The place is great. The host made us food on demand (breakfast, lunch or dinner) There is also a small kitchen where one can make their own food. It's a great place to live to unwind and relax. The weather is pleasant. The only grouch was that electricity was sometimes patchy. This only became a concern when we wanted to cook our own food

It was a short yet memorable stay. The cottages were beautiful, the place was remote from the madding crowd - a wonderful stay. Thanks for hosting us.

A beautiful place in the midst of silence. Transports you into another world .

Georges cottage at Bavali was a great choice of stay,it is a very private retreat overlooking the garden and then the huge coffee plantation,quiet impressive,one wants a peaceful and serene place to stay around this area then this is the right choice,very neat and airy installing AC can add more value to the place,not to forget Mr.Shankar and his wife the care taker of the place are very friendly people who gave us some amazing home cooked authentic food,they were very helpful in every way.Must say a very well maintained holiday home.Would love to visit again

It is a good place to stay . specially the scenery of the place is really awesome . manage you food and make sure you go in good weather

Can't have asked for anything more - the property is no less than any other international property. A very well equipped place - drawing room, bed room, bathroom and a well equipped kitchen with induction stove and vessels. Even someone who wants to stay long term could consider this place. The landscaping and the serene location are top notch. If you are looking for privacy or just some calm time to sit down and write some poems, this would be the right place. At first I didn't think that the actual property will be as per the pictures uploaded in the description, but I was blown away when I saw that it was even better in reality! It was fun to have tea sitting on the bench outside the house and while looking at the blissful scenery. Very friendly host and innkeeper. Proximity to Wayanad, Nagarhole and Kabini make this a very attractive place. Oh and yes, even during the severest of rains, there was no power outage...that's a big deal in a place like this. 5 stars to this property!

One of the best location if you want to have a weekend stay near nature...

The place is close to the Bavali river, the place is beautiful.. it's just as described. There is a lot of thought process behind building this and this is seen. Complete package, The food is local food don't expect dal makhani, paneer things :p It's clean, cleaner than my house in fact :D the kitchen has all utensils needed and induction for all ur needs Bathroom is clean and spacious there is a geaser of small capacity as needed . The outside benches are perfect for a candle light dinner feels :D For all looking for a place to relax head this way :)

Decent rooms. Great view of the mountains from the room. Ideal place to stay for a night if you are visiting Nagar Hole national park and Iruppu falls.

Don't go there

monish is a really friendly host, and the rooms are clean and nice! the house is located in a very scenic area, unfortunately it's directly next to the street, so during the day you can hear trucks, motorcycles, cars etc... the rooms have no wifi-connection! i went for a safari at nagarhole nationalpark, unfortunately i only saw deers and a peacock, no tigers - no elephants... but i guess i just had bad luck

The location is great and the rooms are amazingly spacious. The location and description is accurate. The hosts, are very warm and friendly and were very amiable and helpful. They have 4 amazing dogs who are a treat to be around!! The rooms could be a little less dusty and hygienic, and bed linens could be fresh. The location has limited options for restaurants. But the place is amazing value for money and is a good deal for anyone looking for an affordable getaway!

The host welcomed us promptly and advised that for food we would have to go outside as booking through Airbnb site would mean that they will not provide food within the home stay, this came as a surprise for us and it was quite annoying to travel outside every time. Listing matches the description in the photos and the location is indeed picturesque, neighborhood was quite serene and peaceful. The trip to Nagarahole national park was not a good experience as we wanted to visit the park first thing in the morning but at the last moment the host tells us that the safari was canceled that day, only to find out later from the forest officials that the safari wasn't canceled!

The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

The host canceled this reservation 2 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

First of all I loved the place Kutta, especially the climate and the mountains near the home stay. Aunty and uncle were so kind and suggested us the places to visit around. We stayed in the old homestay, which was a great experience, but there was one fault in one of the bathrooms, where flush was not working properly in the toilet, so we had to wait for the other toilet to get vacated, to go to loo. I'm still not getting over the experience of kutta, coorg. Such an awesome place. Food was a problem for us, as Kutta was a small town, but somehow we managed it. Finally, monish's homestay is awesome and I recommend it

The place is amazing for a large group and the I would recommend anyone with large group to book this place. The house has an authentic feel of the traditional Kerela house with a beautiful frontyard, stretching into a garden with a treehouse where you can chill with your friends. 1/ 1. The house has been maintained very well and cleanliness is 10/10. The house is of traditional style but gives you enough of what is needed. 2. The place is bit secluded so you need to plan your meals in advance. However finding the place is not an issue since you can simply navigate on (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Maps putting in the name of the villa. 3. Sightseeing - The house is close to a few places like Muneeswaran Kunnu and Kuruvadweep island. But other places are within a distance of 1.5hour of travel so you can plan accordingly. 4. Timekeeping was a big issue for us, we were promised things will be done/delivered by X PM but we had to wait for a long time a couple of time. Example, there was not water for us for almost 4 hours although we had requested the same way back. 5. Kitchen - The kitchen is working with basic utensil however be prepared to eat with your hands in the traditional style since there is no cutlery available at the place. Subin is a great host and Sachin is a great manager, we enjoyed our stay here except for a few hiccups.

