Recent Taj Garden Retreat Review: "We booked the heritage room and it was beautiful and spacious with really high ceilings! Also, our room has 2 bathrooms, though i suspect that not all the rooms has that. Wonderfully attentive staff, always willing to go out of their way to organise birding trips and village walks for us, despite the fact that there are only 2 of us! We also enjoyed  the sunset cruises and snacks every day! The food in the restaurants were good but a tad expensive considering the much cheaper food we had elsewhere in Kerela. The best part of the stay has to be when we got upgraded to a pool villa for our second night!!! We had our own verandah and private pool! There was also an outdoor bathroom :) The only downside to the pool villa was that the bed was queen-sized which was quite wierd considering that we got the king-sized bed in the heritage room. Anyway, the bed was plush and extremely comfortable :)"
