We decided on Bamboo Banks based on Trip Advisor ratings and must candidly say we are not disappointed. From Bangalore the place is about 260 kms and it took around 7 hours with breaks for snacks, tea etc. on the way. We, husband,wife and son(all adults) were put up in the brick house which was hugely spacious. The package included breakfast, lunch and dinner which were sumptuous, varied and of fantastic taste. The hospitality of all staff were remarkable. Mr. Zerasp , the owner, was the one who received us on the very first day. The manager Mr.Rafique was very amiable and provided all the necessary guidance. Later , we were even received by Ms Shahnaz( Mr. Zerasp's sister) . With Bamboo Banks as our station we visited the Mudumalai Tiger Reserve(7 kms) in the morning 6.30 am…
If you are planning to Mudumalai, then you should only stay at Bamboo Banks. The property is sprawling and one can spend good amount of time within the property while at mudumalai. If you are a birder then take long walks within the property and you can spot a great range of birds. They also have a range of activities which you can choose as per your interest (details on their website) & time at hand. Zeraspji was nice enough to introduce us to star gazing via the fantastic telescope they have. If yo are an astronomy buff then you would love the experience. All cottages are very spacious and have all amenities. Simple & Luxurious is what I would describe them as. All meals have an elaborate spread and food taste very good. The staff is amazing and Zaraspji and Shahanaz are…

Our Dec'19 visit to Bamboo Banks was our 5th yearly visit. While writing this review, my mind cannot stop but think of visiting this favorite place of mine again. I have mentioned this in my previous reviews of this place and am doing so again. What I love about this place is the friendly and helpful staff, the comfortable accommodation, the food and the basic calm and serenity of the farm. We have always visited as a family of four. Our favourite cottage is the brick house and next the stone house. This time we did have a peep into the other cottages and I must say I was impressed. any cottage you pick here is very comfortable. The stone cottage is covered with trees and gives you a feel of being in a forest. The estate is great for a morning run. The pool is always well…
