• Family of four --＞ Husband, Wife, 2 kids with 3 year and 6 year. Charge was only for 2 Adults. • We left Bangalore at around 7.00 AM and reached Century resort at 2.00 PM • On the way we had Lunch, So did not take Lunch at resort for first day • We had booked Premium cottage which was newly constructed. So all amenities were good inside cottage. • There are only 3 water game --＞ Zipline, Kayaking and Coral ride • After taking rest, We went for water games. Staff was very kind enough to give 2 chances to my kids for Zipline • Archery and shooting was there but we dint play. • From the outside Water looks muddy but that is the case in all Resort during December to March. But you can see water is clean and not smelly when you do Kayaking and Coral ride • Then we went for Pool. No chlorine water. Pool is open from 9.00 AM to 6.00 PM • Snack was Tea/Coffee with biscuits. • My kids enjoyed rain dance. Floor was little slippery. Should be careful while dancing • Dinner taste was good. Bendi dry, Chole gravy, Chicken gravy, Fish fry and kheer were main items • We dint go for Nature walk/Bird watch • Breakfast was also good, not much variety but taste was good enough. Shavige bath, bread jam, poori, pulav and watermelon were main items • After that myself and wife left for Long rafting. Good part was staff looked after my kids as they committed while booking the stay. This was the main reason I went ahead for this resort. • Had lunch after returning. Paner gravy, Chicken gravy, Egg gravy and kheer were main items • Many cottages undergoing renovation, so you can expect some dirt at few places. • Staff strength was good and kind enough for any quires • Restaurant need some more cleanness • Overall, I would say good stay for family if you go for newly renovated cottages.

We stayed in the most expensive room the maharaja tent . The facility is below acceptable standards, room linen is old and jaded. The pool water was slightly murky. the rooms are too close to each other you could always hear your neighbours. The staff genuinely tried to help and make an effort however the facility itself is very dated and in tatters. I would not say that this facilities is value for money in fact I felts that we were over charged. 50% of rack rate is a fair value. Expect a lot of families that make noise at the facility. To make things worse they also have a local DJ who will blastout tracks in the middle of the Jungle just to make sure that you get more uncomfortable. Sleep quality ok but in all fairness there was a storm in the night so can't blame the facility The bed linen is grey and old Mattress was fantastic Toilet is below par . No toiletries provided unless a 2 rs shampoo pouch counts. Water sports were great for the kids. Staff was exceptional. For such a rubbish property the staff really is trying. Value for money : no Likely to return : no unless major repairs take place don't go. Food: ok tasting. Limited menu. Always delayed in setting up. Courteous staff. Tip: don't be fooled by the images they are probably likely 10 years old.

We stayed at resort for 3 nights. 3 families in room 104,105 & 106. Rooms are average with old AC. Washroom smell is really bad. Breakfast Buffet- Hardly any options- Idli/upma/pohe, not even dosa & eggs. No fruit juice, they give tang or rasna instead. Lunch Buffet- Average food- dal/rice/ 1 veg/ chicken curry/fried fish. Same for Lunch & Dinner for 3 days. Nothing changed in taste. For desserts they love giving kheer, which is so sweet that one can die of sugar overdose.Swimming pool was dirty, water was almost green. Rain dance has no rain coming, they have used small field irrigation nozzle for the rain, not adequate. Nobody playing the music, they just put on some you tube channel. Resort was almost full & the property has nice location. However they are just interested in minting money so everything has got a cost cutting theme from food, staff, music, rooms...everything. No refrigerators in room or in entire property, can not get Ice for drinks, all chicken items served are chicken with bone even chicken tikka and chicken chilly. Overall a very average experience. P.S- They have taken my white fluffy towel by mistake. However did not pay for it neither returned.

The location is good, however the property has not been maintained. Cleanliness and hygiene are in quite a neglected state. Rooms have broken tiles, no exhaust in bathrooms, paint work peeling off. Daily buffet menu is just average. Only thing worth appreciating is the staff, who are polite and understanding. But still a big NO for me to visit again...and would even advise others to keep your expectations quite low if u r visiting this place. Had planned a 3N stay over but cut it down to 2N. Swimming pool is not maintained with totally appearing green. Not worth the visit. Waste of money and time. Regret.

Worst food ever !!! Worst service ever !!! Not full enjoyable worst resort ever I have experienced in my life dirty swimming pool no cleaness in resort waste of money waste of time I wish I should not have visit that resort , worker’s reacting rude talks .
