Avadale Wayanad (Stag Groups Not Allowed)

Nice location on hill. Top

Road to the resort is very badly maintained, jeep ride is a adventure

I liked the location of the stay, rainy weather added more beauty to the surroundings. Food was delicious. Staff were friendly and helpful almost all the time.

Swimming pool did not look usable during our visit. Had dead frogs and snails in it (Can't complain because of the dense coffee plantations around and heavy downpour)

Firstly, please note that the parking area is located 1.5 kms away from the resort. From there, guests are transported to the resort in a jeep. This 20–25 minute uphill ride through the lush greenery of the 100-acre coffee estate is nothing short of an adventure in itself! A special mention to Thomas Sir (Driver) — your driving skills are truly commendable. Hats off to your professionalism and respect!The food, though from a limited menu, was satisfying and consistently well-prepared. We had almost all our meals at the property — breakfasts and dinners — and were happy with the quality and taste. Kudos to Chef Manas, and the entire kitchen team for a job well done!The housekeeping staff deserves a big thank you. Your dedication, attentiveness, and warmth made our stay very comfortable. Keep up the excellent work — your efforts truly show.It was a pleasure interacting with Sunil Sir and Ravi. Your leadership and management are clearly reflected in how smoothly everything runs. Wishing you continued success!We would definitely love to return.Until next time — keep up the great work! ??

The Avadale resorts are located at the beautiful hilltop. The ambience was awesome, food was delicious and staff behaviour was very polite.My Special thanks to Mr. Sunil (property manager) and Thomas Sir for making our trip a wonderful experience.We look forward to visiting again.

The stay, location, hospitality, food, cottages everything was exceptionally good It was memorable trip Thanks to Ravi incharge and Thomas jeep driver for being always available for everything

I really liked the location, quite secluded and private - something what i was looking for. Manager Sunil was a great help around. A couple of things to improve - Room hygiene and toilet accessories.

I had a fantastic stay at this property! The treehouse experience was truly unique and memorable, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful ambiance. The property itself is beautifully maintained, with opportunities for trekking right within the premises, which added a sense of adventure to our stay.A special mention to Manager Sunil and the staff, who were extremely kind, attentive, and always ready to help, making our visit even more comfortable. The food was delicious and added to the overall experience.

Swimming pool should have had a heater as climate is always cold. More recreational activities such as spa, outdoor games etc to be included within the resort as its a bit away from town. Slippers could have ben provided.

The houses are big and inside feels comfortable. The place is perfect for spending time inside the nature, calm and relaxing.

The property offer breakfast, lunch and dinner. We took the breakfast and dinner, the food was good, but I would suggest adding some fresh fruits for the breakfast.

The location was good

The drop from resort to parking was horrible as we planned to go to another place for one another Trip.Morning itself informed the manager that we are vacating but waited for 3 hours for the jeep to come and pick up.So our entire planning was spoiled.But the managers behaviour was not good .Try for some another properties if you want relaxed vacation

The location is stunning. The views are very pretty. Very calm and tranquil. The staff are very gracious and helpful. The grounds and lodge was super clean and very tastefully made and furnished. All set in a coffee and black pepper plantation. A great place to really relax. I will be sad to leave. One of my favourite places we have visited whilst in Southern India.

It's no problem, but be prepared for an uphill off road transfer from car park to the resort. A jeep transfer can be provided when you need to ascend or descend to the town. You will get better views of the plantation as you travel. Everyone says though, it's worth it!

Location, ambience, off road ride,

Food

The property is situated at a secluded place and we need to use a jeep to go up. It is a really good place for a perfect getaway. The rooms and property are really good. Staff (sunil, ravi, thomas, etc) are too good. Food was decent.

I would not recommend this property to anyone looking to explore wayanad as it is located at a secluded place and going up and down is a big issue. I would suggest some other stays at kalpetta if you are looking to explore wayanad and are not looking for a peaceful getaway.

The place is on an elevation and from there the views are beautiful, secluded from the hustle and bustle of the city its very calm.

Since its isolated and the to and fro is managed by their jeeps, you have to rely on the food being prepared there which is at best average or on the jeep being available. We had to wait for almost 30 mins in the parking below the hill as the jeep was waiting for some staff getting a motor repaired. On one of the days there was a corporate group and food got over by the time we reached the dining area. They took some time to prepare more.The place is no doubt beautiful and would be great if they can fix these niggles.

The location was perfect. Away from the crowd. U can see the stars in silence. Food was also nice.

The road was adventurous but it should be paved. Multiple ups and downs will feel uncomfortable.

night dinner and snaks

break fast quality and rice items to be add

Great place it stay. It is on top of a hill. Service is amazing with very cheerful staff. Clean rooms. Awesome view of the surroundings. The jeep trek (2 km) on the hill looks risky at first but it is very interesting. It takes about 20-25 minutes for those 2 km. But you will love it if you like adventure.

It is better to keep your travel To & From the resort at the minimum. The last 2 km has to be done in Jeep only and it take 20-25 minutes ( you cannot take your car) so you would not want to go out or come into the resort more than once or twice per day. Because this 2km becomes an overhead.If you are aware of this fact, then you will enjoy the trip. It is not as simple as just travelling as and when you want. You have to plan your day correctly to adjust to this overhead.

Staff and location are outstanding, kudos to managers and all the restaurant and support staff, they have managed to keep the place in a really good shape and catering to guests despite being quite remote, terrain is difficult to reach but the drivers managed to go as smooth as possible in jeeps. Couple of previous reviews have been heard and I see improvements recommended by travellers which is a great attitude to progress. Keep it up!

The place has high costs per night, perhaps a special activity or adventure could help justify that, or a bit more room inclusions like other competing properties in kerala, i am sure avadale team could come up with interesting inclusions given their experience into hospitality!

Location was great, away from commercialisation, into the woods and greens. Food was amazing- all the meals. Staff is very co operative and caring. Ravi ji at the reception, always there to help with everything. Thomas and Ranjit, jeep drivers, taking us to and fro from the resort, lovely guys!

Great service and all amenities are premium. The wooden cottages add to the ambience and we felt comfortable and at ease.

The only concern is the off-road journey to the resort. It is fine for those who are healthy but to my parents the trip caused body pain. But to those who love off-road adventures it is a great choice.

Best in all means.. rooms.. food.. view.. staff behaviour all 10/10.. will surely recommend this place and will plan to visit again.. very peaceful.. close to nature... Excellent
