Amritara Riverside Camp, Thattekad

The property is located in a beautiful setting, and the drive to reach it is especially stunning during the monsoon season. I had booked a riverfront room, but unfortunately the view was largely blocked by trees, which was a bit disappointing. The food service was below expectations, and overall the property does not feel like a 3-star stay. Maintenance appears to be lacking, and there was no hot water available during my stay. This place has great potential to be an excellent destination because of its location and natural surroundings. However, better upkeep, maintenance, and service standards are needed to enhance the guest experience. Apart from the scenic route and the location itself, I would recommend keeping expectations modest regarding the facilities and services.

I went there a decade ago, never had the opportunity to write anywhere. It's a very very special place where I went with my family. The memories created over here is unforgettable. Would love to travel there again hopefully to relive those experiences again. Bicycle ride, kayaking, bird sanctuaries, The Periar river, tent house with attached washroom, the breakfast, the weather, the sound of wild animals. The experience was out of the world.

Terrible service and experience. We had booked a room here and travelled over 10 hours to their remote location while staying in contact with them only to be turned away at the last minute in the middle of the night for no reason by their team who switched off their phones!

Very basic Govt run Some tents don’t have hot water Must book one of the 2 tents on the river. Could not get any ice Food basic but fine.
