    Here's a polished version of your review: "Fragrant Nature Resort is a true marvel! The room views are breathtaking, with spacious sizes and great balconies overlooking the river. The infrastructure, swimming pool, and hotel facilities are all top-notch. But what truly sets this resort apart is the exceptional staff. From the moment we arrived, they welcomed us with warm smiles and were always eager to help. They went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, adjusting timings to extend our enjoyment of the swimming pool, spa, and dinner. Special mention to the reception staff - Leeba, Amal, and Shefin - who were incredibly helpful and made our stay unforgettable. Their smiles and hospitality were evident from the start, making every moment memorable. The spa experience, led by a knowledgeable doctor and his skilled team, is a must-try. It's an experience you won't want to miss! Overall, Fragrant Nature Resort is the best hotel in that area .

    The resort is far from the town centre and it's difficult to get to if you are not driving like we weren't. Taxis are expensive.

    Beautiful location right by the riverside. Surrounded by greenery. Clean and comfortable property. The staff is excellent and bend backwards to help in every way. Food is delicious and they also cater to special requests.

    The location is just amazing, the property is beautifully made and incredibly well maintained. Leeba took wonderful care of us throughout our stay, she came with us on our boat ride and suggested very good places nearby to explore, she was constantly available for us, Joseph made it more exciting by letting us ride the boat for a while, I felt like captain jack sparrow for a while. Out and out amazing experience.

    Location, access roads to resort, paved area inside resort( we cant walk without a footware especially going to swimming pool area from room was too long with out a foot ware).

    Customer care, morning buffet, boating, reception welcoming with indian style with set saree, welocome drink, immidiate check in, staff coming to the car park area and giving comfort was great. Especially the madam ( i don't know the name, on check out date in kerala set saree on 10/04/2024) helped a lot giving some free offers during our stay was great.

    Unfortunately the pool side area is looking a bit neglected, with a plunge pool/jacuzzi attached to the pool that is just empty. It is a bit unsightly. There are 4 sun loungers made of wood which are half the length of a normal sun lounger so not particularly comfortable for relaxing on. It is a shame because the property is otherwise beautiful, it is just a bit let down by this. I hadn’t realised how out of the way the hotel was when I booked it, so not really a town you can wander around, but if you’re after peace and tranquillity look no further.

    The hotel was in beautiful surroundings right on the lake. So tranquil and calming. Perfect place to unwind away from the huddle and bustle. There were lots of places around the grounds where you could sit and enjoy a different viewpoint of the lake. The food in the restaurant was delicious and if you wanted more spice, then you just had to say. The staff were constantly at work in the grounds keeping it tidy. We also both had an Ayurvedic treatment at the spa. It was quite the experience I have to say! Not something I had done before and to be honest not my cup of tea (I didn’t realise what was involved), but my husband was very relaxed afterwards and both the lady that did mine and the man that did his were fantastic.

    The staff at fragrant nature are so sweet and attentive. Everybody works so hard, taking care of the beautiful surroundings and making sure you have the best possible time while you are there. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. The spa and treatments are lovely, as are the excursions into the mangroves. I would 100% recommend this resort, and I would definitely stay there again.

    We are old clients of the hotel, and it seems that now they are more dedicated to large groups, events and celebrations. The private client takes second place.

    The hotel is renovated and the facilities are excellent. Ayurveda doctors and therapists is remarkable.

    Restaurant ambience was lacking and repetitive piped music was irritating. Swimming pool was poorly kept with only 4 beds and no cushions. Making it extremely uncomfortable. No beds by the backwater in the sun, as seen on website. Room was in need of an update, and when we asked about paying for an upgrade we were told all rooms were occupied. This clearly wasn’t the case as rooms were still available on Booking.com and there were very few guests.

    Lovely gardens and beautiful sunset bar. Gardens are very well maintained by the wonderful ladies that work so hard to keep it clear of leaves. Very comfortable bed. Masses of potential for a top class resort to be created.
