Guest Reviews
- Franka (10/5): Paradies am See - Wunderschöner Ort direkt am See in ruhiger Lage mit grandiosem Ausblick und super-tollem Frühstücksbuffet, bestem Service und herrlichem Infinity Pool
- Vinoth (9/5): -
- Shamini priyanka (8/5): -
- Hendrik (9/5): - Great staff, great big pool. Overall everything looked really nice. Would totally recommend going here. Nothing really, maybe an extra chair in the garden in front of the cottage, as there was only one big seat.
- Bilal (10/5): -
- janet (9/5): Total relaxation envelopped in nature. - Very beautiful, tranquil, peaceful location. Beautiful grounds , full of birdsong and flowers, shrubs and trees. Helpful, friendly, smiling staff. Very good food and service in the restaurant. Some interesting places to visit in the vicinity. Grounds are lovely to walk in, but once outside the resort, there are no obvious or marked walking paths.
- klaus (10/5): - Es ist ein bezaubernder Ort! In einer großen, sehr gepflegten Parkanlage sind sehr schön gestaltete Gebäude, Bungalows, Restaurant, Spiel- und Lesehaus, Rezeption, Spa-Zentrum, Poolareal, Spielplatz, Teehaus. Das Restaurant bietet vorzügliche Küche.
- Lekshmi (2/5): -
- Wiebe (10/5): Een koninklijk verblijf in een tropische oase. - Schitterend resort, top design, een oase van een tropische tuin met veel vogels, zwembad, massage en zeer goed restaurant. Alles was schitterend.
- Julio (10/5): - Todo muy bien
- Dganit (10/5): - המקום מקסים ורגוע אין חדר כושר
- Manesh (8/5): -
- BB (10/5): Mooi resort op prachtige locatie. - Mooi resort op prachtige locatie aan het meer. Je voelt je midden in de natuur. Personeel is erg vriendelijk en servicegericht. Het eten was heel erg goed. De ventilatoren en het restaurant maken het onaangenaam. Vooral bij het ontbijt. Ze kunnen blijkbaar niet zachter worden gesteld.
- Ami (5/5): Not worth the price - Location, rooms, landscape, open dining space Maintenance- dining area had heavily stained rain covers.
Alcohol options - horrible selection of wine - tasted like gasoline.
Communication of welcome staff needs improvement - unclear, not pleasant, no proper welcome, poor appearance. Overall a bad first impression.
For the price, everything should be maintained and managed to a higher level.
- karthikeyan (7/5): Cleaning may improve happiness.. - Landscaping good and maintained a lot of flowers in and around the property. The personnel done the search at the room for anything missing from the room and if they done before check-in, they would make the surrounding cleaner.
- Vineeth (6/5): - Everything was good but not up to the price. Food was just ok .n very pricey The picture is misleading. This a flooded picture of the walkways
- Durai Arun (9/5): -
- Sander (10/5): - Perfect Nothing
- Unnikrishnan (10/5): - Excellent location The jacuzzi was broken and maintenance poorly carried out.
- Manuraj (9/5): - Awesome location , nice and clean room We were stranded in hotel parking due to car breakdown due to auxiliary battery drain , no one in the hotel bothered to check what went wrong, we were travelling with a 1 year old baby and no one showed up the basic courtesy to enquire about the issue, we were in parking lot after checkout for 4 hours waiting for service centre guys to resolve the issue.
- Muhammed (7/5): -
- Ramen (10/5): One of the best vacation we ever had. An exceptional place to unwind. - Excellent location, beautifully built and maintained. Food quality was exceptional. Nothing much to complain about. Overall an amazing experience.

- Athish (4/5): The resort’s wedding setup took over the garden and made it unsafe for kids - Lake View
Evening Snack
Rooms There was a wedding event the next day, and they took over the entire garden area with their arrangements.
The resort didn’t seem to value guest privacy or safety.
Stage décor items were scattered all over the ground — it was hard to let young ones play freely, as we were worried about their safety.

