Pugmarks Jungle Lodge

We had a great 3 night stay at the resort. Our room was clean and spacious. The vibe of the place is super relaxed. The staff is very courteous and the service is great. Would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to connect with nature.

I booked Pugmark Jungle Lodge Resort through Booking.com., and it clearly stated that there was air conditioning, but when I got there, I realized that not only was there no air conditioning in the room, but it was also very hot during the day. (It should also be remembered that the rent for the room is over Rs. 5000)The cleanliness of the room is very poor. There is dirt and dust in many places. Cobwebs are clearly visible in many places in the room, which is very troublesome for allergy sufferers.The staff was very cooperative and the location was good. The food could have been a little more delicious.

The breakfast was nice; however, I would suggest you have some instant coffee around. The coffee was not nice at all. The staff were very courteous and accommodating.

The room was not as big as shown in the photos. I would suggest, turn the AC on an hour before the guest checks in to the tree house, it was like a microwave when we checked in.

A really unique jungle experience staying in a ‘treehouse’ just on the edge of the wildlife reserves. My room was large, clean with a great balcony which overlooked the palm trees of the resort and great for monkey and bird watching! Pugmarks even had its own watchtower which was so peaceful to sit in the morning and watch the wildlife come to life.The staff couldn’t have been more helpful taking me on a bike ride, organising tuktuks and taxis and making sure I was properly fed - the food was absolutely amazing and really generous portions.Thank you Gopa, Shinoj and the rest of the Pugmarks team for making my stay so special.

The quietness of the property surrounded by nature

Food and cleanliness are less than average (no housekeeping was done during the 5 days)

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful resort surrounded by lush greenery and tranquil nature. The warm hospitality of the staff made the experience even more memorable. The resort’s amenities are very good - swimming pool, spacious rooms and nice vegetarian food too.We even upgraded our stay to the Tree house for one night and it was a mind blowing experience. With Jacuzi and great views amidst nature, this is one of a kind. The Tholpetty wildlife sanctuary and Kuruvadeep are quite nearby and had a great time there. We even had a great luck in spotting a Tiger @ Nagarhole wildlife reserve when passing out. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway amidst nature!

This is a place where one can stay comfortably amidst nature and silence. The entire team was extremely welcoming, warm, and friendly. The rooms were clean, and the beds were suitable for a good night's sleep. The swimming pool was beautiful and well-maintained, and the food was delicious; Chef Prameela and her team were fantastic. Gopa and Shyju were always willing to assist. The early morning walk with Gopa was unforgettable, and his efforts to preserve the surrounding forest are invaluable.

Remote location in the middle of the jungle. Super nature all around. Beautifully maintained pool.Very nice staff. Super tasty food cooked fresh every day. Dedicated chef.The boat trip on the local river was also very impressive.The tree house is beautifully furnished and in a fantastic romantic location surrounded by greenery. You have absolute peace and quiet. Only the sounds of the jungle can be heard.

By Indian standards, it was a rather expensive resort where expectations were not met in some spots.

I had the most incredible stay at Pugmarks Jungle Lodge in Wayanad, and it was truly a highlight of my travel experiences. Surrounded by the beauty of nature.The accommodations were charming and comfortable, perfectly blending rustic charm with modern amenities. I stayed in the newly built tree house, which offered stunning views of the surrounding forest.What made our stay truly exceptional was the owner Mr.Gopa Varma, who went out of his way to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. He personally took us on a night safari and a morning walk, sharing his deep knowledge and passion for the local wildlife and environment. During the walk, I was lucky enough to spot wild elephants—a moment that I will cherish forever! His enthusiasm and dedication to providing a meaningful experience were truly inspiring.The activities at the lodge are perfect for both adventure seekers and nature lovers. From thrilling wildlife safaris to peaceful nature walks, every activity is curated to connect you with the stunning wilderness of Wayanad.The food was another highlight—homemade, delicious, and tailored to different tastes. The warm hospitality, combined with the unique opportunity to explore nature up close, makes Pugmarks Jungle Lodge a must-visit destination. If you’re looking for a place where adventure meets tranquility and where the hosts treat you like family, this is it. I can’t wait to return and relive these amazing moments.

Pugmarks stay was excellent. We went with family. The location, ambience, food, stay, rooms everything was excellent. Children enjoyed the location, swimming pool etc. It was a relaxing weekend. The owner, staff all were good, supportive.

Nothing. Everything was nice.

The location was very calm and peaceful. Swimming pool was fantastic. It was very clean and neat. We enjoyed a lot in the pool.Rooms were neat and clean. The Cedar suite had a fireplace which was a warm and comfortable experience. Dinner and breakfast was decent. The staffs and the owner Mr. Verma was super nice and the morning walk with him was refreshing. Overall it was a wonderful stay.

The Cedar suite is completely of wood so there were few wood bugs here and there.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The owner is a very helpful nice man .He took us for a lovely walk and evening drive to see the amazing elephants. The property is well maintained. The rooms have a lovely safari feel. The furniture is lovely. The mattresses are very clean and nice also the bedding crisp white .very comfortable. The food is very nice home cooked and they farm at the property. The area around the property is nice to stroll around .also has a look out post. The pool area is nice and tranquil. Would highly recommend the accommodation. ?

The place is situated in the midst of Jungle. You can spot wild animals (mainly elephants, deer n bisons) often near the resort. Mr. Gopa Verma was an excellent host, very friendly, welcoming n caters to needs. He also takes extra effort n suggests nice places for sightseeing. The staffs were very helpful n polite. The food was great, they cook as per our needs. The room was spacious with fire place inside the room. Bathroom was clean n well maintained. Totally a place worth for couples & Family.

Nothing to dislike.

Good

No one were there No CCTV ...our car glass broke in the parking and since no cctv we could not find how it broke

Room ambience was good. Neatly maintained rooms. Location and property layout is excellent

All 3 days they said pool is not ready for use. Food was not great. Nothing to do in this property other than good rooms. They mentioned coffee maker but other than hot water cattle no amenities for making coffee.

The pool is amazing, very clean. Most likely the ambience is perfect. I love seeing the monkeys playing comfortably around the property.

The way up to the room is very rocky. It has to be cemented so it'll not difficult to bring the luggage up. The lights are all dim, since it's forest area, there should be a bright light available in each room.

This is a small homestay type property built with a lot of care. Cottage structure is pleasing to the mind. All made with wood, you can hardly see any metal and very little concrete.They have 4 homely staff, more like family. Managed by Shinoj and Somnath, supported very well by Maneesh and Pramila.

Kitchen was located at a distance from dining area, could become a problem in rainy season.Parking area need to be improved.Noise of other guests need to be controlled, esp after 11pm.Since it's a homestay type lodge, having a mini fridge (100 litre) in every cottage would be useful for guests.Can keep and sell ice creams in summer at least - will make good business!As you continue to expand, pls arrange an outdoor play area - for volleyball/throwball/ badminton and an indoor one for TT/Fuseball/ pool.

The location is isolated and inviting the pool could have been a little more cleaner the staff is helpful and receptive, it's not lucious but the stay is unique. Good food and unique room interior make the stay memorable.

The breakfast could have more options and bath towels need to be of better quality.

The stay was good. The rooms were well maintained.Its next to the forest area so the drive or ride towards the resort was beautiful. It's a great place to enjoy the nature and relax
