"The main reason we prefer the resort is it is a microcosm of Kodaikanal -- on days when we retire early to the resort, the kids continue to play at the resort."

“This pet-friendly resort struck me as a particularly welcoming spot near Kodaikanal, with staff known for creating a familial atmosphere. The cuisine appears to be a highlight, tempting guests to dine in rather than venture out, while the grounds offer ample space for both humans and pets to explore. It seems a return visit is often on guests' minds.”