Subin has a great place. It is peaceful, calm and beautiful. Sachin the property manager too was extremely helpful wrt to food arrangements, local sightseeing and routes. Loved the stay. Would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to spend a quality peaceful time.

Ideal place to have fun when you have a bigger crowd. Provision of a in house cook is important, especially when there are no restaurants and shops in the vicinity. It was quite hot in there and having an AC could have been ideal situation, though we could still manage with fans. Barbeque was good. Food had to be ordered from outside which was not of great quality. Overall a good experience.

The place was into the wild (and I mean it literally :D) You'd find nothing but greenery all around and no hint of concrete! It's an absolutely blissful place which takes you back in time with its architecture and at the same time astonishes you with its amenities. Subin was a wonderful host, accessible everytime and the manager at the property was also really helpful. Overall I'd love to go back to Subin's place again and would recommend it to everyone visiting Wayanad

Subin's tharavadu home is a perfect stay away from the hustle-bustle of the city. The place is serene and cleanly kept. If anyone wants to stay in a old-style Kerala home (called tharavadu) this is the place to be in. Sachin (looks after the guests) is a wonderful guy who makes sure we are well taken care of at all times. Located perfectly, camp fire is great. Would personally suggest folks to stay here. Thanks for everything Subin. ! Hope to see you again.

Awesome stay! really big farm house which can accommodate even more than 10. Although Subin and property manager Sachin were not available their friend was there to guide and help us out. Really worth the money that you pay. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. It is really calm and set amidst nature.

It was a good stay in Wayand..We loved it..Sachin guided us to reach destination safely and helped us with our needs.. Subin well managed to take care of his visitor's whole stay,from begginning to end even out of his presence there.. Sound system facility was the key point which I felt as we all enjoyed to the peak. House is a bit far from the city and visiting places.Totally Awesomeeee stay..hope will meet again.. from that all are good. Thanks to both Subin and Sachin:) Totally Awesomeeee stay..hope will meet again..

Good property!! Services can be improved!! Food was good!! Beautiful fields around the property and loved the evening walk!! Visitors should be fully equipped as the place has no stores in the close proximity.

The place is very similar to description and reviews. The only downside was refrigerator and induction was not working. Also it is far from Bangalore a good 7 hours drive (but worth it:)) The place is quite far from civilisation no restaurant, very few shops around. We had plans for site seeing but the lack of internet and inability to converse in Malyalam meant that we had to spend our 2 days around the home stay. It took us couple of hours to settle to the pace of the place. But after that it was divine, there is a strange melancholy in the air. Disconnected from the world no phone calls no e-mails. The place is self sufficient with good clean roads,electricity, a good spread of plantation where everything is fresh & readily available. A word about the care taker Mathai & his family. They are the real rockstars of this place. Exceptional hosts, awesome really awesome food, ever smiling. Somehow every individual we met here smiled to us and had no inhibitions in striking a conversation. Although most of the times we were talking in hand gestures but the innocence was addictive to say the least. Site Seeing- difficult(bikes are not available and internet is an issue) Food-Caretaker will make arrangements of all the major meals but it is advisable to carry sufficient snacks, water and ready to make stuff with you. Also make sure that you have well in advance told the host about your food arrangements specially on arrival. Liquor- Carry your own there is a wine shop very far with very basic options so it is better to carry your own. Police did not really check the vehicle we had an MH number plate. It is a home stay in true-sense where you can experience local food, culture & way of life. If you can take pleasure in small things then this is the place to be.

I stayed with couple of my friends at HIves place. It was a very calm and serene place to be and the stay was good. The caretaker even organised a bon fire for us on request.

It's a nice small cottage good for 3-4 people in the middle of nowhere. Prices are a bit high. With food, stay here comes up to a whopping (PHONE NUMBER HIDDEN) per person per day. It could be great if food prices are included in the current 2500 per day rate.

