My week at Punnamada was nothing short of magical. The authentic Kerala-style bungalows were a delight, and the outdoor shower was a real treat. The warm and caring staff always went above and beyond to ensure we were happy. Every meal was exceptional, particularly the special candlelit dinner they arranged for us. Although I loved the experience, it felt a bit overwhelming at times due to the packed schedule of activities. Overall, it's an incredible place for relaxation and rejuvenation.
