We had the opportunity to stay at Villa Retreat in Kodai between 1st and 5th May 2012.

The service by Javed & his team was excellent and prompt. The quality of food served at Villa Retreat was very good and the food was very tasty. The view from the hotel room and lawn was very good. The interiors inside the room was very good.

We stayed at the Villa Retreat for 5 days. We were a group of 8 members. Never had any complaints. It has a home-like setting and made us feel very much at home. They helped us out with our sightseeing tours the moment we asked them. We were also given insight into the spots less travelled by other tourists and... More

The rooms are cozy but at night the temperatures fall to about 6 or 7 degrees. Its beautiful view in the morning. At night the lights of the lower cities... More
