This resort is situated in a dead end, juz at the entry of wild life sanctuary. I was wondering how the resort is gonna be coz sterling is in process of renovating their resorts, I was not sure if this property was renovated but when I entered in it was a surprise to see a reception with wooden cladding amidst...

Ours was a family trip consisting of us three brothers and our spouses. Honestly, there was some trepidation before the trip as the reviews we read in this site was not very encouraging. We still decided for it in view of the location. We covered the road trip in four hours from Ernakulam. The greenery on the way was amazing.... More

Sterling Woods n Spice – Thekkady is a nice property. I visited during August 2012 with family for 4 nights. We traveled from Sterling Munnar.. Wood all over - ceiling, flooring, staircase, etc. We went for 2 cottages.. Room sizes - too small – not very comfortable but its ok cause the way Sterling Team extended their friendly attitude to...

Dark rooms and a dreary dining room, all lacking air conditioning, is items talking against this hotel. We got a Tower room which was spacious, nice and with a commanding view. But the parking lot below was noisy. No one had ever cleaned the floor under the bed :-( . The monkeys were fun. Location was very off from everything.

The location is excellent. It share boundaries with Periyar Tiger reserve. I am appalled by poor architecture and electrical planning. Plumbing and sanitation is an issue too. No doubt company has spend a lot in the property but no one has noticed the fact that they have beds spread out away from ceiling fan in all the rooms. No science... More

Positives: Beautifully structured and landscaped Nice swimming pool - but max 4 feet deep only Wooden paneled rooms remain cool Friendly staff - helped with travel and activities Negatives: Food not great - lack of variety and availability of items in the menu Service is slow and sometimes they dont understand what we ask

We stayed here for 1 day. the Staff was good and we had cud see an cultutal performance also here. The location of the pool is nice and one can sit here and relax . But the biggest problem is the room which is small and cramped up. no space to move around. The food is decent nothing extraordinary.

This is a lovely quiet spot on a hill, near a school at a dead-end road above Kumily, and close to Thekkady. The staff is WONDERFUL, from the manager, to the bellhops, to the fellows at reception. Everyone will try to make your stay as comfy as possible. I had a small mix-up with my order from room service, but... More

It is situated right next to the wild life sanctuary and one can see the forest from ones room window. Rooms we stayed in were just above the restaurant and were totally made in wood - including the floor, walls and the ceiling.there was a spacious lobby outside the rooms. The restaurant provides good buffets at unbelievably cheap packages. The... More
