Taj Madikeri Resort & Spa, Coorg

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Taj and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. A special mention to Sadiya, who was extremely sweet, attentive, and prompt with everything we needed - she truly made us feel cared for throughout our stay. Our drive to and from Mangalore with Mr. Rajesh was such a highlight. He shared so much about the region along the way, pointing out coffee and spice plantations and giving us great local insights that made the journey memorable. Every restaurant on the property served amazing food, and the service across the board was impeccable. We were introduced to the local Kodava dance, and the guide shared fascinating stories and cultural details that made the experience even more meaningful. A big shoutout to all the staff - from the restaurant teams to those driving us around the property in buggies. Everyone was incredibly warm, thoughtful, and attentive. Late at night, they even waited outside to make sure we got back safely, which truly says a lot about their hospitality. We loved the pottery session, which was a fun and unique experience, and the spa treatments were deeply relaxing. The pool had stunning views, and the Nishani hike was another highlight - the guide shared so many interesting facts along the way that made it both informative and enjoyable. All in all, this was a truly memorable stay, and I would highly recommend Taj to anyone looking for a perfect blend of comfort, culture, and exceptional hospitality. ✨

This property is exclusive both in its approach and the treatment it provides from the time you enter. The warm welcome is exemplary and the fact that you are made to feel special with no check in counters to que is exceptional ✨ Then comes the rooms, well they are villas, and best upgrade to the Pool Villa , like we did, central warm swimming pool under a glass canopy with a fireplace, well it feels you are in the honeymoon, you couldn't afford back then 🥂 Not to forget the avenues of outdoors,from trekking to kayaking, zip line to cycling and fun areas are cherry on the top. My final word is for the food and the grill restaurant which serves the Rann with signature breads, it'sa culinary treat you deserve 💖 Only word of caution is, you may not realise how much you're spending as the options to splurge are many 🤗 It's a holiday destination most recommended and an experience of a lifetime 👍 Wah Taj Wah !!

Simply Outstanding and the Taj Hospitality is embodied by everyone at the resort - Buggy Drivers , Housekeeping, Guest Staff ( Rebita, Ankita, Dr Vidya) , Naturalists ( Pradhan and Darshan ), Chef Raja and Team, Security personnel .We felt being at home , were pampered and enjoyed a very relaxing break . Wish we could have stayed longer .

I took time to write this review as I was very annoyed at this stay experience and thus took time for emotions to settle down and take time to forget specific names as I did not want people to get affected on individual basis. The rooms were good and pool villa size was vast. The location of property is great but definitely not worth the hype created, the vastness and terrain of property makes it difficult to manage despite some effort by staff. The diesel buggies are very inconvenient and bad smelling. The staff at reception was inattentive and caused enormous delay at checkout time as they could not sort issues with travel partner on payments despite request on day 1 ( the issue was in both sides I.e. Expedia as well as hotel) and in the end caused a lot of delay in return due to bad timing.

Keep up the good work. No complaints, rather accolades only. Taj Medaikeri comes recommended. Property is quite interesting, situated in typical rain forest on Coorg. Quite serious about taking and protecting environment.