- Zamir (8/5): Great place to visit but needs improvement as well - Amazing location. One of the most beautiful places in the world. Some amazingly good staff. Some rude and unhelpful staff at gate. Not so welcoming at reception.
- Navin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lekshmi (9/5): Superb -
- Swapna (5/5): We feel overpriced and cheated - Location We were charged 22,656/- against 20% monsoon discount the hotel provides for the direct booking or walk in guest! We feel cheated!
- Vignesh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arun (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vivek (10/5): Exceptional -

- Kumar (8/5): Good.. Could improve on the interaction -
- Kayal (8/5): Good - Good Exit can be made safe because of the proximity to highways.
- Reitoku (4/5): Went with great expectations but...... - Beautiful scenery. Quiet location. At night, somebody tried to break into my sister's room. By the time we checked we could not find anyone. Security is a question in this facility.
- Gurram (9/5): Superb -
- Rajendran (10/5): Exceptional -
- Reshmi (8/5): Very good -
- John (8/5): Very good -
- Asokan (9/5): It was pleasent and memorable stay! - It was fantastic property with several facilities/Activities for kids/Adults..Good for spending time with the family/Friends Its bit over pricey ..Also food is too much pricy and there is no restaurant available in and around 30Km for BF and dinner…

- Ashish (9/5): Superb -
- Poonam (10/5): Exceptional - It's a BEAUTIFUL piece of paradise, in the middle of nowhere. Exactly how we wanted to spend our anniversary weekend. The property is beautiful, along a gorgeous lake and just trees.
It's pure therapy!
A big shoutout to the amazing staff. Being frequent travellers, we always feel, warm staff always elevates the holiday experience. They are friendly, helpful and yet non intrusive.
Next big shoutout, the Spa! The therapists are fantastic! And the space is spick and span!
Next big shoutout, the food. It's brilliant.
Please do try their fish and especially Kerala style mutton sukha. It's out of this world.
The villas are extremely clean and very big. There is nothing like sitting in the patio, drinking your beers and watching the lake. The time stands still and the world goes by.
The success of running an hospitality business, is not just attention to details but person involvement of the owners.
We had an opportunity to catch-up with Lakshmi, over lunch, hear her passion about this resort..and just so many things.
Thank you Anantya for such a memorable experience. That our holiday was just so short!
- Balkrishna (8/5): Very good - Ambience Price
- Janet (9/5): A delightful stay for the second time and we hope to be back next year. - The beautiful, peaceful location, right on the lake with the mountain peaks in the distance. The beautifully kept grounds full of flowers, bushes, trees and birds. The very comfortable lakeside villa. The big swimming pool and the restaurant surrounded by water. The staff were friendly and helpful without exception and the service was generally very efficient. The food was very good and the team in the restaurant were exemplary. Nothing.
- Joel (9/5): Superb -
- Aarik (10/5): Perfect relaxing vacation - By far my best stay in India. The location is serene, beautiful and picture perfect. Rooms are spacious, luxurious, both modern and traditional.

- Matt (8/5): Very good -
- Harinni (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kumar (6/5): Anantya not the best option for vibe - Location and view was excellent. Staff was okay. Best for people who prefer and calm, quiet and nature lovers. Breakfast was good. Low Value for money spent. Cleanliness was not optimal. Not an happening resort with activities or exploration option minimal. Dinner option is very minimal and expensive to the quality and quantity.
- Prem (1/5): Worst. We all got rashes including my 1 year old son due to unwashed linens - The lake and the area surrounded by mountains The cleanliness, courtesy of the staffs, food, value for the money

- Alan (6/5): Pleasant - 1.I came for the beauty of the location.
2. The waiting staff as well as most of the staff except the restaurant manager is very pleasant and helpful.
3.The chef was very friendly and came out to talk to us 1. Reception staff is not polite
2. Restaurant manager is not courteous and not helpful.
3. Rooms are not clean enough. I found a folded handkerchief under my quilt
4.When we go to a resort, it’s not just the ambience and location but also food. There’s only buffet and if we need ala Cart we have to choose from the buffet. I didn’t prefer any dish from the lunch menu on the checkout day as my family but we were forced to have because we didn’t know any nearby restaurants
5. The reception staff will start calling from 10 am to ask for checkout at 12, but Checkin though they said was 2pm, room wasn’t ready even by 3.30pm

- Vivian (6/5): Pleasant -
- Venkadesan (4/5): Very dirty rooms and dirty beds and very costly which does not justify at all. - Only good thing is the location of the property. It is a very old property and very poorly maintained. Beds are torn and dirty, out door showers has lots of algae and never cleaned. Food is average but very costly. Definitely not worth for money spent.
- Vipintina (8/5): Very good -
