“My exploration suggests Club Mahindra Thekkady offers a genuinely green escape, with well-maintained grounds that embrace the natural surroundings, although the swimming pool seems geared primarily towards younger guests. While dining costs are on the higher side, the convenience of nearby alternatives and the attentive staff contribute to a comfortable stay. The presence of monkeys around rooms is a notable aspect of the location, reminding guests to secure their belongings.”
