We stayed for a night in Edakkal during our honeymoon in Wayanad. The place is breathtakingly beautiful and we enjoyed every moment of our stay. We had the ‘Chauvet’ room and the view from our balcony was marvellous. Since we visited the place when the Edakkal Caves were closed, we had no other option but to spend our time at... More

We spent 3 nights at the Edakkal Hermitage and really enjoyed our stay. The views from our room were wonderful. The food we were served was good and plentiful, and the candlelit dinner in the cave on our first night was a charming experience. The staff were great too and made us feel very welcome. We visited the caves which... More

We ate excellent food and had great service from the staff. Contrary to the Rough Guide, this place doesn't include food in the price - though this was OK,... More

We took two rooms for a weekend getaway and it was well worth it. Situated on top of a hill, there's no light barring the light of your room to spoil star-gazing- the sky's absolutely clear and there are lots of nice flat rocks outside your room to lie on. The rooms are of a standard size- one was slightly... More

The place is very nice with a wonderful view over the landscape and very good and nice service, but: the information about the costs are keeping some surprises. We called by phone to ask for the price and they tell you an amount and when you have to pay it is more because of the tax...And they don´t tell you... More
