Exquisite Dining Experience

During my stay, the dining at Ambady Estate was superb! We enjoyed a buffet style breakfast and dinner daily, featuring an extensive selection of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes. The food quality surpassed my expectations, with each meal generously portioned and delicious. Every member of our group left entirely satisfied, and the hospitality was unbeatable.

Comfortable Cottages

Each bungalow at Ambady Estate was a sanctuary of comfort. My room was spacious, beautifully designed, and impeccably clean. Large windows allowed natural light to pour in, and the private courtyard was the perfect spot to unwind in solitude. The beds were large and incredibly comfortable, ensuring we rested well throughout our stay.

Spacious and Clean Bathrooms

The bathroom in my cottage added to the overall comfort of my stay. It was large, spacious, and very clean, which made the experience just that much more enjoyable. Having an inviting and well-maintained bathroom truly enhances the comfort level, and Ambady Estate definitely delivered on this front.

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.
