Cardamom County by Xandari

I chose Cardamom County by Xandari because my previous stay, some years back with my husband had been so enjoyable & exemplary. So, it was without hesitation that I chose it for group of friends. A big plus is it’s ideally situated on the Main Street so you can walk to local shops whilst still having the peace of the beautiful gardens where you are staying. A negative is that the rooms are situated ***** relatively steep uneven paths. Not ideal for those unsteady on their feet. This time I found it had been taken over by Xandari & not for the better. The whole resort was a bit tired, although I could see that the grounds staff kept the gardens in immaculate condition. The rooms & bathrooms were dated. I moved to a ground level room from my very high level one -definitely to my detriment, it was dank and the hairdryer sparked. The room was not particularly clean. Especially, the drinking glasses. The food was still very good. The staff in the dining room, excellent, especially the senior staff member. Anjali in reception did all she could to make up for room problems.

Overall excellent Experience A spacious,well-maintained property with a large swimming pool and games. The food is delicious and the hospitality is excellent Well maintained premium resort in the thekkadi kerala We had a fantastic stay

The rooms are very well maintained and so is the property. The staff is very polite and helpful. Its very well located especially if one wishes to engage in the Periyar forest trek or other activities. Plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The food was a tad disappointing - can do with a wider option of local cuisines in both the ala carte and breakfast buffets - afterall kerala is known for its fantastic cuisine.
