maybe explore the rest of the CGH properties.

It's not about not liking, maybe they could have a few more activities for toddlers for eg. like a baby pool ? A section for engaging the kids with a small play area with natural materials keeping with the ethos of the place

Extraordinary setting, this little patch of rainforest surrounded by tea and coffee plantations. Hardworking, conscientious staff dedicated to the natural history mission of the institution. Some of the staff, especially the Director, are highly knowledgeable naturalists. Well designed cabins, dining area, swimming pool, all overlooking the forest. Excellent food and daily wildlife walks around the property and nearby areas with staff.

I make a habit of exercising at hotels but they had no gym. That said, lots of hill walks available and a small swimming pool mostly did the job. It would be easy to offer the guests yoga mats for exercises in their rooms. Also I was disappointed not to be able to have a glass of wine or beer with dinner. No alcohol there.

The property is about 1.5 hours ahead of Wayanad town. We were blown away by the overall experience. The exceptional food, the greenery around, the comfort, and most of all, the staff. They were proactive in whatever they did, extremely polite and courteous group of folks. The naturalists on board took us for short treks, even in pouring rain, and it was the most fun activity ever. They pointed out rare species of birds, animals and plants, and told us interesting things throughout the trek. The property is extremely clean as well, and very mindful of the waste it generates. You will hardly find any plastic in use. We too made sure we brought back our plastic waste with us.

The food was excellent. The natural beauty was spectacular. But the best thing about this place was the service of the staff. Outstanding. Everyone was so friendly, helpful and just wonderful to talk to. The gift shop they had was very good. No marked up prices and supportive of local artisans. That's very nice.

The jeep drive up to the resort was quite bumpy, but this is probably not the resort's fault. The parking spot for cars could have been a covered one.

It is a beautiful property in the midst of the forest. There are lots of activities for adults and children. Food is excellent but the cherry on the top was the amazing staff. Every single member of the staff most polite and willing to help. I would definitely recommend this place especially for families with children.

No complaints! I had a fabulous stay
