Everything you touch or see can be a lizard poop. It's everywhere. False ceiling of cottages are full of living and dead lizards. Rooms is main building are better but they are small and their ceiling is very low that might feel clostrophobic. Cottage rooms are very dark and hardy any light enters there due to their surroundings. People who can't see a glimpse of green and live in concrete world might like this place but not someone who lived their fair share of life in greenery. No Google reviews stands true. I booked this resort knowing that it is situated 8 km away from Bolpur after going through google reviews but I regretted it. Please read TripAdvisor reviews. Those were genuinely mentioned. Cleanliness rating is big zero here. No hygiene is maintained whatsoever. You don't have anything to do after 6 pm. This resort is dead at night. No music playing even during puja holidays. No festive lighting. Even the lighting during night time are very less. Forget about going out during this time as there are plenty of insects and mosquito swarming this place. You need to turn off the light of bathroom otherwise there will be insect party there. There were one cook and two service boys. They are trying their best to accommodate all guests but even they are humans. Their behavior was very cordial. Full respect for them. Food quality was average. Hotel beleieves it's the best but actually it's not. Food is average not bad. Some items are good and some are not good. There is lack of consistency in food preparation. Fish finger made on first evening was good but on the next evening it was raw inside. No intercom. You need to. Manually dial phone to place food orders. Room service was slow when there are 2-3 families occupied. The worst thing about this place is the laid back attitude by the manager and probably by the owner. They build this property long ago but hardly maintaining it. No proper cleaning during stays. If you go there with buch of people, you may not find it problematic but please don't go there as couples. A big property with good concept is being ruined.

The property is located 10 km away from the vishwabharati campus, away from the hustle and bustle. The property allows you to get a feel of the village life, rustic and full of old school charm. The gardens add to the charm of the property. We had booked a duplex mud house perfect for a family of 4 to 5 people. We had luchi for breakfast, it was complimentary. Dinner was at the hotel, the food was tasty and comforting. The staff is very well oriented. Especially the manager and a boy called chanchal. We stayed for 2 nights and our stay was splendid.

The electrical connections were not functioning. TV recharge took 6hrs and 10 follow ups. No toiletries provided I had visited this resort in Jan21 but this tike found it has degraded like anything Mouse running through the roofs of cottage No attendants present in restaurant aftet confirming food is ready What was served as karai chicken was some shreds of chicken in white liquid Really disappointed with over all house keep service and food May not visit again

Lovely property amid-st nature. Well maintained, courteous staff, good food. Great place to unwind and relax.

Nice, the property is in an isolated olplace, among-st greenery and quite near to all landmark palaces in shantinekatan. Well behaved staff, however, they need some grooming. Coordination among-st staff desires improvement
