Nature Zone Jungle Resort

“Mixed feelings, but glad we went there”

Despite its remote location, the place is fantastic. I enjoyed the morning trek and took a solo 7 km hike nearby. The garden was well maintained and added to the beauty. Surrounded by wildlife, the property feels like three distinct zones—rainforest, grassy meadows, and rippled tea hedges—all packed into a small area. The comfort level was high for such isolation: hot shower, electricity, kettle, and a large, comfortable bed. Even with high humidity, the room stayed clean and we didn’t encounter insects or vermin. I did book hastily and didn’t realize arrival had to be by 6:00 PM; I had to skip a day because I couldn’t get there on time and felt uneasy about safety. Driving to Munnar from a beach town in Kerala is long, and the ascent feels extreme—probably not suitable for families with kids. Watch out for leeches and ticks! Sometimes the staff misunderstood me, creating a language barrier. The local food is probably the best available in such a remote area, but we didn’t enjoy it much.

Location is at top of munnar .misty with great view. Room quality is not top notch. But they were clean and water was good.we can't expect Xtra clean city rooms in the middle of jungle. Common sitting area stools etc the woods were partially termite eaten

“Has potential, but there were issues”

The scenery was beautiful, the property felt immersed in nature, and the views were stunning. We even spotted an elephant on our hike. The food options for lunch and dinner were plentiful and tasty, and breakfast was also very good. The bed was reasonably comfortable, and the tent was spacious, though a bit dark and exposed if you open the curtains. However, several issues made the stay unpleasant. First, the booking description swapped the tent and tree house, so we ended up with the wrong accommodation. Hot water in the shower stopped working suddenly with no explanation, and no one was at reception late at night to give instructions, so we couldn't fix it. An animal—reported as a squirrel, though another review mentioned a rat—got into the tent through the bathroom and woke us up multiple times by moving objects. This shouldn’t happen in a “premium” tent, and we would have appreciated being warned about it. We arrived during monsoon season, so the weather was consistently cloudy, foggy, and rainy. We were told we could do guided hikes if the weather was acceptable. A one‑hour afternoon hike and a two‑hour 7 am hike were offered. We did the afternoon hike, but it was cut short by rain. We showed up at 7 am for the morning hike, but were told we couldn’t go because the weather was bad (foggy, not raining). By 9 am, when the weather cleared, we asked if we could still hike, but were told “the walk was at 7, it’s finished, try tomorrow” and offered a 5‑minute walk behind the reception instead. We were the only guests interested, so the rigidity and lack of a proper alternative was surprising, especially since enjoying the surroundings is the main appeal. Wifi didn’t work at all during our stay.

“Simply awesome!”

Everything about the place—ambience, staff, and food—was great. Totally worth it. No complaints.
