Kurumba Village Resort – Nature Resorts, Nilgiris, India

 Customer service team in Mumbai is a pain to deal with  Rooms are cramped  Monkey Menace  Not safe for kids  Not friendly for old age people  No privacy in the bathrooms  Food is Average  Not enough parking facility  Lack of coordination with the staff  Its much cooler in Coonoor & OOty compared to where Kurumba is located For the price you pay its better to stay at Taj or Gymkhana or Coonoor Club

A great place to get rejuvenated. Not far from the city of Coimbatore yet cut off from the hustle bustle of city life. Food was awesome(South and North Indian). Staff was courteous to accommodate guest's request if item not on the menu. Staff was very courteous and went the extra mile. They view hotel guests as their own guests hence the hospitality is unparalleled. Lots of activities, for both kids and adults alike, if you are tired of cozying up within your room . Serene atmosphere with the valley's trees deciding their own weather. It rained lightly in the valley whereas it was sunny just a few kilometers away in neighboring town. Can listen to the nonstop gushing sound of water flowing through the rocks from a nearby stream. Pure and chilly water. Few cascades a short walk away.

Staying at the Kurumba Resort is a very special experience. The staff were v welcoming & helpful - on arrival we were given flower garlands & welcome drinks. The room was very comfortable with nice touches like candles, fruit & good design & a beautiful balcony view of mountains. We hadn't realised that all meals were included (v good buffet food) as well as afternoon tea. There were also complementary activities including a plantation walk, a nature trek (I only saw a wild water buffalo & South Indian Squirrel, but there were elephants nearby) and an evening magic show as family entertainment - the v loud music for this spoiled the peace for anyone not watching but clearly was appreciated by children. The sustainable ecological approach also deserved praise, when elsewhere India suffers from plastic pollution everywhere. Overall a super place to stay.
