SaffronStays Aranya Vilas & Raanwaara Cottage

1)The staff is very nice 2)The Indian food was good. 3) It is well-located.

1)The picture of the villa shown on the site is a set of rooms that you cannot access unless you have booked them. We were in a smaller room near the pool. There is no dining area or a common place to sit around. You are either in your room or forced to eat outside in a pavilion 2)There are no walks around the property.. you need to take your car out to look for a walk or a trek. Therefore you feel even more cooped in that tiny room 3)Time and again other guests would put out portable loudspeakers with loud music.. in a quiet place this was extremely disturbing. And unless we asked the staff to tell them to shut it down, nobody did. I understand it is not the property's problem.. but it is terrible and you should have a rule on this that is strictly implemented. We were totally frazzled by the loud music since we prefer to read or watch nature.

Not happy with food, lacked both quality and quantity rest stay was good.

Food

The villa we were staying in had a major issue with rat infestation in the surrounding trees. Due to which the balcony door couldn't be left open at all and the rats were a menace at night with the noise, so sleep was disturbed and broken. Food quality was average and the food tasted poor. Also very expensive for the basic stuff you're being offered. NO value for money ! Besides these two issues, the location and the view is great, the room is spacious, clean and comfy and the staff are very helpful.

Ok ok

Food.

Amazing place managed by awesome host Neelam Ma'am who knows lot about hospitality industry! Views are stunning n stff there was very nice!

Weather related issues like power, little water coming in n internet disruption but that too was very little to bother as range for cell was there

We liked the location, views from the balcony, service with the meals as well as the facilities available within the estate. The size of the room and cleanliness was appreciable as well. It was good value for money.
