Mr Natrajan the main caretaker was also very kind n shared a lot of sightseeing tips

Best experience ever ❤️🥰

we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kurinji. The place was kept impeccably well. The staff kept distance and had their masks on whenever they came close to us. The manager , Mr, Natarajan was courteous. The cook, Gerald was extremely thoughtful in cooking as per our taste and was excellent. His assistand Raj was also very sweet. A good team indeed!

SaffronStays is nice cottage. We no need to go for sightseeing, because within this Saffronstays itself we have to spend half day to look on. that much view is there. Also food and management is very good. I am suggesting this place to everyone to visit and stay there for a while.

A wonderful place for a family who want to stay away from the crowd. The property almost gives you that old tea estate cottage. The 10 acre woods and a walk within that is mesmerising. Mr Jerald was been very kind and actively listening to our needs and pro actively addressing our needs. Families and travellers who prefer to spend time. You got a lot of private spots within the 10 acre property with a pong and view point over the south end of the estate

Wonderful stay....Resort is very clean....Foods are homely and tasty....staffs are very friendly superb service

Good experience

had a good time in kurinji estate at kodai. enjoyed a lot. food preparation is really good. staffs also very kind and very helpfull.

Awesome hospitality

Price is little bit high.

Mostly wonderful experience! The property is beautiful and the team is warm.

We have stayed there for 2 days and both these days we felt comfortable and happy. The place was quite and breathtaking. It was peaceful and one who loves nature should definitely visit it. The manager Natarajan sir was very friendly and he always catered to our needs. The staffs Jerald and Rajkumar were well behaved and too friendly. Jerald anna's cooking was awesome and especially the chicken curry he made was mouthwatering. He also gave us the receipe on how to make it. They made us comfortable by providing whatever we asked for. Even during midnight they didn't hesitate to provide us water. We would definitely visit back to this same cottage when we come back to Kodaikanal. We would also recommend this to our friends.

All good vibe🥰🥰🥰

Natarajan and team’s service is highly satisfactory. Thank you.

Fantastic meals and good service by all the staff ! Highly recommended..

Had a Memorable stay...a place where u don't have to think twice for booking

We had a wonderful time at the Kurinji Estate. The villa and its surrounding gardens felt magical - quiet and peaceful and beautiful. The service was excellent and the in house food was also pretty good. Would recommend this place strongly for a quiet getaway

It was a great experience and the staffs were really helpful and courteous. It was a great stay!

Saffronstays Kurinji was one of the warmest stay experiences we had. The staff took really good care of us in terms of hospitality and meals, and was very accommodating. Shoutout to Mr. Gerald and Mr. Natarajan for their efforts.

It was a great stay at kurinji estate. Enjoyed the lush green surroundings. Wonderful staff ganapathy and Gerald, they were so nice in arranging things.

Dec '20 - The property is away from the hustle of the town and very calm and serene. Very well maintained, clean and follows all Covid precaution measures to the tee. Natrajan the manager was always available and very responsive. The food is very good, homely and cooked fresh on request. But apart from all this, what really defined our experience was Gerald and his A-class service. His polite demeanour and excellent attitude makes this place a perfect stay. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to travel to Kodai.

Excellent place for spending quality time with Family.

The stay at Kuringi was very pleasant and the staff was very humble. The property is very nicely maintained and furnished. Only scope of improvement is the meals part, which is decent but you can add different/more options, which will be even more better. Overall the stay was a blissful one.

The property is beautiful and has its own forest. Simply walking around it was a great experience in itself. We visited at a lovely time weather wise wherein we experienced sunny, Misty and rainy weather in the week we stayed there. The rooms are comfortable with all amenities in place. Ganapathi and staff are excellent caretakers and always available at all times for any requests! It was a fantastic experience living at this property! Highly recommend this property.

Wonderful property. Really comfortable and cosy rooms. Food was delicious esp breakfast. Gerald and Ganpati really took care of us.

The room heaters were not that good. Bathroom and Towels were not that clean. Rest everything was fine... Had a nice and relaxed time at the place.

We had very pleasant stay at the Kurinji estate kodaikannal.The staff was soo welcoming and friendly.The rooms and garden all well maintained.Perfect for family vacations.Looking forward to more vactions with saffron stays

It was a quaint beautiful property. Caretaker was humble and helpful

The stay felt very homely and nature friendly ....sheets had stains on it and felt that the dinner menu could be increased a bit further..else it was all good and pleasant ..It would have been great if the staff were masks and gloves as it gives a feeling of safety ..

Very well maintained and awesome stay. Thanks

Very homely place with awesome staff. Will be better with upgrades to electrical equipment in rooms.

Fantastic property. The service was impeccable and the food was heavenly. We enjoyed every moment of our stay.

It's a corporate company's guest which they have placed it online as a homestay. It's a very big property with its own 10 Acre backyard. You might get a chance to see Bison if you are lucky. Good food provided at a cost and it's very good. Awesome and comfortable stay

Very courteous and friendly staff excellent food great ambiance. .

Peaceful property with excellent caretakers. It was away from the town (10 minutes by car) with excellent views and large rooms. Each room has extra beds a really good touch for families with children. The room warmer was good to keep the room slightly warm.

Wonderful stay. Highly recommended..

