Guest Reviews
- Hanesh (7/5): - Very good location No varieties of breakfast
- soni (9/5): - Location Food
- suman (8/5): Lost in nature and serenity at this private huts in the hill - Calm place in the middle of forest and serenity , great for nature lovers. Isolated houses and very spacious. Delicious , fresh prepared breakfast and good service. Very good sitting areas and garden around. Cleanliness could be improved with cleaner sheets and pillows. Difficult to commute to the place as road connecting to the stay from centre is fully gone for 2km stretch near the stay. Its very annoying and tiresome journey in car to reach to.
- Nidhin (10/5): -
- Jayaprakash (3/5): - The games and the activities Everything the room was not clean the food was not good the water omg it was a dark yellow the heater did not work.
- Najmus (10/5): - Visited the property with my family and my cat and we had an enjoyable stay at the resort. The beautiful scenic roads leading to the property were well developed making the journey a breeze. The valley views within the property were breathtaking. All the staff and were friendly and hospitable. Highly recommend for a serene getaway!
- Sachin (10/5): A perfect blend of nature, comfort, and wellness for the whole family. - We visited Zacs Valley Wellness Resort & Spa as a family and had a wonderful time! The new Ayurvedic spa was such a relaxing experience — even after a day of exploring, the treatments felt refreshing and authentic. The new road access made the drive much smoother, which really helped since we were travelling with kids. The resort team also organised trekking, camping, and a lovely waterfall tour that the whole family enjoyed. It’s peaceful, clean, and surrounded by nature — a perfect place to unwind and reconnect together. Highly recommended for families visiting Kodaikanal!
- Hari (9/5): An excellent vacation well spend. Loved every bit of the stay. - The property is located in a picturesque hill surrounded by hills, valley and stream. An amazing stay for family. Our furries really enjoyed the stay too. The staff is extremely helpful and courteous. Really need to appreciate them for doing the in room dining as they need to climb up the hill every time. Very well maintained.
- Chandan (2/5): - Nature view outside Not worth for price and its too far from centre city and its very expensive for food and its very bad. If you dont have your own vehicle you need to pay very high price for cab/taxi.
- Lenin (10/5): -
- Jaincy (10/5): -
- Prasad (9/5): -
- zacs (10/5): Fantastic rejuvenating experience - Had a wonderful 2-night stay at Zacs Wellness! The place is peaceful, surrounded by beautiful nature and perfect for a relaxing getaway. The access road to the property has been recently rebuilt and is very scenic — the drive itself feels like part of the experience. The staff were kind and attentive, and the stay overall was refreshing and rejuvenating. Highly recommend for anyone looking to unwind amidst nature! Nothing to complain
- rajeswaren (10/5): A Perfect Getaway I Never Wanted to End - I recently had the pleasure of staying at this resort, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The location is absolutely breathtaking, with panoramic views that instantly put you in vacation mode. The property is impeccably maintained, blending modern comfort with a natural charm that makes you feel relaxed the moment you arrive.The staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our stay was perfect. From the warm welcome at the reception to the attentive service at the restaurants, their professionalism and genuine hospitality made us feel valued. The rooms were spacious, spotless, and beautifully furnished, offering stunning views right from the balcony.The dining experience was exceptional, with a variety of fresh, flavorful dishes that catered to different tastes. The resort’s amenities - sparkling pools, well-equipped spa, and serene walking trails only enhanced the experience, giving us countless ways to unwind and enjoy our time.What truly sets this resort apart is its attention to detail and focus on guest comfort. Every corner feels thoughtfully designed, and every interaction leaves you smiling. I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone seeking a perfect getaway. It’s more than just a stay, it’s a memory you’ll cherish. The only thing I didn’t like about my entire experience was that my stay felt far too short. I truly wished I had booked more days to soak in the beauty, comfort, and peaceful atmosphere of this resort. Every moment was so enjoyable that leaving felt almost impossible—I could have happily stayed much longer.
- sameer (10/5): - Zacs Valley Resort & Wellness Retreat delivers a calm, nature-immersed escape made even better by the newly improved approach roads. Arrival feels smoother, and the valley setting is pristine and quiet. The wellness centre stands out for thoughtful Ayurvedic therapies, courteous therapists, and serene treatment spaces that encourage relaxation. Rooms are spacious, spotless, and cozy, with beautiful views and reliable hot water. Staff members are warm, proactive, and quick to help with anything. Food is flavorful, fresh, and consistent across meals; breakfast is generous and dinner specials are satisfying. Overall, a restorative stay that balances comfort, service, and authentic wellness.
