Average Stay
We took this property as it was supposed to be a luxury resort secluded, private and set amongst nature with great views. However, when we reached there we realised, the entire property is surrounded by a busy road. Most rooms dont have a good view and wr had to request two room viewings after our first night to find a decent room, as on check on we were given a room that was very old, had a boxed in view of overgrown shrubs, and extremely noisy from the road outside it. The new room had its own issue, with lawn mowing work being done constantly through our stay disturbing our sleep and we had to constantly request them to stop it. There is a big monkey problem on the property, you cant really be carefree in your room with an open window or balcony. There was a corporate conference going on for the two days we were there, the people from that conference occupied all the games area, and we weren’t able to enjoy it at app. Breakfast spread isn’t that great, and food we ordered was average. Staff are willing to listen and help but unable to do anything that properly addresses issues. For 20,000 per night, this was a horrible no value for money choice. I al not visiting again.

My Stay at Tamara
An Unforgettable Experience at The Tamara Kodai – A Perfect Escape into Luxury and Nature My recent stay at The Tamara Kodai was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in the warm hospitality, serene beauty, and luxurious comfort that define this remarkable resort. The property itself is stunning – nestled in the misty hills of Kodaikanal, surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking views. The heritage charm of the restored 19th-century structure blends beautifully with modern amenities, offering a unique blend of history and luxury. Every corner of the resort is thoughtfully designed, and the attention to detail is commendable. Our suite was spacious, immaculately maintained, and elegantly furnished. The heated floors in the bathroom, plush bedding, and private balcony with panoramic views made our stay incredibly comfortable. Waking up to the sounds of birds and the scent of fresh mountain air was truly rejuvenating. The staff deserves a special mention – they were attentive, courteous, and always ready to go the extra mile to ensure our experience was flawless. From seamless check-in to personalized services, every interaction was pleasant and professional. The food at La Providence was exceptional. Each meal was a culinary delight, offering a variety of options that catered to both local flavors and international tastes. The breakfast buffet was generous and featured fresh, high-quality ingredients. The resort also offers a range of curated experiences – from nature walks and bonfire evenings to indoor activities and spa treatments. Whether you’re looking to relax, explore, or indulge, there’s something for everyone. In summary, The Tamara Kodai offers a perfect blend of luxury, tranquility, and hospitality. It’s more than just a place to stay – it’s a place to create memories. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kodaikanal. Can’t wait to return!

Kodaikanal escape!
The Tamara , kodai was definitely a fun experience. It was on my bucket list for a really long time and finally I was able to execute it for my wedding anniversary. The hospitality and service was top notch. Lovely interiors and spacious rooms. Very amicable staff who were warm throughout our stay...the only suggestion is the food spread should be improved and more non vegetarian options can be added and they should stick to their activities daily which is scheduled for the day. Special mention to Josekutti , Arjun ( housekeeping) , nosiya ( spa) , solomon , Vishnu das ! They were very helpful and glad we met them.

Good Stay
The resort was definitely very nice & comfortable but nothing different in its class. The staff were very friendly. Mr. Ajay was the relationship manager & he was extremely courteous & helpful. Food was good. Mr. Selva was the chef for South Indian cuisine & his biriyani was impressive. There were very few, subtle things that could have been better but the overall experience was a perfect balance.
