Cardamom County by Xandari

Ambience was good. Food was un neceassary expensive and not so good

Food was expensive and not so great. Booking .com didnt tell this room access was a elavated place snd in the first floor. So for everything we need to climb up and down

Calm, clean and well maintained. Helpful and friendly staff. Quiet and beautiful rooms.

Restaurant menu was limited and there wasn’t many options to choose from, especially for vegetarians and vegans.

Hi, it’s a amazing stay and wonderful location

The food was simply awesome. Inhouse restaurant served amazing food.

Convenient location, good and tasty breakfast spread, very good service from all staffs, nice comfortable rooms.

Some amenities expected by default are made only upon request.

Friendly staff. Excellent location. Very pleasant and calm atmosphere. The entire experience was very smoothing.

The food couldve been better. It was a hit and miss at times. Wouldn't say it as a complaint but a little bit improvement would make it a lot better.

Beautiful hotel

They charged us in the wrong tax brackets for dining in the restaurant. However a refund was offered when I pointed it out

Beautiful property close to town and the Periyar NP gate yet very peaceful. Lovely pool area and comfortable rooms with nice outlooks.

Location, organic garden and wildlife.

Expensive buffet but we had a La carte

I liked the ambience, quietness and tranquility.

Quiet ambience

Not worth the money. Beds were not comfortable as it was two single bed combined.Arrangements for Ev charging for the guest were not done properly.

מיקום טוב נוף יפה חדרים מרווחים,חדישים ויפים

ארוחת בוקר דלה מאוד, שירות איטי

The location was ideal. The staff was courteous and accommodating. The ambiance was excellent, making it perfect for families.

Should you wish to engage in boating or other activities, advance booking is required. Providing this information beforehand would be beneficial.

The staff’s response was quick and professional and you can see they care about the wellbeing of the customers. We got to see wildlife in and around the property. The proximity of the stay is close to all amenities in that area.

The walk up to our room was hectic and if you are traveling with senior citizens, make sure you book rooms at the lower levels.

Located at good location, near to the town. Easily accessible, good ambiance. Breakfast was good with a lots of variety and taste.

Promised buffet breakfast spread, received A-La-Carte with very limited options. All vegetarian options except eegs which they told is the only non vegetarian option, However food prepared was upto the mark in terms of taste and quality to their credit

When payment for hotel was already secured through credit card, the need to pay upfront after long and tiring 3-4 drive to resort was uncalled for and felt hostile. They also insisted on 3% surcharge on payment through credit card which when I called out as unfair was cancelled.

The ambience, the food, and the staff.

Nothing to mention.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Xandari Resorts Cardamom County. The staff were incredibly friendly and always happy to help, which made the experience even more special. The resort itself is beautiful, with bungalow-style rooms and a strong eco-friendly approach — no plastic water bottles, only sterilised and tested drinking water provided, which I really appreciated. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The location is also fantastic — within walking distance to local shops and activities, and just a short distance from Periyar National Park. It’s the perfect base for exploring the area. Highly recommend this resort for anyone visiting the region!

No much food options as well as no amenities especially for kids play and all.

I liked everything about this place. Though they don't have too many varieties in buffet , the food is good!

Amazing place, beautiful with all the nature around, central location to explore the area. Super attentive and helpful staff.

My family stayed here for a night and they had a memorable stay. The property is beautiful, clean, well maintained, eco-friendly vast and so much greenery everywhere that they wished they stayed for two nights! The check-in was smooth, to the warm welcome and they didn't expect to be offered tea/coffee with evening snacks. So this little extra gesture is duly appreciated. My family also had their dinner here and loved the options and quality of food. The breakfast spread was also very good. It's close proximity to the Kumily Town, Tusker's Cafe, Massage - Definite value for money. The staffs are also very friendly here.

Nothing!

Breakfast was great, so was dinner, and so was the pool!

The gym was sorely lacking, and the wifi connected a total of 2 times for about 10 minutes total during my 3 night stay...

The staff were very friendly. The grounds were swept of leaves on the paths constantly as the pool was. The food was quite good and the manager at the restaurant went beyond to accommodate us…the massage therapist I used twice was fantastic at accommodating my issues having just come out of hospital with certain restrictions for my body. We would recomended this place highly. A number of US tour operates such as Gate1 and OAT use this hotel and so it is very good.

Nothing really…

Great location. Friendly staff.

Would need more alcohol choices

Food and location is great

Wifi connection needs to be improved.

The best part is the friendly and professional staff members. Also the property is gorgeous! We had our own bungalow and loved the privacy. Pool is big and lots of greenery on prem. Lovely stay! Also walking distance from bus depot to go into Periyar National Forest.

Well maintained, Clean, Friendly Staff, Good food, Instant Hot water in showers and tap. Very good location to use as base camp for boating, Kalari show, Elephant rehab centre and the town itself.

WiFi didn’t work as advertised. There is good 5G coverage from Jio in the area. Some cottages are quite high up in the slope. If you have breathing issues to climb stairs, ask for something closer to ground.

Excellent hotel, friendly staff, beautiful decoration. Female massage excellent

Male massage just so so, 6/10 I’d say

The rooms were really nice, clean and comfortable. The location was beautiful, and the staff was incredibly sweet.

The hospitality, the room and the facilities.

Beautiful gardens and lovely pool. Staff exceptionally helpful, food good

a lot of steps to the rooms

In breakfast Food was good and service was perfect.

Our stay was for a day so we have not noticed any short comings.

The hotel is in a great location, very close to the town and wildlife reserve. The staff were very friendly and helpful even making us a packed lunch as we had an early start when we left. The rooms were really good and it felt like you were actually sat in the forest. The food was some of the best we had on our whole trip and all the ingredients, herbs and spices are grown organically in their own garden

The hotel was great and staff super friendly. Our room was very nice and spacious, and also perfectly clean. The food in the restaurant was very good and a lot to choose from. The location is also great as everything is nearby. They went above and beyond to make us feel at home, which we did, thanks again to all staff 🙏🏻 We definitely recommend!

The one and only suggestion we can give is to find something that helps against the little bit of humidity in the room. Of course, we we're there in the raining season, so it might be better during summer.

I liked the greenery, lush & awesome. The service, organised team. Exceptional service. Ambience is superb, heavenly.

Restaurant too high up for me to climb. The cobble stone pathway, as it was not senior friendly, which didn't work for me.

Hospitality , dinning ,neatness’s of the property is exceptional .

Great location. Beautiful tropical setting. Very nice swimming pool.

The location was great, close to the park and the boating. The staff were more than helpful and the restaurant was really good

There was nothing to find fault with

The place is very beautiful with a very calm atmosphere and very well-maintained.

The food at the hotel could have been better and it was also quite expensive, as we had to pay 2000 for a bottle of water. Moreover, on the night we stayed there, there was a wedding taking place in the hotel. Unfortunately, nobody had informed us about it beforehand, so we ended up in the middle of a very noisy wedding celebration. This was particularly unfortunate as we had planned to rest that night and wake up early the next day for a hike.

- Rooms are very dated, with old furniture. Not worth the 20k per night that was charged

Beautiful hotel and close to everything in town and national park activities. Staff were lovely and helpful and food was great! Bed was very comfy

Pleasant situated resort. Room on the small side and dated, bathroom large and modern. Excellent restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Very friendly staff.

The exterior of the hotel is beautiful. The restaurant staff are very helpful and friendly.

The hotel didn’t accept credit card payment hence had to pay cash which can be difficult at times to carry such amount of cash. As soon as we reached, the staff asked for being paid for the room rent which i felt a bit annoying.
