31st December Farms And Estates Munnar

The location is good, quite deep in an estate. The AWD did help in sections. The individual rooms are more accessible than the family unit which is a healthy walk away. The staff was very helpful, even providing an escort from the highway to the farm stay. Given the remoteness, they were welcoming in tending to our last minute requests. Thank you everyone.

Nothing in particular. There's nothing one can do about the access as it a public path. It should be much easier for 2WD vehicles to access during fair weather.

The entire experience was awesome. It offered great food and a peaceful atmosphere, a perfect place for a getaway.

We ran into an issue with the water heater on our first day when the water didn't get hot enough. Since it was so cold outside, it was definitely hard to manage without it.

Very off and quite

Our experience was unfortunately disappointing due to poor service and management. Communication via WhatsApp prior to arrival was dismissive and unfriendly, and we did not feel welcomed upon check-in. Due to a room mismanagement issue, we chose to cancel our remaining nights; however, the staff then attempted to overcharge us beyond the agreed rate. On a positive note, they did provide dinner on the house, though we were unable to try the breakfast due to an early departure.

Friendly staff, tasty food and serene location

"It was a truly memorable experience. I appreciate that if there was anything we didn't like, the staff was proactive in suggesting better options." They suggested good locations for tripping. Overall fundastic experience.

Amazing estate, quite secluded . good for a a group of 5 to 8.

The location is a bit far from munnar town and the Google location is not updated.

Lovely location, exceptional hospitality by Roy & Shafi.

We had the most amazing getaway, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The property itself was absolutely beautiful—serene, charming, and perfectly located. From the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to make sure everything was perfect for us. Their warmth and genuine care made the stay feel truly special. The food was another highlight. Every meal was prepared with so much love and a personal touch, and they even tried to customize dishes the way we requested. It felt like they really tried to make our stay memorable. What touched us most was the extra effort the team put into making sure we had an unforgettable time. We were super happy throughout the trip. Overall, this trip was worth every penny spent. Highly recommended for anyone looking to create meaningful memories with their loved one.

Nothing.. everything was perfect.. Wondeful staff..

The staff were exceptionally helpful and could not do enough for us. First class

The property rooms were dated, not very clean and smelt musty. They were in need of complete updating.

The resort is in the heart of the plantation and jungle creating a real unique experience with a perfect combination of nature and comfort. Shafi is a super host and a talented Chef. Along with his team he took care of all our needs. Thanks!!

Not related to the property but visitors should consider when planning a visit. There was a lot of rain during our stay which made hiking difficult, mainly due to wide spread of leaches. Also in this case the team was super helpful and provided with leaches protection socks and guided us safely through our hike.

Amazing stay. Good comfortable food. Cleanliness 9.5/10

None

Friendly staff

Excellent location, Excellent staff behaviour, Great food experience, quality amenities/ Facilities and peaceful place with great ambience ...worth the stay

Network is an issue , mostly no coverage but wifi is available...The property is accessible through Jeep only..but they give you parking in another property nearby from there they will take you through Jeep.

We loved the location, food, cleanliness, staffs, and the total ambience 👍🏻

Absolutely nothing. We were so happy 🤷🏻‍♂️

The property is extremely beautiful. With pet dogs, cats, ducks hens and a cow all sheltered with the utmost care. The property also provides safe trekking options that my 4 year old was able to do and enjoy. The food was fantastic, we were treated to Mr Shafi's 16years of culinary experience with very balanced flavors and yummy desserts. His staff adores him and take after him in providing the best hospitality. The property is 1 km off road and hence we got free jeep safaris up and down the property in a very timely manner. The room itself with the bathroom and the verandahs was so luxurious

Its quite calm and peaceful just like how we wanted to spend our honeymoon. The chef/manager Shafi makes some amazing food. The staff is so polite and friendly. The location is great as well if you are looking for something away from the hustle bustle of city. The bath tub is my favourite part. We stayed in king suite with bath tub. Would be nice to visit with a group.

Not a dislike really, car wouldn’t be able to go till property however the driver will pick you up and drop as well whenever needed till the parking. I was little afraid as it was just us who had booked the property for first 2 days.

Excellent location.excellent breakfast, great spread, wonderful taste and quality. Friendly staff. relaxing vibes. One with nature

If you're seeking silence and serenity, this is the perfect place. Nestled amidst the forest, it offers a calming escape from the chaos of daily life. The peaceful surroundings are truly rejuvenating. The food was amazing—every meal was a treat—and we were well taken care of by Shafi, Royal whose hospitality made the stay even more special. A truly memorable experience for those looking to unwind in nature.

I had a truly wonderful stay at this hotel! The food was delicious and exceeded expectations every time. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Shaffi, who went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. The rooms were clean, spacious, and very comfortable—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The entire property is surrounded by lush forest and set within a beautiful cardamom estate, which adds a unique charm and a sense of peace you rarely find elsewhere. There's plenty of open space to walk around and relax, making it an ideal spot to unwind. One of the things I appreciated most was how remote and quiet the location was—completely away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It’s a perfect place to disconnect and recharge. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene and rejuvenating escape!

It was standard fare. Nothing too great.

There was a cat caged in a bird house and huskies in cramped kennels. That was cruel on part of the owners.

