    We have visited DANDELI AND STAYED AT DANDELI CHALET FOR THREE DAYS. TRIP WAS VERY RELAXING. NATURE LOVERS SHOULD VISIT. FOOD AT CHALET WAS HYGIENIC AND ORGANIC PEOPLE WILL ENJOY NATIVITY FOOD.. MR. SUDHARSAN INCHARGE HAS GOOD KNOWLEDGE AND PASSION OF BIRDS AND NATURE. HORNBILL SPECIALITY WAS TOLD BY HIM CHETANA MADAM IS MAINTAINING THE PREMESIS WELL. I WOULD RECOMMED STAY HERE. NO TV IN THE COTTAGE IS SPECIALITY. COMING ON HOLIDAY AND WATCHING TV IS OF NO USE. GREAT IDEA OF NO TV FAMILY MEMBERS CAN SHARE . LITTLE LAWN ARRANGEMENT For having evening tea n snacks was i could suggest. REST THE TRIP WAS MEMORABLE.

    It's a 100% Homestay (not a resort type!). From a true homestay, we expect a caring, matured and understanding host in the first place - undoubtedly Mr. Sudarshan and the staff are. The cottages have absolute privacy from the main building and other small play things in the garden. The cottages are no less than a 5-star hotel rooms. The bathrooms have almost-all jaguar fittings. Food is 100% veg and more like malnad style. @Sudarshan Sir - Menu is undoubtedly healthy but may be u can check about adding one masala item(spicier and hot kinda) to cater to all segments of vegetarians (especially in cold weather) :) I wouldn't comment on the price as the opinion varies. My fellow tourists, if you are looking for a true Homestay (not a resort, I repeat) experience that is centric to all places and safari in Dandeli, look no further. Talk to the host,get a good quote and head there without a second thought

  • 5/5 Aishwarya D. 5 years ago on Google
    We went as a group of 15 people and stayed at this wonderful place for 2 days. The place essentially has 5 cottages, a central dining hall, a shed housing 4-5 tents and loadddsss of free space.The greenery surrounding the place was refreshing and helped keep the weather pleasant throughout our stay - even during sunny mornings.It got slightly chilly after sunset.The place was very well maintained and clean.The cottage is pretty spacious with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. Coming to the owner of the place, Mr.Sudarshan was a gracious host and was available for clarifications round the clock.He helped us plan our trip in dandeli and even got us approval to visit the breath taking Sykes point.He was extremely enthusiastic to share his knowledge about the local places, practices, history, wildlife and nature.He even came up with a special walk route in the morning on our request and guided us through the buffer zone for nearly 4 kms(one way), constantly sharing tidbits. The two helpers were very pleasant and courteous.The food was amazing.They served us with freshly prepared hot/cold beverages every single time we went out or came back.They were extremely flexible with timings - be it readily arranging lunch well ahead of the usual timings when we had to leave for rafting or waiting patiently for us to have our dinner past 10 pm when we lost track of time in the campfire they arranged for us! The only minor inconvenience was availability of hot water.The cottages do not have individual water heaters but is instead fed from a common supply by heating water - so it is not available 24*7. Overall we were extremeeeellllyyy satisfied with the place, more so with the people here.

    A very beautiful place to spend your vacation with your family. Pollution free environment, life amidst nature.. A must visit place if you are stressed and tired of the hectic life.

  • 5/5 Smita A. 5 years ago on Google
    A beautiful location, serene, calm and pristine. Absolutely heartwarming hospitality from both the host Sudarshan and his caring staff who took care of all our needs as one would of their own family. Local travel was also organised to all the adventure activity spots which only added to the thrill of our stay!! Lovely wholesome food, spotless cottages and dining area and interesting conversations with Sudarshan made our stay most memorable. Thank you Sudarshan to you and your team 🙏

    The veg food served was very delicious though simple. Rooms were clean and hygienic. Total ambiance was very nice. Staff was very cooperative and accommodative. Special thanks to Parashuram for all his arrangements. Whole thing is kept so simple yet elegant.

  • 5/5 Sriranga R. 4 years ago on Google
    Location: Location is an advantage as it is away from the city. Very peaceful. Greenary all around with nice views. Rooms and Dining area are well maintained. Food: Amazing food. They serve only veg as they are vegetarians. Package incl 1 BF 1 lunch 1 Dinner and tea snacks. Facility: Campfire, Badminton court, swings. It was our 1st wedding Anniversary. I wanted it to be blend of romantic and adventure. I felt the place was apt to celebrate with candle light (which i alredy had planned with all the necessary required things). It was a great stay and i recommend.