- Rs (10/5): I recently spent two nights at Zac’s Valley, and the experience was thoroughly refreshing. The place is a perfect choice - Everything Nothing such
- RAJASEKAR (7/5): - It was very quiet ,natural,friendly Roads could have been better..beds and bedsheets should have been properly cleaned..bed s very small for my family though I mentioned the number of family members
- Kabithvajann (1/5): -
- Gideon Joshva (8/5): -
- Rinto (4/5): -
- Prince Prasad Raju (8/5): -
- Mohan (5/5): -
- Sivaraj (10/5): - One of my best stays. Me and My family loved the property so much. The cottage 1001(steam view cottage) was best in privacy and large lawn around cottage to play, walk, roam around, seperate outdoor sitout, seperate big camp fire area. Only 1 drawback was driving my small hatchback car, 6 km road we have to drive kind of off road. Many places we have to drive carefully, that's it. My i10 made it without issue but initially I got it in the car bottom, in return, i tackled it carefully, so issues overall. Jeep Safari arranged by zacs valley was very much worth it. Staffs were very friendly.
- Akshay (7/5): Good - Location was really good. Food was not good. Lot of insects
- Sreenath (10/5): Great Stay with Excellent Food & Clean Accommodation - I had a wonderful stay here! The food was delicious, and the houses were very clean with the added convenience of a private parking space. The campfire experience was nice (extra pay)well-maintained, and the lawn added to the relaxing ambiance. Overall, it’s an excellent place for a holiday, and I highly recommend it for a peaceful getaway. However, safari, it might not meet expectations as there isn’t much to see. The waterfall was also a bit disappointing. Apart from that, everything was fantastic!
- Reddy (8/5): Very good - The place was very good and I would recommend choosing this. But, it's far away from the centre of Kodaikanal. Office roading and waterfalls were excellent where we enjoyed at peaks. We ordered dinner @4PM. The person in incharge said confirmed initially but at 9 PM when enquired about food they said there's no order. Same the case with camp fire.
- Sreekumar (10/5): Exceptional - The stay and food was awesome. The journey towards location is quite adventurous. The staffs are very friendly. Overall a best place to relax with friends and family Activity areas aren't used. They can be more utilised more efficiently
- Akarsh (4/5): Disappointing -
- Praveen (9/5): Great Places but comes with the Great challenge of reaching the place - The Place is so amazing, Very calm and serene. Great place to spend time with your family at your own privacy. Only difficulty is Reaching the place, But then as they say hard roads leads to beautiful destination.
- Haim (5/5): I really, really recommend not going near this place!! The location is bad, half an hour drive on an uncomfortable road - The nature around is very beautiful. The cabin is beautiful from the outside.
- Sorcar (10/5): Our stay was tranquil and peaceful. - The location. The friendliness of staff. The natural beauty. The style of the cottages. The food, especially the shrimp Paal Konju .. it is so fantastic that we ordered it everyday. Literally. The cleanliness and overall maintenance of the cottages could be even better. The bathroom isn’t the very well maintained, it’s not dirty but it could be better especially for the tariff. There were bugs, spiders, which we understand is something one needs to anticipate in a natural location like this. But I think something can be done about this.
- Savariraj (6/5): Not value for money. - Forest type resorts 1. 5kms road path to resort stress tests your car suspension and tires. 2. Given quilt was very dirty and found only the next day, so couldn't ask for replacement. 3. For the premium cost, door service shouldn't be chargeable. 4. The breakfast doesn't match the cost paid at all. Very bare minimum was provided. Buffet is no value for money. 5. The TV is not a smart TV . Total disappointment for kids.
- Dhakla (9/5): Superb - Staff is really good. Place is clean and calm. Food is decent. The connectivity to the city is a hassle due to poor roads.
- Priya (4/5): Not worth the price they charge. for this price it is common to expect seamless service and not so many follow ups If - For a 52,000rs for 2 nights I got 1. Good quality food overall 2. breakfast was decent 3. campfire set up was good 4. kind staffs 5. ambience is good Improvement feedback: 1. Sofas- torn and not in good condition 2. Kettle- half the time not working. And replaced twice 3. room service calls- waiting of atleast 40mins per request such as bring extra cups, bring tea. 4. Food order process wasn’t smooth- portion, pieces per order wasn’t made clear at time of order. No standard procedure to follow/expect as customer 5. Made atleast 20 calls over two days to ensure coordination of food delivery, camp fire, water, cutlery etc - this clearly explained less training and coordination between the Managemnt and staff 6. I was asked to move the car to another spot which I found not fair in comparison to other patrons.
