Nothing. This place was perfect.

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.

Pool was little dirty since it’s in open

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

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

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.

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.

Poorly maintained - Leaking balcony, cockroach in room, dirty pool, mediocre food options, really really small property with nothing to do but watch the waterfall for 24 hours. Overpriced.
