Deshadan Mountain Resort -The Highest Resort in Munnar

nice ambience little down on room interior rework but amazing and nice overall ........... ........

This is a hidden gem and I was lucky to have found it. A last minute booking made after they had a cancellation and hence the property popped up on my late search for a hotel / resort at Munnar. Called up the reception from London and Jilju very efficiently handled my booking. I was initially a bit apprehensive as many times, the photos on the websites do not reflect the reality. However, I was pleasantly surprised and in fact, some of the photos do not do justice to the beauty of this resort. The room was very big, well equipped, and with a great, unrestricted view of the mountains. The staff were all super helpful. Room service was very prompt. The rooms were cleaned very well, fresh towels provided everyday, and amenities well stocked. Their games room is not advertised well, but it is very well stocked with multiple carrom boards, chess boards, a TT table, fussball, etc. The restaurant is reasonably priced. Don't be afraid to seek Chef Jij and tell him your requirements. I bumped into him on the first night and while chatting, told him what I fancied eating. He ensured the food was prepared as per what I had mentioned to him. The staff at the restaurant were very prompt and courteous. Breakfast was good with a mix of local and other Indian dishes. It may not seem like a vast spread, but I am happy with it. Anyways, with vast spreads, you don't eat more than 4-5 items as it is. Plus, with vast spreads, the food is the same everyday. The resort is at the top of the mountain and is spread over a large area. They also arrange a trek to the summit, which is about 2.5 hours round trip and moderately difficult. All in all, highly recommend the resort and I am glad I found it accidentally. In terms of improvements, just one point: most of the TV channels are not available. It may help to have more TV channels made available for guests.

The resort is really good, we went through our self drive car the last 1.5 kms of the ride are a bit uphill that's the toughest part. The people are helpful we had to check out early they also provided us with breakfast kits which was helpful. Has a game area and view point. They also provide a trek although we didn't went for it but it would have been good. Overall a good stay :)