- Pradeep (7/5): Overall good stay - Food was good, overall property ambience was great The access road was quite rugged and proved to be a very difficult 5kms drive. The luxury stream view was average.
- Vijayan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Priyedarshi (10/5): Isolated and yet next to a small village a unique experience indeed - Very unique place and we loved the independent cottages with big rooms and the backside balcony was superb! The approach road could be better!
- V (10/5): Great place to visit with family - Amazing place to visit with family To reach the resort the roads are very bad
- Kumar (9/5): We came with no expectations and found that 2 nights stay wasn't enough.. - Good tasty breakfast with choices enough to fill you up for the rest of the days activities It will be good to have a mini water dispenser in the cottage so we don't keep calling the housekeeping every now and then.😁
- Arpit (10/5): A Memorable Stay at Zacs Valley Resort for Our Anniversary - My wife and I chose Zacs Valley Resort to celebrate our third wedding anniversary, and it turned out to be the perfect choice! From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the serene and picturesque surroundings. The lush greenery and tranquil atmosphere instantly transported us to a world of peace and relaxation. The rooms were cozy, clean, and thoughtfully designed, making our stay incredibly comfortable. The view from our room was breathtaking, and waking up to the sounds of nature was a delight we will always cherish. The resort staff were exceptional—warm, friendly, and always ready to assist with a smile. They even went the extra mile to make our anniversary special with a beautifully arranged dinner, which truly touched our hearts. The activities organized at the resort, including the campfire under the stars, added to the charm of our experience. We also loved the short nature walks nearby, where we could connect with the beautiful environment around us. If you’re looking for a serene escape amidst nature with top-notch hospitality, Zacs Valley Resort is the place to be. We left with our hearts full and memories that we’ll treasure forever. We can’t wait to come back again!
- Dasan (6/5): Good.. - I loved the ambience, the place.. I loved the room , the facilities, especially the bed n the bath facilities.. along with the fire place. I did not like the food that was served on 30th nite at the hotel.. The rice was not cooked, the ghee was too much..
- Ayushi (10/5): - Zacs Valley Resorts in Kodaikanal exceeded my expectations! The pristine location and lush landscapes created a peaceful retreat. The hospitality from the staff was outstanding, and the amenities were top-notch. A perfect escape for anyone looking to relax and rejuvenate. Highly recommended!
- Anupam (3/5): Poor - Location There were lizards in the room. Lizard shits we did clean from the bed The road to resort is pathetic (~6 km)… it will definitely damage your car suspension.
- Vaishnavi (10/5): - I had an amazing stay at the ZACS Valley Resort! The staff was friendly and attentive, the room was cozy and clean with stunning views and an amazing location. The breakfast was delicious. Overall, it was a relaxing and rejuvenating getaway. Highly recommend!
- Rajendran (9/5): Superb -
- Vishakha (10/5): - The ambiance of the place is simply breathtaking, with serene beauty that captures your attention from the moment you arrive. The staff is exceptionally well-trained, going above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience. Their kindness and professionalism made us feel at home, setting the tone for a truly memorable stay.
- Joseph (9/5): Superb -
- Venkatesan (9/5): Really Good! Would like to visit again! - Excellent Location with well-equipped amenities. Staff were quite helpful and nice. The double-bedroom cottage was really spacious and we really enjoyed a lot. Camp-fire option is a good touch(Had to pay extra) and worth it. The road to the resort was bad. Was literally an off-roading experience when we went there. Jeep safari was not great, but was an add-on to our stay there.
- Sathiah (4/5): My opinion is it is not suitable for family.it is only for couples,Friends without going anywhere enjoy one place with f - I like a food and service I didn’t like location and Road is very waist also it is deeply down from center Kodaikanal alomost 19km away from Kodaikanal.. it is not easy to come outside to see side seeing particular you go with children’s.
- John (8/5): Very good - Location Roads
- Paari (9/5): Superb -

- Palaniappan (9/5): But for the approach road everything about the property is fine. - The property is beautifully located with hills and vegetation around. The food was made to order and tasty. The staff were courteous. Our car had a tyre issue and the staff helped out fix it. Out of 6km road to property from Palani Ghat road, 3kms were full of gravel. Need to drive very slow and this stretch can take around 35 mins.
