Kids enjoyed playing cricket and walking around.
We would like to go back for another family outing.
The location is pristine; chosen one overlooking the Waterfalls. Very beautiful views. Better than those shown on Photos. The service is very good. Breakfast and food are also good.
Rooms are clean, and bigger. Somewhat issue about Hot water, but that is there everywhere in Ooty because of December weather.
Do not miss to stay here.
Located amidst mountains and tea estates of Ooty in the south of India, this place is located more precisely near ‘Kalhatti Waterfalls’ on the ‘Seegur Ghat Road’ amidst the lush greenery of the tea plantations, waterfalls and dense foliage set at about 1,600 meters above sea level making it a very quiet and peaceful retreat.
Specifically, Mystique Ville is right off the 15th Hairpin Bend (about 25 kms downhill) from Ooty town, enroute to Masinagudi / Theppakadu / Mudumalai Wildlife Sanctuary.
The property is a well-maintained and very charming Portuguese style resort with Victorian style interiors. Each of the 11 Victorian styled rooms has restored antique furniture, complete with a hearth.
The 2 nights and 3 days that we spent there, we had the entire property all for ourselves, since there were absolutely no other guests !!
Jessica, the front office help was really helpful. Didn’t see any Manager about whom I’ve heard horror stories. The rest of the support staff was not too enthusiastic to put it mildly. Perhaps there were no guests around except just my family.
May be because there were no other guests the service standards were overall lax and lethargic.
Just to quote one example, when I got up early one morning (by about 6) to my utter shock I realised that no hot water was flowing from the bathroom taps. Mind you, mornings around here can get pretty chilly and the cold water was near freezing.
So I desperately went around looking for some help who can turn on the hot water supply, but couldn’t find a soul for a good 1 hour. After great difficulty I managed to catch hold of some local help and they in turn went looking for the plumber, who was finally found and after a good couple of hours running around the resort the hot water supply was finally turned on. It was very frustrating besides being very irritating. You certainly don’t want to go through this when you’re on your vacation.
One more downside of being the only occupants of the resort was that the restaurant service was shockingly poor and casually negligent.
The resort had to cook only for us and naturally it was on our pre order. No issues there. But what was served was of extremely poor quality with little or no taste, besides having to wait endlessly for our food – breakfast, lunch and dinner – even though we tell the restaurant in-charge what we’ll have a good 3-4 hours beforehand.
Overall loved the property. Particularly the pristine and lush environs complete with a flowing waterfalls (whose ever present lilting sound can soothe and calm the most knotted of nerves). Full marks there.
But the service standards across the board leave a lot to be desired.
We came from mysore side and had booked Vintage rooms for two days through Agoda. First thing first- the hotel receptionist rarely pick the phone. With the help of google maps we somehow managed to locate the property. When we reached there, to my dismay they said Vintage rooms would be available the next day morning only since it's under renovation and for the time-being night they shall give us a Heritage room (and said I can get a refund from Agoda). So be it, we thought, since it was already 7pm in the night and we just wanted to hit bed.
Heritage room is strictly average- the cot was old and shaking, the TV was too old, few of the plug-points din't work, the switchboard to which the TV was connected had come off from the wall, one of the window didn't have bolts and the toilet was not neat. And to top it all up, the price that they charge for food makes TAJ look very VFM.
Got up late in the morning and when I checked about the vintage rooms they said the room would be available by 12 only. The free breakfast had limited items only and was strictly ordinary. Frustrated with whats happening around, we decided to leave the place immediately.
Will I come back? A big No.
Note: Please exercise caution while booking through Agoda. They don't have a customer support service in India and they are not supportive at all, to say the least. Their refund policy is a joke.
