The room was great and well maintained. The staff were helpful and professional.

The location is a bit far about 6 km from city. But the view from the room is worth it.

The interiors

Location was little far

View from the room and cleanliness.

No easy parking and the property close to the road

Kind people and very friendly.

No place for Driver to stay. My driver had to stay at our car.

Great location, away from the city crowd, serene view.

Nothing.

Location, food, Stay and staff is helpful. For the price i was excepting heater in room.

The view

Parking facilities

The location is pretty scenic, peaceful and calm. Quite a lot of attractions within an hour of drive

It's slightly isolated, not very close to quite a lot of restaurants or any general stores though

Vanam Holidays ligt op een geweldige locatie. Het uitzicht is overweldigend. Zelden zo’n mooi uitzicht vanuit een homestay gezien. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk en de maaltijden zijn heerlijk. Echt een aanrader.

Niets

Hébergement dans un lieu avec une vue magnifique et un personnel à l'écoute.

Nous n’avons pas eu d’eau chaude sur une nuit (il faisait 10C) Restaurant très froid sans fenêtre

Everything is neat and tidy

Parking still to be improved

This place was amazing. The location is great, the staff are warm and very helpful. The rooms are well maintained and hygenic. The view from the balcony is one of the best i had experienced for this price. They have good food too, the food is home style but very tasty. I will definitely choose this property over others if i am travelling back to ooty.

Balcony view was superb. Staff also good.

Het uitzicht, de kamer op de hoogste verdieping had een beter panorama-uitzicht. Het eten was grandioos lekker.

Het was een hele klim om met de koffers op de kamer te komen via het trappenhuis. Verwarming of een andere warmtebron zou fijn zijn geweest.

good

Room was clean and neat. Very comfortable and affordable place. View from the room was also nice.

Vaanam Holidays in Ooty was a serene and memorable stay nestled in the hills. Surrounded by lush greenery and misty views, it felt like living inside a painting. The mornings were peaceful, the air crisp, and the entire setting perfect for relaxation or reflection. The rooms were clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up for comfort. A special mention must go to their in-house cook, who prepared absolutely delicious meals. Whether it was a simple breakfast or a hearty dinner, every dish had a touch of homely warmth and local flavor that made dining a joy. The staff were courteous, helpful, and genuinely committed to ensuring guests had a pleasant stay. Whether you're a couple, family, or solo traveller, Vaanam Holidays is an excellent choice if you're looking to slow down and soak in the charm of Ooty. Highly recommended for those who value comfort, good food, and genuine hospitality in a beautiful natural setting.

One notable thing during our stay was the occasional power cuts, which are quite common in hill stations. However, the team at Vaanam handled it well—essential items like lights, Wi-Fi were backed by additional power supply, so we were never really inconvenienced.

Location was pleasant, staff was very good, service provided was satisfactory. Room size was decent. They can add couple of more items in the breakfast menu, although it was okay.

Wi-Fi connectivity was very bad. The Wi-Fi connection was not at all reaching the rooms and was working only in the dining area. They need to have a strong Wi-Fi connectivity which is a must for visitors.

Food was very good

The room is good

Very good rooms, spacious and clean. Very good, polite and helpful staff.

Location and breakfast

Floor mats are dirty..

Best ever stay i have ever been. Best view, Best chefs, Best care taker

I liked Everything

I stayed in a super deluxe suite with a beautiful view of mountains and Greenery. It had 2 balconies both having breathtaking view. Peaceful and calm place away from Ooty city. Staff was attentive and helping Breakfast was excellent, idli, medhu wada and dosa were delicious.

Though I liked rasam rice, dal tadka, french fries etc. But I didn't like the Chinese food items I ordered.Overall it was excellent experience

Location is great with nice views of the Nilgiris. Also peaceful and quiet. Good breakfast.

Rooms could have been cleaner, especially the floor and bathroom areas.

Nice view, worth for money

Nice Location! It was easy to locate and you get nice views from the balcony

Room was not spacious. We could barely walk with all the furniture inside. Toilet seat was kept too close to the side wall. We could not sit straight on the Seat as there was no space on the right side. Bathroom water pressure was very low we could not use the Shower much. The wash basin should have been little bigger.

Vanam Holidays offers panoramic valley views from spacious, well appointed rooms with balconies. The rooms have western style ensuite with toiletries. The hotel is situated a short distance outside of Ooty and offers sweeping views of the Kethi Valley and surrounding mountains. The rooms provide direct views of tea plantations and garden farms. The location is great for walking with a new sealed road that winds itself up into rich farming lands inclusive of tea, mushrooms and other crops and the opportunity to see a diverse range of birds. Without a doubt the prize of Vanam is the exceptional service provided by hotel staff who go above and beyond to ensure you have a memorable stay. The food - is fresh, tasty and gloriously cooked in a loving home style way - by the most caring ladies you will ever meet. We stayed extra nights just to enjoy the delicious foods from our room and to savour the views from our room. Special mention to Udaykumar, Ambika Amma, Jaya, Bipin and Jaya who truely make Vanam an amazing stay - look forward to our return visit!!