Location and aesthetics were fantastic Staff and service was amazing

The uphill off road jeep drive not great for senior folks

The property is in midst of a forest and is absolutely tranquil. The location will disconnect from the outside world. Ideal for a big group or 4 couples. The staff led by Shafi is amazing. Royal is another name would like to mention. Excellent stay.

The washroom fittings could be changed. The approach to property is tricky.

My wife and I had an unforgettable stay at 31st December farms. From the off-road jeep ride to the property to the delicious food at the restaurant everything was perfect. The cottage itself was the best place we stayed on our whole trip in India. Thank you to Shafi and all the staff at 31st December farms. Will definitely say again.

Delicious food and amazing views; in my opinion, much better than the tea plantations in Munnar.

The rooms are a bit noisy, but this can be easily fixed with door thresholds and seals.

Location,Food, Hospitality management

The place is loanely and silent. The government road to the loacation is well maintained. The location as visible from the main road is good. Th ambience inside is also ok. The grass cover in the court yard of the premises is artificial and is well maintained.

I travelled with my wife expecting a warm atmosphere with privacy. But the place was too loanely with no fellow customers. We were the only people who were in the entire premises. This is amidst cardamom plantation. We were under the impression that there is a park facility for the resort which is secuire. But there is no parking yard for the property instead we had to park on the main road side (too small place to park a car) and had to travel over 2 kms to reach the property through muddy and rough rocky roads using the mahindra Jeep provided by the resort. But as the place was loanely and did not have much staff to provide support we never felt like staying there in a loanely atmosphere amidst non native staff. The linen and bed spreads were a bit aged (slightly yellowish colour) and showed aging. The bath facility seems to be idling with out much use for at least a week as it had a foul smell when opened. The bath facility had a glass roof with a view to the exterior which again raised some privacy concerns.The restaurant facility also was not active as the place did not have customers. we quit the place without staying there too long (within half an hour after checking in) sensing an insecurity in the area. The thrill of journey was spoiled due to this bad experience. The resort in charge Mr Shafi was operating from a distance and we spoke to him on quitting the place. We have paid the entire Rs. 6880/- vide google pay to the account of December 31st Farms and Resorts in advance a day back of checking in and the said amount was in vein. The restaurant did not refund any money so far.

Totally oversold on website. First night in ancillary bungalow room. Tired and no love. Second night in main bungalow, which was better. Good coffee However, friendliness of staff make up for a lot

Misleading presentation on website / booking.com. First night room terrible Dining room sad Food reasonable but no more Location way out, treacherous access road.

Our stay at 31st December was something we will cherish for a long time to come. The property and location is very special with its unique climate and cardamom and pepper farms. The food is exquisite, so fresh and well curated. The staff are very friendly and service-oriented. We felt so well looked after. We would recommend this place to anyone who wants to have an peaceful authentic experience far from all hustles and bustles of the city life. We ourselves hope to return soon.

Everything was perfect

I had a fantastic stay at this off-grid property! Shafi and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always going out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. The food was amazing—fresh, delicious, and full of local flavors. The whole experience was peaceful and relaxing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a quiet off grid escape with great hospitality!

amazing Environment, Service & food. Felt like dreamland for couple of days. Very peaceful.

The location was quite remote so its only suited for staycations, not if you want to quickly go to places around Munnar. The internet connection is also little gimmicky so wont recommend it for any remote work. Ideal if you want to detach from the real world and relax for a couple of days.

Very aesthetically appealing,Good service, Excellent food

Approach road to the property

Fantastic location, property and well stocked with all amenities and mainly the service was at its best.

The property was neat and clean. Really good ambience and all the staffs were nice.

The villa is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the staff are nice. It was a lovely stay. Thank you

This place is amazing, if you are looking for peace and quiet surrounded by gorgeous forest , this is the place. Food is super delicious, staff very attentive. As we were the only guests we got the food we wanted prepared by a 1st class chef for us. Trekking into the forest with a guide was a wonderful adventure. All in all very recommandable.

You have to be prepared to really off the beaten track. It's another 2km by 4wheel drive and you are on a cardamom farm sourrounded by lush jungle very near to the border of Tamil Nadu.

Very cool nature around the place. The listing provided us with a free hiking tour which we enjoyed. The food was tasty, though little variety.

Unfortunately the hotel is poorly managed. The staff members are polite, but not trained well to meet basic needs including poor English language. Our main contact person from the staff was 90% busy in the kitchen. The rooms were humid and cold, no stable hot water and regular electricity disruptions. We payed crazy EUR 140 per night for one of the rooms in the big house, from our travelling experience this is a rip off by x2 in terms of value. We checked out after 2 nights while the original booking was for 3 nights.

Amazing stay with very cordial staff. Great service and even amazing food. They have play area for children too. I had great time here, looking forward to coming back with a larger bunch 🥳

well designed , home feeling not like a hotel or resort yet having all amenities like a hotel like services and cleanliness .

broadband connection reliability can be looked at .

This is Kerala's best forest friendly, Luxury's boutique resort❤️

Brand-new property with cordial start and great cuisine.Spectacular place to stay .Spending time around campfire is highly recommended. Children enjoyed the Pets in the property.

Everything was good except the access road to the property.

Incredible experience at resort, i must say it was truly amazing from the movement i arrived with an impeccable service through out the stay i highly recommend this breathtaking experience
