Wayanad Kuruva Isles Jungle Resort

Very nice resort among the villages. Room was specious, clean and very comfortable, with nice balcony. The staff was great, especially Ritto who is simply the ultimate host! He took me on a walking tour around the hotel, booked me a safari that was already fully booked online and even took me to visit his family. This resort is highly recommended!

Location is Good

Facilities are not so good

The location was beautiful. Serene.

We absolutely loved it here - the rooms are identical to those shown in the photos, spacious & clean. The local area is teeming with wildlife and nature - there were chipmunks and birds in the trees surrounding our balcony that we loved watching, and we saw a hummingbird hovering next to our table at breakfast one morning. Frogs, geckos and lizards could be seen most days and I've never seen so many dragonflys! The local dogs are well cared for and very affectionate, the local people love and respect nature very much. The food in the hotel is the best we have eaten in India (my partner has been 8 times to many parts of the country!) The variety and quality was amazing, fresh warm idlis, chapati, paratha, puris and upma were served with a variety of beautiful Keralan curries each morning and evening. The resort itself is set in a rural community surrounded by a beautiful forest filled with monkeys, elephants, bison, deer, even tigers, leopards and panthers. On journeys through the forest we saw elephants, monkeys, bison and deer standing on the side of the road very often. Jemshi, a local taxi driver who we travelled with most of the time was amazing at spotting the wildlife and would stop so we could get photos and videos. Ritto the hotel manager provided the best hospitality to us, on our first day he took us on a tour of the local area, showed us the traditional mud houses of the local tribal people and the Kabani river. We wanted to try authentic Keralan food so Ritto took us for lunch in a local village next to the river where we shared a very large fish cooked traditionally, freshly caught from the river. We also had a traditional Thali served on a banana leaf thanks to Ritto which we loved. Ritto and Jemshi also helped us arrange many activities such as a safari and got up as early as 4am to take us there, waiting for us to finish before driving us back.

That we didn't stay longer!

Breakfast was ok, but the location was great

the rooms has daampness, locks were broken and there were mould on the wall

We had an amazing stay at Kuruva Isles surrounded by lush green forest. It’s safe and the staff are very helpful. The jungle jeep safari was a thrilling experience and the food was delicious. We traveled from Bangalore and the scenic forest route was beautiful. The Kabani River is just a short walk away and we enjoyed peaceful morning walks along its banks. Don’t miss out the tree top view! Highly recommend this place for a perfect nature getaway!

Everything went smoothly with no downsides faced for us actually.

The property was very well maintained and very clean. I enjoyed my stay very well. Its a good place to stay in wayanad.

Best thing about this property is its serene location, Natural beauty surrounded by lush green. The cycling activity at the resort was an absolute highlight. Pedaling through the scenic beauty was an incredible experience, offering stunning views and a perfect way to immerse oneself in nature. The hospitality and amenities of the resort were great
