However, food was the biggest negative here. When you go to such a place just to relax and don't want to go out at all, good food plays a very important part of your experience. The breakfast was included in the package, but except a few things it was not edible. South Indian like Idli and Vada were good, but dosa was crap. English spread was extremely bad, croissants, muffins, donuts, cakes, etc, were not edible at all. It seemed as if it was picked from a cheap eatery somewhere outside. Also, due to pandemic situation, it was mentioned on their website that they have a gap of 24 hours between one guest checking out from a villa and another checking in, however, in the villa next to me i saw the guests checking out in the morning and the next ones checking in a few hours later. ##### Mayank Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Piyush Oct 6, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Clean and well maintained . ##### Piyush Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### APURVA Sep 28, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing experience Spacious modern rooms with all amenities you can ask for.

It was a good experience overall. The spa is very nice. The property itself has been beautifully designed. It needs a refresh in some parts, but is still clean and hygienic. Room service was a bit slow, but that was probably due to the holiday rush over New Year’s Eve. There was a very well organised New Year party with strict crowd control and social distancing norms adhered too. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0517220DE1C650EE3595B92C78009544ED57EE761609793875588.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/81B4114A4D13DC0DA1A4985BFE8F025DEDDFF60D1609793876068.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E327161C323B0AEB2A69A241F99EF10C2BD16F881609793875801.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8368F3C3AFC1B7E680F1A7602709BE36A9DE0F8D1609793878339.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sandeep Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### deep Dec 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A short stay at the One of the best place An amazing experience slightly expensive but worth it ##### deep Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Prakash Dec 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The facilities are awesome. However, for the price I wanted there to be better food - there's really only one restaurant available. ##### Prakash Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### NR, New York, NY Apr 7, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great property and good food, restaurant service should improve but really nice overall. ##### NR Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chetan Oct 29, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Simply Outstanding This place is simply the jewel of all high-end resorts in this part of India. The luxury and facilities are all one point. The villas are very well appointed and maintained. Everything works! The pools are high quality. The ambiance is very relaxing and refreshing The most impressive feature is the wonderful hospitality. The team at the resort are very warm and welcoming. I was particularly impressed by Mr. Wilfred Sequeira, who went beyond the call of duty or hospitality to make my family extra comfortable. His efforts surpassed all expectations. His team was with him at every step to achieve his desire to make this a memorable holiday for us. The food is really much better than any of the resorts i have visited in the region. I am definitely going there many times over. ##### Chetan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Heather, Toronto Jun 19, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stunning atmosphere, friendly staff Beautiful grounds, very calm escape from the city! Staff are friendly and helpful. Villas are clean and impressive. Private lap pool was a nice surprise. ##### Heather Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### KatyR, Hyderabad Apr 24, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peace, quiet and fresh air Lovely stay - all the hotel staff were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble including making an off the menu cocktail once we'd given the recipe! Room was lovely - splash pool is a nice touch. Food in the restaurant gave us a good chance to sample local flavours without over eating. Not so much variety is you're looking for continental although not sure why you'd bother. Fine dining it isn't but tasty and cooked with love it is - thumbs up. Hotel was never crowded probably owing to the small number of villas. Would definitely return. Note: If booking via Expedia and you have the post pay option stick to your guns and pay on arrrival don't be harassed by the head office to make an early payment via a bank transfer (what decade are we living in?!) This was the only downside with the head office letting the hotel down! May be send the head office staff to the hotel for some lessons in customer service! ##### KatyR ### 6/10 Okay #### Dev, Bangalore Apr 18, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Awesome Property Run By Average Management & Stafd One the most beautiful resorts we've been to - superb view, great design & self-sufficient. Add to it the charm of Chikmagalur's weather! Stands upto being the headquarters of Serai. The only disappointment with the property is that its run by a very average team - late check ins, non-prepared rooms, unclean pool water, not working AC in the restaurant, average food (no specialty food) and mostly people with fewer smiles & care (as compared to hospitality industry overall - or at least among the premium ones). While you do enjoy the peace & serenity that the well conceived property brings, you'd very likely be leaving wondering how much better a property of this kind can be run and feel alas for it! ##### Dev ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 3, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Serai Chikamagalur Good holiday.