My friends and I found this listing very interesting because of the calm, serene and secluded nature of the property but our experience was a mixed bag. The location on the map doesn't seem to be exact and you might find it a little difficult to spot the place especially if you are checking in after dark. Add to that an iffy mobile network and you might start to worry a little. The night we checked in saw some rain and we had trouble with insects in the verandah and bedrooms. Though they seemed harmless some of my friends were pretty rattled. The place also lacked toilet paper or towels in the bathrooms. Communicating with the caretaker at the property can be a challenge if you don't speak Tamil/Malayalam. Overall, our experience wasn't bad but could've been better.

The owner was extremely helpful. The place is located a little far away from the city and he was constantly in touch with us helping us find the way. The caretakers are hospitable too. If u want to stay away from the city in peace and quiet, this is the place to be.

The place is exactly as shown in the pictures, pleasant and calm surroundings. What sets this property apart is the fantastic hospitality by Binoy and his lovely family. the welcome was really good. We really loved the place especially the backside of the house where we can hear the sounds of birds and small insects. Its a pleasant view with clean air and a relaxing place. The home was really clean and comfortable. There were no sounds of bikes or cars and no disturbance at all. We can assure you that you can be at peace when you are here. Just forget the city and enjoy this place. The food was really amazing each and everyday. We have no words to describe how good it was. You can definitely get a taste of the traditional Kerala Cuisine. The hospitality by Binoy family was truly brilliant.

It was lovely stay! The place is a bit far out so perfectly tranquil getaway from the crazy hustle bustle of town. Binoy and his family made us feel absolutely at home :) We had our own transport so commute to the nearest shop was quick and easy. The home is lovely and gets a lot of sun! Good for people who want to see Wayanad but want to come back to a place they can relax and enjoy as well. We had a great time!

Loved the place even though finding it was very difficult but once we reached the caretakers were very friedly and warm..surrounding is beautiful..loved the home cooked food..its an amazing place if you are planning for a short get away..:):)

Vansukh was a lovely place to stay. Peaceful, clean and surrounded by beautiful coffee plantations. We didn't meet the owners in person but communication with Nyla was easy. Sanjay the cook was exceptional in his skills in the kitchen - food and service was amazing. The caretakers made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again.

Very Nice place and very attentive staff ! Good communication with the owner. Perfect isolated location. Thanks a lot !

Vansukh is the answer to your prayers for a calm, de-stressed and peaceful holiday. Tucked away among a beautiful plantation, the 2 cottages are ideal for just about 2 families with young kids. The cottages are gorgeous and tastefully done, carefully taking care of all essentials including books if you are a reader like me! The walk-in closets help you organise all the luggage and keeps the mess away to enjoy a comfortable stay. Tatasky is extremely helpful if you have young toddlers who could enjoy some tv time of their fav programmes while you enjoy some banter time with your friends. Just 5.5 hrs away from Bangalore, Vansukh is top on our list for a quick weekend getaway. The north Indian cuisine food provided was comforting. Thanks to Nyla to the pleasant surprise of the kiddie inflatable pool provided. It made a world of a difference to our kids holiday at Vansukh. We will surely recommend this homestay to everyone.

Pluses: Location was excellent. The property was well maintained. If you are two couples you can have a very enjoyable experience. Staff was courteous. Food was homely. Kids loved the mini swimming pool. Star gazing was an opportunity of a life time. We had asked for khichdi for kids which was duly noted and prepared by the staff. We took a guided tour of the coffee estate which is a part of the property. Management asked us about our experience at check-in and how we felt at hotel. The location of home stay was emailed to us and our preference for food was asked about 24 hours before time of our arrival. Room contains library of books, dumbles for exercise. Minuses: Environment is bit hot. Air Conditioner should be provided in both the rooms. When the charges are equivalent to what we pay for 3-4 star hotels, we expect that driver's food should not be charged extra. If you are single person or one couple in the homestay then you might feel bit lonely. Overall I would give four stars.

If you are looking for a place away from all the buzz, in the midst of nature, this is the one. The rooms are spacious and clean

We enjoyed the stay, comfortable accommodation, pleasant and green environment. Food and service by Sanjay and Badri at the venue was excellent.

We loved the stay at Vansukh. It felt like we were living in the forests with no one to disturb us. Woke up to the sound of nature and birds chirping. I suggest if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of modern day life this little cottage is perfect! Sanjay and Badri, the two caretakers, were fabulous. Always inquiring us if we need anything. The food was amazing, and we all were waiting on our next meal :), they were very polite and were ever ready to serve us throughout the day. This place is away from Madekari and all the main areas so plan your travel in Coorg accordingly.

