This resort is a wonderful escape into nature, situated right next to the jungle and a flowing river, which adds to its charm. My experience was greatly enhanced by the caring and helpful staff, particularly Madhu, who went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. The food was decent, though I wish there were more options available, especially during low occupancy. Overall, while the location was superb and the ambiance lovely, the facilities could use a bit of updating.
