Taj Madikeri Resort & Spa, Coorg

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights stay at Taj Madikeri. The tiring 9 hour travel from our home in Mumbai disappeared in seconds as soon as we entered the lobby by seeing one of the most beautiful valley & mountain view. The lobby is one of the USP of the property. We were well received by Ms. Saadiya from front office with effortless check-in.We appreciate the kind hospitality by Ms.Saadiya ,Aroopa , Rebita & others from front office. The Cottage was large & spacious with separate areas for each functionalities. The cottage had large french windows covering almost 145 degree with beautiful scenic view. The cottage was based on Coorg Architecture coupled with one of the most contemporary decor & very comfortable furniture. The property is located on the hills & a part of the beautiful rain forest. The climate also was very supportive. Our dietary requirement of Jain Food was taken utmost care by the Fern tree restaurant team. Executive Chef Raja & Sous Chef Dharani made sure that not only we were served pure Jain Food with a large spread but also ensured that the food was very tasty & customised to our taste in all our meals. Chef on his own made sure that we get to eat different cuisines on all the days & made within our dietary requirement of Jain Food. Ashish, Ricky & serving team were at our service. The motto of the team was that our wish was their command. Taj Madikery is fortunate to have such human assets which try to exceed the standards of hospitality & customer care that Taj is known for. The Food Taste, Variety & Hospitality by Fern tree Team was so good that we didn't go to any other restaurants which were part of the property.Our Special Thanks to all of them. Taj's J. Wellness Spa is also one of its kind with various kinds of Messages & Treatment. Dr. Vidhi Singh was very courteous & helpful. She explained in detail the various therapies & also gave certain insight about the property which we used to enjoy our stay. My wife's treatment was done by Therapist Priti who was very well experienced/trained & did a good job. Our housekeeping was well attended by Arun Mathew George & Team & they made sure we had a comfortable & a pleasant stay. The Bed & Toilet Linen & Toiletries were of very good quality with a very soothing aroma. We also enjoyed a rain forest walk with the man of mother nature viz. Mr.Pradhan. He was not only in love with Mother Nature but was very passionate & knowledgeable. He made sure our 2 hour walk was truly worth & enjoyable. We also enjoyed the Temperature Controlled Infinity Swimming Pool, Jacuzzi, Souna & Steam .All facilities were very well maintained & neat & clean. We also undertook a Yoga Session.We also used the activity centre which had various indoor games , Library etc. We also enjoyed a Sun Bath on the very comfortable Swing Bed Gazebo outside the outdoor swimming pool. To conclude we had a very relaxing unwinding 3 nights/4 days break in the lap of nature with excellent facilities on lodging & boarding front coupled with various other faciities

Every staff member was so cordial, the service was par excellence, facility was so well maintained and the food was exceptional. Every staff member made us feel extra special and comforted. A big Thank You for the feeling of Tajness that you all could create for us.

One of the best properties I have ever stayed in!. Fabulous team who took good care of us during the stay. The property is beautiful spread over 30 acres with another 150 acres of forest surrounding the property. The lobby is the highlight but every nook and corner of this property is well appointed. Be it the cosy rooms, the restaurants overlooking the hills, the indoor & outdoor pools as well as the Spa. Simply fabulous! The team is extremely courteous, prompt and warm to say the least. Would highly recommend this property for a peaceful family holiday.

Just when we feel that they can’t do better than the previous Taj property we visited we are proved wrong yet again . Taj defines the word hospitality to a different level. Every staff member is super efficient and always ready to help . Alert and attentive stewards Gowtham and Nilesh , perfectionist Chef Raja , the polite check in and front desk team , the smiling buggy drivers , the prompt house keeping would all score a perfect 10. Food in all restaurants was outstanding. The Dew with its Healthy options. The Grill with its candle light dinner ambience, the traditional thali .. every meal was outstanding. The Spa is a must visit .. the Guddha authentic copper bucket hot bath and scub gives nothing less than a queen feeling . The lobby has a unique charm with it’s openness and views of the valley Rooms are nice with decent views Some suggestions only for the rooms : 1. Some more light or a lamp especially near the desk . The room was extremely dim post sunset . 2. The blinds !!! They were a task to put up and down . We had to call the staff for this each time ( they came within minutes ! ) . Curtains may have been an easier option as the blinds were also dusty in parts 3. A full length or a small mirror in the room as there is only a mirror in the bathroom 4. The hair dryer looked old and outdated 5. A steam iron would be better than the regular iron provided 6. The wood work behind the bed is beautifully carved .. but impossible to clean am sure as many edges were filled with dust All in all a wonderful hotel and a must visit Superb team work Taj .. look forward to visiting again some day

Everything about the stay was impeccable. We were received very warmly at the property, the views were stunning, the room very comfortable. As is usual with Taj, the service was above and beyond expectations. Gloria was excellent as were the chefs at Dew and the naturalist who took us on our walks. Could not have asked for a better holiday. Thank you
