Adventure Zone Bliss

During my stay at Esthell Village Resort, I was absolutely thrilled with the variety of sports and fitness options available. The new indoor badminton court was a pleasant surprise, and I loved the outdoor adventure park. It was the perfect way to spend our afternoons. The sprawling grounds really encourage exploration and exercise. My family and I had an amazing time participating in activities that kept everyone engaged! Looking forward to my next visit.

Delicious Dining Experience

The food at Esthell Village Resort was a highlight of our stay! We enjoyed a fantastic buffet breakfast each morning that included fruit, fresh juices, and traditional dishes. I especially loved the homestyle cooking at dinner, particularly their flavorful mutton biryani that left a lasting impression. Dining here added to our overall vacation experience and was certainly a delight. I highly recommend indulging in the culinary offerings during your stay!

Kid-Friendly Fun

As a family with children, we deeply appreciated the children's amenities at Esthell Village Resort. The vast swimming pool was a big hit! It was equipped with rides and splash areas perfect for kids. My five-year-old enjoyed playing there all weekend while I could relax. There were also many activities to keep him entertained, ensuring our family vacation was packed with fun. I will definitely be bringing my family back again!

I particularly enjoyed the charming views from our room, surrounded by nature.

The resort is a massive property surrounded by lush greenery, perfect for families looking for activities. The kids particularly enjoyed the pool and the multitude of recreational options available. However, reaching some locations within the resort was a bit of a hassle, as walking could be tiring, especially with young kids. Also, there were some maintenance issues that could use attention.

I had a wonderful time at Esthell, which is a great getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. The atmosphere was peaceful, and I felt welcomed by the staff. While the swimming pool was fantastic, it would have been better if group pool access was managed differently. Overall, it’s a lovely place for families with plenty of activities, but a few areas could use some improvement.

We had a really tough experience on our son's birthday at this resort. While the amenities seemed appealing, our overall enjoyment was hindered by the food quality and unexpected charges. It felt quite chaotic and far from what is typically offered at a resort. I wouldn't recommend it for celebrations unless things improve.

The dining experience was one of the worst aspects; the food was not good at all with rubbery naan and no non-vegetarian options provided.
