We spent five unforgettable days at Rainforest in Athirapally in February 2025, and from the moment we arrived, we knew it was a special place. The atmosphere is incredibly relaxing, and the view of the waterfalls is simply breathtaking. The rooms are spacious and airy, with thoughtful touches like handmade soap. We also really appreciated the hotel’s commitment to sustainability—no plastic bags or cutlery, and dim lighting at night to avoid disturbing wildlife. The swimming pool was another highlight. It’s kept crystal clear and cleaned every morning, and swimming with the waterfalls in the background is an experience in itself. Being surrounded by forest, we spotted sambar deer, leaf birds, wild boars, and giant squirrels—it felt like being in the heart of nature. But what truly made our stay special was the service team, especially Zakhir and Suresh, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their kindness, attentiveness, and genuine care made all the difference, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Rainforest felt like home away from home, and we can’t wait to come back.

Nothing. This place was perfect.

A very special place. Quite unique. Fantastic views. Charming, helpful staff. Good food. Great breakfasts. Gorgeous rooms, very clean and well appointed all overlooking the waterfall. Good walks all around. Lovely Spa, reasonably priced, they will give you a discount if you ask. We took a short walk down to the Tree House (they will give you a key if it is not booked). We had sundowners there, delightful! The hotel is alcohol free so Bring your own drinks. It is also plastic free - highly commendable! Highly recommend even if it is rather expensive………. But there’s nothing like it.

Nothing

What a very special place this is, we were enchanted. Had a fabulous spa treatment, watching the monkeys with their babies while having a head massage. Truly the most relaxing place I’ve stayed in. I had room 6, a standard room which was perfect, a dressing room to hide my suitcase and stuff! We had sundowners in the tree house. And the waterfall was in full flow. Lovely food, lovely staff. Yes, it’s expensive, but so worth it.

The location is simply out of the world. 100/10 for that. The staff is very good . Food was also amazing there was variety in the food. All meals are covered in the price it was all worth it. The ambience of the place is calm and relaxing. It is very well designed.

There's nothing as such to not like.

The property is in an excellent location. The rooms are spotlessly clean and the service is top notch. The food is awesome too. The staffs are courteous and they go out of the way to make the stay memorable.

Location, view, service, and food. They had cycles and board games, a swimming pool, and a fabulous ayurvedic massage facility. Special mention to the staff for their warmth and service

Everything location room cleanliness staff behaviour... exceptional

Dinner at night...you must keep some Indian and sea food at night chicken was not good at all ...must give wheat parantha or wheat roti...

The location is spot on , The ayurvedic massage offered around 2750 60 mins for two people is a steal deal.

Pool was little dirty since it’s in open

Sitting out and watching that waterfall is almost priceless (although they did manage to price it!) staff are very kind and welcoming.

The food is excellent, staff are super helpful, the guide was excellent and location views are stunning. A perfect place for a couple of days.

No faults
