Kanavu Valley View Resort offers a stay with undeniably good room ambience and impressive views. However, while the rooms themselves are pleasant, the amenities feel somewhat limited, likely due to the property's smaller size. Our experience with the service and food was average, and it seemed the staff was stretched thin. The restaurant's capacity also appears to be an issue, as it struggled to accommodate all guests.
We also noted that the resort is currently constructing a new restaurant space in an area that Google Images suggests was previously a lawn or kids' play area. Unfortunately, the ongoing construction work did impact the peacefulness of our stay due to noise.
On a positive note, the resort's location does offer the unique experience of being near the toy train track and tunnel. While these are interesting to witness, it's worth noting that the path to access the train track is somewhat dangerous and not maintained by the resort.
Overall, Kanavu Valley View Resort provides good rooms, ambience, and views. However, improvements are needed in service and food quality, and increasing the staff would likely enhance the guest experience. It's also important to be aware that the property is situated approximately 3 km away from Ooty town.
