Our accomodation at Periyar was booked by Make My Trip. But if you choose to stay near the Periyar tiger reserve then this shouldn't be your choice. My husband and I both wanted to stay near the reserve but as our trip was customized by Make my trip so we couldn't help but stay here.Our entire KERALA trip was customized by them. Though it came out costly and we could have made a foreign tour out of that money, but it was truly memorable.
The resort had some Pros and cons.
Carmelia Haven is 30km away from Periyar Tiger Reserve which is bad and therefore you need a car constantly with you.We had our cottage booked near the pool side. The cottage was very comfortable, the room was luxurious and decorated with classy furniture. The bathroom was stylish . Sitting in the balcony at night you can here the sound of wild animals which was very adventurous. It was winter when we visited and therefore they arranged campfire and cultural show. After the show we played badminton and tennis . Dinner was overpriced and not that good in terms of amount,and taste. The hotel is located in such a place that you won't have option to hangout . I think being a 4.5 star hotel , the hospitality was not up to the mark. Services delayed. The cottage had power problem. Ideal for honeymooners.
Hotel Class-4.5 /5
