After the Rains - Rainforest Lodge

The property is situated at an exceptionally good location. Breathtaking views. 16 acres of property accommodates only around 10 villas which ensures that privacy is abundantly taken care of. We stayed at the best of their villas -KahWah. Clean and well maintained villa. A small hut made behind the villa to enjoy the mesmerising view of the valley and dense forest while sipping coffee was the highlight of the property. We stayed there from May 19, 2025 to May 22, 2025. Fortunately for us, it drizzled all these three days. As a result, the entire property was enveloped in thick fog. Cloud nine. The property being settled in dense forest, there are a variety of birds and butterflies to watch. There are very many number of guava, cocoa, avacado, mango and other fruit bearing trees. The swimming pool is extremely clean. The dining area is awesome and offers a beautiful view of the forest and valley. Activities like fishing, forest trail etc are worth doing. Rakesh Prabhakaran hosted us. He is friendly and takes delight in helping the guests. Cons: we found the food at best average. We coveted the local Waynad or Kerala cuisine. One or two dishes were served daily as a local dishes but we did not find them up to the mark. There is no ala carte facility nor was buffet provided. The chef decides what food the guests eat. Breakfast was repetitive. The last limb of the approach road is difficult to navigate and no properly maintained. We were told this was the lapse on part of the local authority. There is no air conditioning provided in any of the rooms or villas. We did not even find the need of one during our stay. Despite these lacunae, we would strongly recommend this property for those who want to relax and chill for a couple of days.

The resort is good with great views of mountains from all the sides and is located on a proper hillside and bit feels like forest stay. But you will come across many insects and reptiles. Since the rooms are located a bit faraway outside the lobby reception, you may see many leeches and few snakes as well. You will have to be extremely careful while walking in and around the resort. The water in the swimming pool was not clean and we could see few insects inside the water as well. The food was just average nothing too special. Overall a decent resort. The management needs to do something on too many insects and other reptiles in and around the resort.

Excellent stay in meppadi wayanad with warm staff and cool scenic jungle views. The food is very good with a wide choice of variety local cuisines. They also have some activities in the resort which are fun. Overall we had a nice stay and mr. Rakesh, arjun snd co. Were very helpful in guiding us through our entire stay. Our only discomfort happened once we left the resort in the cab booked through the resort, mr. Riyas. Took us to places which were already closed and had tie ups with costly shops where he took us for visit. My suggestion is do not book that cab service. The driver is only bring the reputation of the resort down.

We checked for nice resorts at waynad in make my trip. We booked it prior of 2 months. We waited for the day and when we reached over there the resort is veryyyy good and lovely place for a get away from the city exhausting life. The nature. And the amenities are excellent. We booked pimienta room and the view from the room is next level eye feast. The view from the bathtub will take us into trans. And also the staff were very friendly. The food served was very good with authentic kerala dine. They provided very good service overall. Overall excellent stay and we are also planning another visit in winter

The property is located in a pristine location away from the hustles and bustles.service was topnotch and very professional...food was delicious too...This resort is for those who want a calm and quite getaway...don't expect too much activities unlike the other resorts in and around...the place is for the ambience and serenity...one suggestion is some adventure activities and kids play area could also be added in the property since the area is vast and suitable for those...staffs were very friendly and humble...overall a commendable experience..

Kudos to the entire team, awesome cuisine, rakesh, arjun and vishnu made us feel at home stayed with family for five days. Serene and calm atmosphere. Just lost in nature.

Amazing location. Average food. Very good rooms. Good service (i felt they are not properly manned) overall a good stay!

The location was overall great, i loved the silence which let me to live in the fresh forest ambience. The food option was limited but the taste was good. Overall it’s a great experience to disconnect from the city and live surrounded by nature.

We really loved our stay, good service, very sweet people, food was delicious.

Nestled in the heart of the nature, our forest stay@after the rains was a dream come true. We stayed at lilikoi. View from the balcony was just awesome. Manager mr rakesh welcomed us with a welcome drink and explained about the property. Property’s location, food & services is no doubt very good. Need to maintain fish pond area thanks to manager & staff to made our stay beautiful

The stay was pleasant. Pros: the view from our room and the entire property is lush green. The food was made of local grown ingredients. Extremely courteous, well trained and helpful staff cons: bugs, there are a lot of bugs, and even reptiles crawling around in the area. Our rooms in lilikoi were about 200m away from the dining area and since all meals are served in the dining area. One has to walk long to and fro.

The stay was good. Property is located amid-st the lush green western ghats. Breakfast was better than dinner. Overall good experience.

Lovely experience, memorable stay. Overall good. Can get better. Place needs some renovation and needs overall enhancement as the location is superb, staff were good. This place has a potential to be a super boutique resort.

Never miss this property. Atleast visit once, very well maintained and friendly staff. 5/5. View from the property is beautiful. Loved it.
