Staying at the resort was a lovely experience with a perfect location by the water, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The staff were genuinely warm and helpful, making our stay enjoyable. However, the pool area could use some improvements, and the mosquito situation in the rooms was a bit bothersome. Overall, it offered a great mix of relaxation and fun activities for families.

My stay at Kalathil Lake Resort had its ups and downs. The location was stunning, surrounded by lush nature and providing a tranquil atmosphere. The cottages were spacious, offering beautiful views, but the overall maintenance of the property left much to be desired. While the staff was very courteous, the dining experience was hit-or-miss, with food that wasn't always hot or fresh. Despite its beautiful setting, I felt that the resort was a bit overpriced given the issues I encountered.

My stay at this resort was quite disappointing overall. While the atmosphere was nice and the outdoor space was appealing, the service and amenities left much to be desired. The rooms were spacious but had cleanliness issues, and the dining options were limited and not very satisfying.

My stay at Kalathil Resort was quite a mixed bag. On one hand, the views and natural surroundings were absolutely beautiful, making for a serene escape. However, the service left much to be desired, and several facilities, like the swimming pool, could use serious improvement. Overall, I enjoyed the nature aspect but was disappointed with the overall experience and service quality.

I had an amazing stay at Kalathil Lake Resort. The ambiance was simply beautiful, and the well-maintained surroundings added to the charm. The activities like paddle boating and the swimming pool were fantastic, making it a perfect getaway. While the dining experience at the restaurant was great with tasty food, the insect situation in the evening was somewhat bothersome.