- Muhammad (9/5): Superb -
- Sukumar (9/5): Superb - Resort Atmosphere is amazing. Feel like staying in depth forest with comfort zone. Rooms are unexpected and neat. Foods are fentastic taste and hygienically as specially they served with love. All the staffs behaved as a relative its more than hospitality. Totally its worth and memorable moment which I stayed with my family in ZACS valley. I would not say not like. But the route and road is damaged. Hence its slightly difficult to reach resorts.
- Sathiyamoorthy (8/5): Little expensive and need to improve the entertainment (like games,campfire etc..)things - * Ambiance inside the property is too good. * Complementary breakfast is Tasty and good. * Travel to resort road is not good * Swimming Pool not having warm water and maintenance of the pool little need to improve * Partial games are not organised and props look like old and damaged * Additional charges of campfire and pool gaming
- Ravi (8/5): The new manager, Mr. Shamir makes the stay comfortable and worthwhile - Good place to spend a day or two
- Bharadwaj (10/5): Exceptional -

- Suresh (6/5): Pleasant -
- Alka (8/5): Very good - Location was a little to reach because of the road was rickety. Food was exceptional. As it's an eco friendly space in a forest area you can except small bugs flying around so not infant friendly.
- Joby (7/5): If you are not a food, relaxing place. - Cool calm location, away from all city. Staff is so friendly and trying hard. Chef / food need to improve a lot. Road to the property. One need a 4x4 to get there. 6 kms of very bad road.

- Venkatesh (9/5): Superb - Food is really tasty and good.. Off-road access to reach resort
- Praneeth (8/5): Good for one time stay - Location was serene and the place is thoughtfully constructed Food is off and that too for the prices they charge is no where close to a resort’s level. Also, staff makes promise when it comes to a room change and that will not be fulfilled citing not so true reasons.
- Dr (9/5): Superb - The cottage food service everything was very good The road to the resort was horrible It took hours to cover a stretch of 7kms
- Siji (3/5): Poor -

- Krishna (10/5): Exceptional - Superbb
- Keyur (1/5): It was a bad experience that could have been avoided. Delayed food service, unsafe parking areas, bad access roads. - The location of the resort is in the middle of the forest. The access road to the propriety is very bad. If you planning to go there by your vehicle or with family please avoid. The staff is ill equipped to serve food. It took us almost two hours to get our dinner at the restaurant and there is no where else to go as it is in middle of forest and the access lanes are small. Car parking is difficult as instead of winding road in the hills they have a straight up the hill kind of road and it’s difficult to park or to go up or come down. It could be dangerous as well at few points. The monkeys in the forest come and eat from the plates that some guests kept outside and you would be served in those plates so all dependent on the cleaning of the plates by the staff.
- Shanmugam (9/5): Awesome trip.... - nice one,,,
- Yoagandran (10/5): Fantastic. - Fantastic location and excellent property. Staffs were friendly and courteous. I strongly recommend this place than to stay inside the crowded Kodaikanal town. I liked every thing.
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely peaceful place full of birds and nature. Wonderful friendly staff who went above and beyond. Manager was great really helpful Needs to accept foreign credit cards. Be aware of 45 min on semi dirt road to get there but its worth it !!
- Kalai (8/5): Very good -
- Kishore (10/5): Exceptional -
- Baiju (6/5): It's not Kodaikanal!!!!! - The staff and their behaviour and attitude were top class. That compensated for the other negatives. 1. The location.. it's extremely far from Kodaikanal and usually everyone visits kodai for the climate. Here you don't get that. It's more of a Palani climate. Why do they market it as Kodai, that's cheating. 2. The road to the resort - opt for it only if you are an expert driver and also only if you have an SUV. It's a very dangerous road from periya malai to the resort. 3. Due to the remote location, commuting could be very risky after evening. 4. The terrain within the resort is too steep and walking around is too risky. That too , if you are after two pegs , you are gone.
- K (9/5): Superb -
- Jose (8/5): Very good -
- Tim (6/5): Disappointing to be in such a lovely situation and potentially peaceful place, ruined by the loud music. - Wonderful location with very comfortable rooms Very loud music on both nights of our stay, from adjoining rooms. Management provided large audio system to rooms for this purpose.
- Lina (3/5): Poor - The team members are very welcoming and want to make themselves available for any request. The food quality leaves much to be desired, and the bathroom does not align with the price paid.
- Aashy (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing place and worth the money. It's a peaceful place to relax. It gives a serene atmosphere. The room was very cozy with a balcony and the view from the balcony made it more beautiful. The food was also delicious and we really enjoyed it. The staff are super friendly and they are always there to help.