The service and food were very good, Location was excellent.

Location, food, estate, staff. Overall very good experience and can be recommended to friends.

A different world within… Drove to Kodai from Chennai. The roads inside the Kodai town are too narrow and battered. The town is too crowded and commercialized for a hill station to feel relaxed. The entrance to the property is from a narrow lane. But the moment we enter inside, it’s a different world altogether. It’s an old English Bungalow converted into a resort housing 6 rooms with separate common dinning and entertainment space. There is also in house kitchen and they serve hot, delicious homely food. They have a game room with a TT table and carom board and an outdoor badminton court. There is a lovely lawn surrounded by colorful flowers. The garden extends around the bungalow. The rooms are pretty small but compact and good enough for an family of 3. It was neat, tidy and clean. The staffs were courteous and prompt in service. Once inside you do not feel the chaotic town outside and we had a relaxing peaceful pleasurable stay.

It was our first venture to choose a place other than the traditional hotel. Initially the idea was a little away and made us quiet apprehensive about the stay at such a place that was never experienced before. Moreover stay at such places require a lot of courage to overcome fear regarding basic amenities and quality of food. But on our arrivals we found things to be absolutely different. The very first response from the staff was exhilarating. Their humbleness and courtesy touched our hearts The serenity of the place was the second thing that jostled our minds and captured everything we has. The staff provided all the hospitality required for such professional industry. Food was amazing and the service was passionately done The stay at KURUNJI ESTATE was undoubtedly a memorable one.

Excellent Service !! The staff was very helpful & polite. Beautifully kept garden. Very comfortable stay. Thank you!!!!

Excellent food, Friendly staff. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Unbelievably nice location and surroundings !! Rooms are great. The food and services were other best aspects of our stay. We enjoyed thoroughly. Surely, Will come back.

Kudos to Mr Natrajan & team. We had a delightful stay. Everything was taken utmost care. Looking forward to staying with our extended family soon Many thanks !!

Very good property. Well maintained. Close to Central point. Courtesy of staff, excellent. Will refer friends and relatives.

Excellent location, excellent infrastructure and facilities... thanks. Great hospitality by the caretaker.. Lot of open space with dense forest for moving around, even a small lake is also present in backside which helps rejuvenate ..

We were a family of 8 and stayed here for 4 nights. A very memorable vacation for all of us. Everything about the place is quaint and tranquil -- property, rooms, interiors and location. It has a well spread out lawn with beautiful flowers. The campus is huge and has its own personal trail and a nice lotus pond (with an interesting "haunted" history as well ). You can spend your entire day lazing within the property, exploring its nooks and still not get bored. The special touch to the stay is added by the caretaker Mr. Natarajan and his wife. They are delightful hosts who take personal care of each and every guest. Mrs. Natarajan is an amazing cook and dishes out a lip smacking variety of food of all cuisines, including North Indian. We had at least 6 meals plus breakfast -- and every single food item was very tasty!!! It was my father's birthday and also my brother's anniversary-- Mrs. Natarajan put together a very special spread for us and made the evening doubly en

The cottage is right out of the British Era. A beautifully maintained Garden greets you and you know that you have not gone wrong is selecting a perfect place for your vacation. We were greeted by Natarajan who is the caretaker and he ensured we were made comfortable right thru our stay at the cottage. Jacqueline his wife served us some great food and bites right thru our stay. The cottage is about 3 kms from the lake and you can get taxis to take you there if you wish to do. We plan to go back with a larger group soon.

Extremely charming property. The locality is very nice. Natarajan is an amazing caretaker and his wife makes delicious food.

Excellent location, excellent infrastructure and facilities... thanks. Great hospitality by the caretaker.. Lot of open space with dense forest for moving around, even a small lake is also present in backside which helps rejuvenate.

Celebrated my birthday at this beautiful property. Since we checked in on a Sunday (when most guests check out, owning to starting work on mondays), we had the entire place to ourselves. We spent the entire day lazing around on the garden, gorging on yummy food made by Jacqueline(caretaker's wife), watching movies. I would recommend you stay atleast a day here to unwind, after the tedious sight seeing. Recommend this to anyone who wants to unwind and stay away from the hustle and bustle of the season!

Had a wonderful experience staying here...its placed little away from the main city which means accessibility to anything important like atm or pharmacy is not too far and at the same time you have your peace and quiet time. Definitely coming back again!!!

Stayed in this home stay for 2 days and enjoyed every minute ...The big advantage we had was that we had the resort to ourselves which made it extra special and we could make ourselves at home in every part of the resort Enjoyed the peace and quiet of the property..But at the same time was not too far away from the main town Mr. & Mrs. Natarajan, the caretakers deserve special mention ...Our requirements were met out immediately by them and the other staff. The food was delicious and served in style.. Rooms and bathrooms were very clean and maintained well This is definitely a resort to check out on especially for people who know how Kodaikanal was more than 30 years ago and who want to relive those moments The garden around the resort is maintained very nicely and the flowering plants and collections of plants were a treat to the eyes.

The place was clean and beautiful. Very well maintained and peaceful property . The stay was relaxing and comfortable. Food was very tasty and was on time. Toilets need little bit more maintenance but overall I cannot ask for more. It is my favorite place in kodaikanal now.
