Reviews and Ratings
My stay at Ambady Estate was absolutely wonderful, set on a hillside with stunning views and surrounded by lush nature. The bungalows were spacious and impeccably clean, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. The warm hospitality from the staff truly stood out, and the dining options were plentiful and absolutely delicious. However, the Wi-Fi access was limited to the reception area, which might be inconvenient for some. Overall, a tranquil and luxurious escape!
I had a wonderful stay at the resort, surrounded by lush greenery and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making me feel welcome throughout my visit. The rooms were clean and spacious, perfect for a family getaway. However, I did find the food to be just average and there were a couple of bugs in the room, which might deter some guests. Overall, it’s a beautiful place to connect with nature and unwind.
Our stay at Ambady Estate was nothing short of exceptional. The serene location surrounded by nature provided a peaceful retreat, and the rooms were spacious and well-maintained. The dining experience surpassed our expectations with a wide variety of delicious options, but it would have been nice to have a designated play area for kids. Overall, the estate offered great value for money with its stunning views and attentive service.
This resort is an excellent escape, tucked away in nature offering a peaceful and picturesque setting. The cottages are charming and clean, making for a comfortable stay, while the staff truly go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. The food was good but could be improved, especially considering the portion sizes. Overall, an idyllic place for nature lovers with a few minor maintenance issues to note.
My experience at the resort was quite mixed. On one hand, the location was simply breathtaking and offered a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature. The hospitality from the staff was definitely a highlight, making me feel welcomed. However, the villa I stayed in needed a bit more maintenance, and the dining experience left something to be desired. Overall, while there are some great aspects, I found it wasn't quite worth the cost.
