Their service is great and Vipin is a fantastic masseuse. All the staff treated me with the most respect. The food was very good as well

This place is a bliss to stay for. Such amazing views from every room, wonderful stay along the banks of Periyar River. Only minus is that there's no restaurant. But when you ask for food the caretaker gets food from a homemade place nearby and that tastes amazingly awesome. It's a perfect place for relaxation everyday waking up to the birds chirping, mild Breeze, the calmness around is so good you can hear the river flow. Such a serene atmosphere.

Visited this resort two weeks back along with my family. Had a nice experience. The location is excellent. The resort is located on the banks of the Periyar river. The place is very near to Malayattoor Pilgrimage. The weather was perfect. There is a lush green meadow with a small garden, where we can sit and relax listening to the ripples of the river and the murmuring sound of the bamboos. Three types of rooms are available here. Cottage room - 3k, A/c room - 2.5k, Non A/c room- 2k. Cottages were already full. We got a Cottage and an A/c room. The cottage room was fine, but the room amenities were not that great. The bedsheets and pillow covers seemed a bit worn out. The A/c and the Heater in the A/c room were not functioning. It was a bit frustrating but we adjusted. We didn't want to spoil the holiday mood. The service was great. The staff tried their best to keep us happy. The restaurant is available, but not operational. Food was served from some outside hotel. It was good and not at all expensive. Breakfast was complimentary and tasted very nice. Ayurveda, Spa facilities are also available here. We didn't avail any, as we were running out of time. The staff was very helpful. As the A/c was not functioning, he gave a discount on room rents also. Parking space available for 3-4 cars maximum. Don't worry, cars can be parked outside also. The road to the resort seemed like an off-road trip. 😅 Overall we had a nice experience and our family loved the trip.

It was actually a let down! Overall the resort is good, ambience was perfect. It is a riverside resort with peaceful surroundings. They have river facing swings and seating arrangement to unwind and relax. They have massage options. We got full body massage done. It was good for 1800/- but no dinner or evening snacks were made available. They said they don’t serve dinner. They were ready to order but veg options were limited so we made ourselves maggi for dinner. Tv was not working. Hot water was not available. Overall Ok for the price

We spent 10 days in the resort in February and had an incredible time. We booked a package with full board and two treatments per day. The treatments were brilliant and the ayurvedic food absolutely outstanding. The resort is very well maintained and located directly on the river, with a beatiful view and stunning sunsets. We came to recharge, relax, sleep and eat healthy and managed to do all of that. Yoga sessions must be booked and paid for separately. The staff is very friendly, helpful and attentive. Several excursions are possible from the retreat - staff will help with booking. Our advice would be to first spend a few days in Kochi and do all the explorations from there, and then go to the retreat. The elephant resort moved away several years ago and is now about 10 mins away by taxi.

A good place to unwind yourself, clean and comfortable rooms,dont expect luxury. View fabulous as the place sits on the periyar river. Healthy tasty vegetarian kerala cuisine served for meals,simple but delicious and authentic. Relax get ayurvedic treatments do yoga and laze on the hotel lawns on the river. Bobby the caretaker is an expert who churns the best combination fruit juices, but it seems the owner not spending money on facilities which are lacking, no fans in the outdoor dining. Fabulous setback views just to relax.

I stayed with my fam in elephant passage for 2 days and it was such a memorable one, the facilities, food, ambience everything was so pleasant. We had an entertainment session with suresh which was amazing. Rooms were very clean and will recommend for families.

Nice rever side view. Good place to spend n peace. Rooms were not that much clean, Food was just normal, i did not like it. They take parcel food, won't prepare here.

Excellent location as it is close to the river Periyar. The view of sunset is magnificent from this location. The resort is appealing to everyone.

Awesome atmosphere and ambience in and arround the place. Very close to the river and very beautiful riverside view and sitting spots

Amazing stay 😍😍😍 very good ambience and tasty food 😍😍 😍 nice river side view ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Excellent Place to have a pleasant stay with evergreen river view

Okay place with good view. No much options for food. There was no power when we visited and hence no AC and hot water.

Location is riverside , very beautiful, food was authentic kerala food, they also offer ayurvedic massage which we didn't experience, staff is very friendly, only thing some improvement in rooms infrastructure can be done...overall stay is memorable.

Good stay at a good location. Neatly maintained property. Friendly staffs. No food available for dinner. But they will arrange it from outside restaurant.

Location was really spectacular. Rooms and service was very poor! They don’t have even basic amenities such as bed sheets, food on site , proper functioning ACs. Will not recommend to anyone unfortunately

The place has beautiful scenic views of periyar river and the surroundings are the best to sit back and relax. The place is bit interior, still there is proper road access to the property. Rooms are of middle category. There was an elephant training camp nearby, and the elephants are taken to the river in front of the resort. Hence the name elephant pass. But now the training center has shifted to some other place.

Hidden gem of a place by the side of the periyar River. All rooms are River facing and they have AC as well as non ac rooms at reasonable rates. They also have two cottages for families. An ayurvedic doctor on prior appointment and an ayurvedic massage room with separate well trained male and female therapist adds to the facility of the place. (A 45 min full body massage costs 1500) Rooms are neat and well maintained and so is the outdoor area. Food is served in the indoor Cafe as well as the garden if intimated in advance. The only issue is that their on-premise kitchen only serves tea, coffee and juice while the meals are ordered from a restaurant nearby. The caretaker Mr Purshottam is a man Friday and prepared piping hot tea for us at 5.30 in the morning and having that in the garden looking at the river and hearing the chirping birds was a once in a lifetime experience. For those interested in bathing in the River, there's a location close to the resort

Amazing Stay at Elephant Pass Ayurveda and Yoga Retreat, I really enjoy the Ayurveda treatments and the location. If you are looking for an ayurvedic resort in Kerala it's an best choice. Affordable ayurveda resort with amazing location.

No people Monday through Friday. On Weakend some people came. Food is brought from local restaurants. Restaurant closed inside resort. Nice quiet place. Very relaxing. Staff are good.

👍

Such an awesome experience....

Very Good Ambience ❤️❤️ Loved the location.

Amazing place, with an amazing ambience. Right in the lap of mother nature. A great place to go if you're looking for Refuge from city life.

Very beautiful and serene place with a very hospitable crew at your service 24*7. They take care of you Big time. The food is simply awesome. You will get the best food made in Kerala here. All healthy stuff and home made and also organic to some extend as they get all the groceries from the local farms. If you are looking for a week or a couple weeks of relaxing time, this is the place for you. Highly recommend this place for all of their services.

Small rooms and food was not s great. The way towards the resort is very small and congested. The view from the rooms are marvelous

Good place for a getaway far from the city life. Located at the bank of the kodanadu River, the grassy lawn and bench with swing arranged at the river bank gives a relaxing feeling during evenings. Kitchen needs big time improvement coz there isn't much options than tea/coffee/lime juice.