It was a perfect stay at Ooty. We liked everything at this place. Starting with Udaykumar sir , the manager who was such a humble and polite person and responding and confirming on all the stay queries. The property is located on a fabulous location, away from the city crowd and hustle bustle. The view from the room is divine and blissful. Beautiful mornings and evenings with plenty of birds chirping around. Nice balcony to sit and have coffee or tea and relax in tranquillity. The room was a spacious and comfortable one with all amenities available with kettle,, television with several channels , sitting place , wardrobe , comfortable mattress and pillows , nice ambience to the room , spacious washroom with hot water available always. Clean and crisp towels. The wifi worked terrific and very strong all the time. The Food service was absolutely homely and awesome. Every dish served at complimentary breakfast , lunch and dinner was a delight and we relished everything served. More importantly they serve healthy quantity and with high quality. Be it the owners mother Ambika Amma , the senior attendant lady Jaya , the couple Bipin and Jaya and of course Udaykumar sir are human gems and made our stay that much more pleasant , happy and a memorable one. This place is perfect if you seek nature , tranquillity , great hospitality , culinary delight and quality peace and happiness , all at very reasonable pricing, trust me. I wish the entire team and owners the very best always and seems they are expanding a bit nearby and I will recommend VANAM HOLIDAYS to every traveller visiting Ooty who prefer to stay a bit away from town centre , where it could be too noisy , dusty and crowded. Good Luck to one and All.

I will have to think too long and hard as I really am unable to find fault with our stay. So honestly nothing that we dint like.

Location of the property is simply amazing, Rooms are well decorated with clean bathrooms,,Staff was very attentive for every small request, Breakfast, food was really good and yum - Thank you so much for hosting us

Very helpful staff, delicious Indian breakfasts, amazing view.

Its on a gorgeous hillside 20 mins out of Ooty - which is perfect to avoid the traffic and General busy-ness of Ooty. But it means there are very few food options nearby. Great food available from the guesthouse though.

Great location , everything was very clean. Very helpful staff

Nothing. Everything was perfect

Everything, the staff was good, the room was very good, the view from the room was breathtaking, the food was good, and overall the stay was good, highly recommend this place if you want to relax

The only drawback is they do not have provision for tea or coffee in the room, if you are a early riser you have to wait till the kitchen opens

We had a beautiful spacious room with an astonishing view of the mountains and tea fields which we enjoyed from our balcony. The room was clean and very comfortable. The kitchen staff made some incredibly delicious meals!

Everything is good Location, food, clean, worth for money. Access for attractions. From city centre 7km distance makes peaceful stay.

Nothing to say- limited rooms books asap.

Food was like home cooked.

Size of room was bit less.

Very good staff. Clean rooms. Interior and lighting of the room was very attractive.

Costly menu. I ordered chicken pakoda they gave only maida pakoda.. chicken was not found in the dish.

The location was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

I think the price was high when compared to the room size.

Amazing view from this place. Highly recommend

Rooms are clean and tidy, staff is helpful, location provides a great view, food is excellent, home cooked food with great taste. Overall it is great 👍

Nothing to mention as such, just not recommended for old people & physically challenged people who can't climb stairs.

Hospitality

Great location, friendly staff..

No heating facility..

I just wanted to say thanks for an amazing stay! Your food was incredible, staff were super friendly, and accommodation was comfy. Your chef's dishes were mouth-watering, and service was top-notch. Special thanks to your team for making me feel at home.

Location, room and the courteousness of the staff and decent food

Floors in the room were sticky and a lot of houseflies in the dining area

Entry into room not suitable, it should be easy to reach or provide lift facility, second thought climate is cool there must be ceiling fan provision.

Entry into room by stair case.

Cleanliness, amazing view, equipped with all amenities. Also the staff was so supportive that they provided breakfast early at 7:30 am on our request because we had to checkout early. Must visit place

It was all good

The room was very comfy and well equipped, great view and spacious balcony with chairs. Good breakfast.

Staff needs some training.

Spectacular location, good service, courteous staff

Parking is limited to 2 cars and hence you might end up for road side parking.

This place is a little away from the city and the noise. The food was good. The staff were polite and very helpful with all the requests. Overall an excellent place for vacation.

The view is breathtaking from the room. Nice cozy place away from the bustle of the Ooty city. Also the site has good bunch of guys who will help you to feel like home and be comfortable. They have a fully functional kitchen where you can order food from the list and its delicious and home style.

The staff were very friendly. It’s value for money. The outside valley view was exceptionally beautiful .