  • 5/5 Murali I. 1 year ago on Google
    Dandeli is one of my favourite destinations for birding, wildlife and some spectacular jungle drives. Dandeli Chalet is a big surprise and a whiff of fresh air among mushrooming stays and resorts. Nestled in a 15 acre property with well appointed spacious rooms and hospitality a few notches above.... A quiet den for families who do not want to carry the baggage of city life into the wild. The veg food served is one of the best and hosptality overseen by Parashuram is worth returning back to :)

  • 5/5 Dr. Sanjeev J. 1 year ago on Google
    It's a beautifully maintained home stay, with a pure veg food. The staff is very cooperative & they offer you various kinds of dishes after every 3 hours. You ask them anything & they would serve you with a smiling face. Well maintained rooms, only 5 cottages but then the staff serves you with best hospitality. They take you on a trail as well. I would strongly recommend this for pure veg families.

    Dandeli chalet is located amidst lush greenery. The rooms, dining area and the entire homestay as such is very neatly maintained. The food was simple and tasty. Their hospitality is unmatchable. I would highly recommend this homestay for its peaceful, homely vibes.

  • 5/5 P L C. 6 months ago on Google
    We were group of six. We stayed for two days. It was excellent . Mr. Parshuram, the manager and his team took care of our requirements more than what we expected. The food was excellent, hospitality was awesome. The location and rooms are very good. They guided and arranged our all our sightseeing . Mr. Parshuram also took us for a walkthrough in the jungle and provided us the excellent information. Luckly , we could meet the owners Mrs. Rachna & Mr. Prassanna Bhat. They were overlooking for our stay. Very helpful and committed owners for the best setvices. We can definitely recommend a stay at Chalet Homestay.

  • 4/5 Vinay K. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a very well maintained home stay with clean rooms. Mr. Sudarshan is a perfect host who has amazing knowledge of the local flora and fauna. The early morning walks with him was full of knowledge and information. This is one of the few homestays in Dandeli which is pure vegeterian. Food is very homely and is tasty. There are open areas around the homestay where kids can play. Tree house is one of the main attraction. Nearby places to visist: Honey bee park, Supa dam and water activities nearby.

  • 5/5 Mahesh B. 3 years ago on Google
    Simply superb. Beyond words. Good hygiene food with good spread of home cooked food. Cottages with attached bathroom is very spacious. The property respects nature and grow vegetation suitable for birds to make their home too. Lots of species are residents in the property. Mr Parasuram is multi tasker and strives to ensure the guests make their visit and stay memorable. Mr Narayan and Mrs Malini ensures your taste buds are really satisfied. Spacious property for your recreation and enjoyable stay.

  • 5/5 Shruthy V. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing place. Very much reasonable as per price and facilities. Food inclusive is pure vegetarian and home cooked. The manager is a knowledgeable person and helps organise the sightseeing very well. The place is a real retreat in the forest. We had a great experience of bird watching and water sports.

  • 4/5 Rajath U. 3 years ago on Google
    The Dandeli Chalet gives a real home stay experience and it's best for both Families and individuals. Homestay people are very polite and take care of guests well. The food is only veg which is really delicious and hygienic. I highly recommend this place for those who look for a decent place to stay having home like environment.

  • 5/5 Mani I. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Soma C. 4 years ago on Google
    We stayed here for 4 nights with my 9 year old son. Sudarshan, LaxmiNarayan Kaka and Malini Kaki were very friendly. Sudarshan took us for nature walk cum small trekking and explained us about the forest and food chain. He suggested for bird watching with ornithologist Rajni. This was one of the best part of the trip where we spotted lot of birds and learnt about them esp about hornbill. We had a campfire at the end of each day and we always looked forward to it. There was a wide, open ground with a 300 year old tree with swings on it. The food had a local taste and we all loved it. We were relaxed during our stay in Chalet. Nearby places worth visiting is Honey park.

    Really nice place to relax

  • 5/5 Sudhir B. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good place. Calm and quite place. Good vegetarian food.

  • 4/5 franky g. 4 years ago on Google
    We had booked Dandeli chalet for 1730 per person per day inclusive of all the meals; which was actually a steal. Dandeli Chalet is a homestay & please expect good quality home made food; nothing fancy but good. The care takers along with Sudarshan were very humble & helpful. The rooms were clean & all the necessary amenities provided. Please do not expect ACs & Wifi but badminton rackets, carrom board, acres of land to stroll. we did not even have a car but Sudarshan had Parshuram be with us with a jungle safari jeep. If you looking forward to a peaceful & serene outing where you do not want to keep on your social media, this is the place for you!More

    Good Service, hotel cleanliness is good, food qyality is best

  • 2/5 Arun K. 4 years ago on Google
    Place is good. Food was okay. There is no room service, it will be difficult if you go with family and kids. If you need even drinking water you need to walk 400 m to fetch one. No activities available. This is just to stay.

  • 4/5 Mahesh M. 4 years ago on Google
    Very peaceful place to spend quality time with family. Not for the young crowd. Good hospitality. Decent food. However it can improve in the areas of snacks and tea and coffee. Tea coffee was bad. I feel some other amenities should be added like herbal Bath, mountain bike riding etc. Nature walk was good.

  • 5/5 Srivishal S. 4 years ago on Google
    Very homely feel with home made food. And people are very nice. Water adventures are a blast to do with your family and friends.