Serene, peaceful and luxurious are the words I wud use to describe Sukhalay property. The caretakers were wonderful and very caring. The food was amazing!! And the thing I loved the most was the architecture. It was absolutely smashing and very well maintained. One of the very few properties that you will exactly the same as u see in photos or even better than them. Wud love to recommend others but only after I have done my future bookings first ;)

Amal did a great job arranging the food and stay for us. His family has been warm and welcoming and catered to all our requests during the stay. The property is well maintained with spacious rooms, and clean (URL HIDDEN) is ideal for a break from city life and the seclusion it provides helps one zone out. It has ample space around for one to lounge around.

Clean and well maintained homestay. Best place to relax for weekend. Good if you have self vehicle for travel..

The place is awesome. Neat and clean. Owners we very friendly and very much helpfully. Food was awesome. Felt like home away home. I recommend this place to all.

Perfect place for a family (or group) of 5-6 members. Amal and his parents who stay in the vicinity are very friendly and always there to help. Amal is quick to respond to queries and good in giving suggestions. The place as such is not very far from tourist destinations so travelling back and forth should not be an issue. There is not much restaurants nearby, however if you like Kerala food, the closest available option is "Real Food" which is hardly 1Km away and you won't be disappointed. However Amal's parents on request would provide home cooked food based on your interests and I must mention Amal's mom is a great cook.

Great place for a family vacation! House is surrounded by a beautiful garden.

Had a (URL HIDDEN) one will disturb you. U can have fun at night

Chilla homestays was a dream type of stay for us. The hosts, the entire family of four, husband wife and two adult sons were gems and treated us like guests to their house. They ensured we had a great time, acted as our travel guide as well. We felt so homely and pampered too. We took a walk around their small coffee plantation. They were happy to buy coffee and pepper for us, so that we got the best around and they also gave away a few papaya and jackfruit grown in their garden as compliments for our stay. We are surely staying there again when we go to Wayanad. Very highly recommended.

Amazing place to relax and spend quality time with your friends and family. Welcoming hosts make you feel homely.

We LOVED our stay at this property, and our amazing hosts. Dilip's in-laws hosted us, with great meals by Ms. Alice and a fabulous orientation to the town and to their spice farm by Mr. Babu. He also helped us arrange and curate a full day of sightseeing with an excellent driver, culminating in sightings of wild elephants, Indian bison, and endangered Lion-Tailed Macaques. If the Airbnb app allows it, I will post a photo of the elephant. We also saw a domestic elephant from the porch at daybreak. The treehouse itself is sparkling clean and private, with a view of the river and accompanying bird songs. We have stayed in many fabulous Airbnb properties on four continents, and our stay here was one of the best.

Swinging in a hammock on a lazy summer afternoon, watching fireflies light up your summer night and waking up to the sound of birds chirping early in the morning.Couldn't have asked for more .. This is the go to place if you want to spend time close to nature yet not too far from all essentials.. The property is awesome and well maintained.. The cottage is thoughtfully built and designed. the river is just stone's throw away from the sit out area.. Dilip's parents are great hosts and teachers by profession. They will make you feel comfortable throughout your stay. They served delicious authentic Kerala food for breakfast and also offered farm grown fruits along with breakfast... Green tranquil nature with great host and delicious breakfast. Enjoyed every part of our stay. Thanks for hosting us .. cheers !!

A great place to have a relaxed getaway with no one to bother. The place is easily accessible and has some great traditional Kerala messes for food in 1-2 kms radius. Dilip's in laws are amazing hosts and treated us like family. The river adds to the serenity of the place and once can relax at the river bank in the evenings. With all the greenery and seclusion around, this is one of the best listings on AirBnB in Wayanad.

The treehouse is stunning at dawn and dusk, especially since it's right on the water. I loved reading on the balcony and watching the sky change colors. Dilip's family go above and beyond- providing delicious breakfast including fruits from their garden as well as other Kerala specialties. Babu, Dilip's father-in-law also went to great lengths to connect me with farmers in the area, and give me a beautiful route to run on. They are genuinely wonderful people. The room itself is very small, and being literally a treehouse- there are bugs and spiders that despite having screens on all the windows and doors, are hard to keep out. My only complaint was that when it rained, the roof leaked and wet my entire suitcase. For an already slightly cramped room, the inconvenience of a leaking roof soaking all my belongings was quite frustrating.

Dilip was a lovely host. The effort and love that they have taken to build the cottage really shows and it's one of the most beautiful, serene and calming places I've seen. Make sure you visit in the winters as I'm sure it would be even better!

We stayed for three days in paradise. The new tree house is beautifully situated in the palm garden overlooking the river. We felt super relaxed to sit well in the evening on the balcony and look to nature. Mr. Babu is an excellent host who has always helped us with all our concerns and for us, has organized a trip and boarding the arrival and departure. The contact in advance with Dilip was absolutely helpful. Highly recommended, we had a wonderful time.

