Kurumba Village Resort - I had nature hangover after I returned. Loved It So much.
I was in Kurumba on 15th & 16th Sep08 for our 1st wedding Anniversary . I must say I didnt regret our decision. We completely enjoyed ourselves. We were given cottage - 104. Paid approx INR 5300 per night. Heres what Ive to say:
Distance - Approx 35kms from Ooty - takes about an hour. Ahead of Coorg. Warmer during day but pleasent during nights.
Its a proper Jungle Resort. Dont expect it to be lavish.
It cuts you off from the rest of the world as only BSNL works+ Cable is there but doesnt catch signals, just 4 channels - News, Music and 2 Tamil. So its just you and your group to completely enjoy. Plus point for me as my hubby could not watch T.V and was 100% with me. Lols.
Staff - Extremely welcoming and warm. Every staff member from Manager to Cleaner, every time theyll meet u, treats you with respect.
Food - is typical south Indian. As we are from North so didnt enjoy much. Its very spicy as spices used are from their own garden. Pure and original.
6.Drinks - They dont have bar so no hard drinks served. You can have yours in room.
- Swimming Pool gives you the best view. Must enjoy pool even if u cant swim as water is just 54 feet deep.
8.The resort is very neat and clean. Seems like brand new although its 3 years old as they say.
9.No food or snacks are served in Room. you need to go to resturant which is open and gives you the view of jungle valley.
10.In your room, all you can hear is birds chiripping or sound of a small stream flowing thru resort. Its calm and total privacy. It will bring you close to nature.
We loved it. hope you will too.
