Wayanad Kuruva Isles Jungle Resort

We had a wonderful experience at the resort. The food was delicious, the facilities were excellent, and the ambiance was truly relaxing. The staff were polite, attentive, and very accommodating, which made our stay all the more enjoyable. Overall, a great place to visit and highly recommended.”

It’s right inside the jungle just 2kms away from Kuruva island. Definitely worth staying in the middle of the jungle u can spot elephants too

Food could be better otherwise everything is good

Breakfast is good and complimentary. Dinner also served in property and descent quality. Location is bit interior if vicinity to wayanad is considered.

The staff were fabulous. We had meals prepared especially for us so we could experience the local Keralan cuisine. Even during a thunderstorm the staff we on hand almost immediately when the power went out. There were bicycles to use and the pool was refreshing. Highly recommended!

Nothing!!

A lovely stay in a beautiful countryside location. The rooms are large with lovely balconies. The pool was nice and clean. The staff spend a long time sweeping the leaves every day to make sure the property is nice. The manager Ritto worked very hard to make sure we enjoyed our stay, and showed us the local villages and took us walking to the river and organised a driving tour to the temple. A really special place. We recommend lunch in the Coffee Hut. Photos below.

Location, nature, staff friendliness

Limited food options

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

It was a really good experience for me and my family in this resort , we kinda were worried Abt this land slide at chural mala but it was really far from this place Chekadi where the resort is situated . We were taken to this mepadi camp from the resort. The staff service was excellent and we were satisfied.

The ambience over there is really good and the food is also very good. I had an incredible stay there with my family. Even though we know about the wayand issue that occurred, we were very safe, and so was the property. This property is an excellent choice for family as well as friends. While we were initially a little afraid to visit, it did not disappoint at all.

My stay at Kurva Isles was truly amazing, surrounded by lush greenery and tranquil vibes. Although rain limited our outdoor activities to just a few spots, the indoor ambiance more than made up for it with its comfort and charm. The food was exceptional, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. We also took the opportunity to visit the Meppadi camp, despite it being 40 km away, to offer assistance following the landslide. The sight there was quite distressing. But overall, a memorable stay despite the weather challenges.

The stay was amazing right in the middle of greenery. Unfortunately it was raining outside so couldn't go out much for sightseeing. Even inside our cozy room, the environment was amazing to spend a lazy day. The food was exceptional. Had amble varieties for a breakfast spread. And the quality was also good. The staff were also very friendly. Would definitely come back with fam and friends!!

Nothing much to say here! Everything was awesome.

The food was extremely good, the location was good where sound of nature and peace is experienced.The hospitality was good and beyond my expectation. I would highly recommend my friends and family to this property.

1. A Feast of Local and International Flavors The breakfast spread at resort was a delightful blend of traditional Kerala cuisine and international favorites. This ensures that every guest, regardless of their palate preferences, finds something to relish. Expect a diverse menu that includes: Kerala Specialties: Treat to authentic dishes like Puttu (steamed rice cakes), Appam (rice pancakes) with stew, Idiyappam (string hoppers), and the famous Malabar Paratha. Accompany these with a variety of chutneys, sambar, and curries. South Indian Classics: Enjoy dosas, idlis, vadas, and upma, each served with coconut chutney and tangy sambar. Continental Delights: From freshly baked croissants, muffins, and breads to cereals, yogurts, and cheeses, the continental section is equally impressive. Live Cooking Stations: Interactive stations for dosas, omelettes, and pancakes allow you to customize your meal with a variety of fillings and toppings. 2. Fresh and Organic Ingredients In Wayanad, where agriculture thrives, the resort emphasizes the use of fresh and organic ingredients sourced from local farms: Fresh Fruits and Juices: Start your day with a platter of fresh tropical fruits such as mangoes, pineapples, papayas, and bananas, or enjoy a glass of freshly squeezed juice.

Traditional Wayanad/Kerala breakfast is a delightful culinary experience - no further suggestions to improve.

- The traditional breakfast - Friendly staff - Calm atmosphere (Would be very nice if there were umbrellas outside each cottage. Aside that it was great)