I, along with my few other friends, planned this trip and when we were looking for a nice calm place to stay, we came across this Willow Huts., loved it in the photos, hence we booked it ., the host is very approachable and helpful .. since the booking was confirmed , Zubin helped us plan the two days in Wayanad and we have a lovely time at his place ., it's as or even more beautiful than we see in the photos and the house also has a stretch of farm land beside the villa which is perfect for exploring .. thanks Zubin and Shawn for being an awesome host ☺

My husband and I visited this Homestay along with our family (7 people in all). The ambience of this place is just breathtaking. It is as beautiful as it looks in the pictures. There are some plantations and paddy fields attached to the place that you can walk down to and explore. It's like a small world in itself. Zubin was a gracious host who attended to all our requests. Five stars for the experience. We will definitely go back whenever we want to spend a couple of days secluded from the world in the midst of nature.

Nice

Zubin was fantastic! He went out of his way to make sure we were taken care of before, during and after our stay. We can't thank him enough for his very generous hospitality. Look forward to returning.

Average

Good value for money facility, with absolutely fantastic host!!! The location might seem remote,but zubin reaches out to support you with all your requests. A scenic location and brings you more close to nature.

We stayed here for three days. Best place for individual home stay with friends & family. Excellent support from Zubin and his friend . Rooms are very clean and exactly as in the image. Few sightseeing places are very near. Ordered foods are yummy & awesome. Best place for enjoying nature with calm atmosphere within good budget .

Willow Hut was awesome to stay especially the location of the resort. Host Zubin was very helpful, arranges every thing you need and guided us thought our stay. Food served was very tasty and full. Service provided to us was awesome. Definitely would love to visit again during monsoon season.

Great place to be if you want to leave the city and just be. The access is pretty easy if you follow Aradhana's directions. The place is set in amidst of a beautiful coffee estate. Its a beautiful house with a great front porch(you'll enjoy this more than anything else). The food provided was nice(The pork curry is the star of the lot) and we had a great barbeque around the fire. So if you want to have a quiet weekend this is the place to be.

It was like staying with friends. I have never been treated so warmly by hosts. From the moment we arrived they took care of us well, helped with suggestions on places to visit and shared very tasty food with us. My toddler daughter had a particularly enjoyable time.

So as soon as we reached madikari, the transportation issue was taken care of by the host, even though Aradhana was not there but it was a delightful pleasure to stay with her family, the place is beautiful and have a coffee plantation and pond inside the estate itself. The dog (tiger) is a real human loving dog, food is delicious even aunty shared her special recipes with my mother and she even gifted us her home made betelnut wine. Overall the stay was amazing.

Booking night watch was a very good decision. The place and surrounding was simple awesome and rich with nature. Aradhana's parents are a very good company, uncle gave us a very good guidance along with maps to visit different places nearby. Aunty's food was fingure licking good and i would suggest to have food at homestay. The pets in the house were very friendly especially the german shepherd "Tiger" he always wants to play with guests and harmless to kids. I would rate the place and company 4 out of 5. I will surely stay in the same homestay if i go to Coorg.

They are great hosts.The house itself is a very big and comfortable.Location of the place is bit far from the cities and town and is ideal for a weekend getaway. Hosts are very welcoming and and there is a lot of sight seeing which can be done around the place. Overall,it was a very comfortable stay.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Home cooked food by aunt was delicious. This place is good place to unwind and enjoy the natural beauty.

Amazing hosts to stay with.This place is a perfect weekend getaway from the hustles and bustles of the city.Lush green coffee estates ,peaceful environment,coupled with yummy homely food-there's nothing more you can ask for.Their pets were really friendly and made our staying perfect,specially their dog "tiger" with whom we instantly became friends.The hosts also guided us very well for the best sightseeing nearby ,and we loved trekking with them on the last day before we left. Aunty made sure we had everything organic-from coffee to veggies and what not. Aradhana even helped us a lot in providing the detailed route since we were traveling for the first time and the communication with her was very transparent and clear. My friends were really happy and we would surely visit this place if we visit Coorg again.

I stayed for 2 days in coorg . It was wonderful experience staying with Aradhna and family... They are very helping and the food was amazing. Not to forget the yummy biryani and amazing breakfast... They are very humble and helpful.. Kudos to aradhana and family... Will definitely recommend them for staying;)

Friendly & helpful host, nice property with green surroundings. Good pool with clean water. Food was also clean and tasty. Ideal for a group of friends to spend a lazy weekend and spend time together. Would definitely recommend the place.
