I had a truly wonderful stay at the resort, nestled in a gorgeous cardamom plantation. The rooms were well-maintained and very comfortable. The highlight for me was the attentive and warm staff who really made us feel special throughout our visit. While the food offered was exceptional, the cost for dining was slightly on the higher side. Overall, a perfect place for relaxation, but it could use a few improvements in terms of privacy between cottages.

I had a wonderful stay at Ambady Estate, nestled among cardamom plantations and offering a tranquil environment. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, although a bit cold at night since there was no heating. The dining was a highlight with delicious meals, but I was left wanting for Wi-Fi access in the rooms. The location, while remote, provided a peaceful retreat and is perfect for exploring the scenic hills around Munnar.

Staying at the resort was an incredible experience, tucked away in a peaceful rainforest environment just a short drive from Munnar. The spacious cottages offered amazing views, and the staff were genuinely welcoming and attentive. However, I wish I could have stayed longer, as there was so much to explore, and I could have done with more dining options. Overall, it was great value for the comfort and amenities provided.
