Sama Farms - Kodaikanal

Very good place. Excellent host. Tasty food. Overall a wonderful experience.

We planned for a holiday trip to kodaikanal with the assistance for booking hotel. We booked for 2 days but we were in the position to vacate in the first day itself. As we went as a family we expected some basic amenities. But we felt like we were deserted there without any other family or human none other than us. A family came and immediately they cancel-led their booking for next day. It was posdible for them because they booked directly but unfortunately we booked. That place maked us feel too 1. Private and unsafe without phone tower to contact anybody not even our family. Even we didn't inform our safe reach yo our families itself. 2. Except their wifi we couldn't access our mobile network for any emergency. How can we depend their wifi only, all over the night? it's full of their control ofcourse. 3. This is the first and sure will be the last time also to find a farm/hotel or place whatever without a security. They enrolled as a tourist stay place and entertain all the earnings through your bookings. Is it safe to suggest a place even without a security for a tourist visitors? how come is this possible for you 4. They convinced as many cctv cams were there for our security. But they are also upto their control and if any medical emergency whom we have to contact without any mobile tower. Whatever happens will be find only after when it got over. Then what will be the use of cctvs there without a human security. 5. However we explained in detail to the owner over phone and he accepted finally for cancellation and refund. Then only we vacated.

Property is beautiful but there is no one on property, no owner or care taker. It took more then one hour to contact after reaching. We booked 2rooms for 3 night a month ago and still they just had only 1 room available. They don't have proper management, safety and no food facility on property. Only breakfast available that too very late around 10am. We had bad experience with this. Dont suggest this property to anyone.
