Arrived at this hotel in the evening and got taken to our room it was a dark dingy room. There was mold on the walls, toilet was dirty, a million spiders in every single room and the blankets smelt like vomit. They asked us to pay Rs 15,000 which was outrageous and extremely high for the terrible living conditions of the tree house. This is probably one of the most unhygienic "hotel" I have been to.

Horribly unhygienic tree house

Booked for 2 nights, stayed only for 1 night because of very poor cleanliness, broken toilet, no electricity. 

Expect a 2 start hotel service and cleanliness for 12,000 rupees. 

Ignore this if you feel fake, stay go through the pathetic experience we had.

Please stay away from this place

The overall experience was fair. The issues which I found are as below:

The tree house was found with zero maintenance. The curtains were half fallen with open hook ends. There were spider webs around the balcony. The staircases were too old and were shaking while climbing. Most of the steel parts were found rusted which means they were not pained for long which is leading to corrosion. The rooms lights were dim enough. Things were organised well with cupboards and sitting chairs but the walls were not clean. Found black patches which means it was not painted for long. The door lock was broken and came out of wall as we closed.
It's ok for one night stay if you are looking for budgeted stay without much hoping around the tree. Shabby look may make it a dull experience for many. It doesn't look as clean as shown in the pictures above.

Stay in Jiv Jungle tree house experience

The place took me by surprise with its lush green surroundings and serenity. It’s a different world altogether. Farm animals, nesting birds and a cool breeze always gushing by! Bliss and peace found in one big green package🙌

In nature’s lap

Stay away from this place. One day before arriving the manager/owner Paul wrote to us saying that we couldn't have our last day in the Tree house since he had double booked it. He didn't take any kind of responsibility and blamed booking.com. We barely saw Paul during our stay but the wifi didn't work at all and the electricity and water was inconsistent. On the day that he overbooked us, he put us in a "Japanese house" that was abandoned and really dirty. Later he arrived wanting our payment. We told him that we haven't received any kind of compensation for this inconvenience and we weren't happy with our stay since nothing really worked. He then says we can get a discount if we claim that we haven't stayed in the tree house and cancel our stay at booking. Considering our bad experience we felt that we want to have the possibility to write a review warning others to not visit this place. We payed him the full amount which was around 30 000 rupees. Later next day when we left to Kochin we received an email that he had written to booking.com that we hadn't showed up for our stay. We were tricked. I guess that shows what kind of person the manager Paul is, a dishonest man.

Stay away from this place!

First of all the access to this place is like finding a needle in a Hay stack.

No proper direction. Google maps shows a place which is 10 kms away from the property.

Finally when we were close to the place we found the roads were in a pathetic condition. *Please don't use a vehicle with low ground clearance nor should you use the vehicle which are wider than wagon R.

Once you reach, please do not expect a cheerful welcome. Forget a average customer service, a bottle of drinking water was not available. They provided it after a long wait.

That's just beginning of our most horrible experience ever. For our luck their motor pump was spoilt. At.2.30 pm They said they would repair it in half an hour's time. It got repaired only after 6.00 pm that too after calling the make my trip guys repeatedly.

At 6.30 pm we thought it would be better but the water was so brown, we felt that we would definitely  contract some disease. We asked them to check the water. the response was that it is clean. This was the final blow to my patience. 

We tried to complain, but they told us on our face that they are not compelling us to stay. When we told them that it was unethical to tell us that, they responded by saying it was their property and they have all the freedom to tell us that we can move out of their property if we don't like it.

Yes it's true, but it would have been right if they had asked us to move out before making us stay till 7.00 pm in the night when there are hardly any other hotels were we could check in.

It was a day light robbery and they were not willing to pay us the refund too.

Some of my other concerns were there were no toilet rolls and no proper ventilation in the bathroom. There are no fans and they say that the fans are not necessary.

Some one need not spend 9,680 per night for 2 rooms in advance to stay in such a bad resort. Instead we can stay in  hotels for one fourth the amount.

Make my trip had promised me that they will refund my full amount by tomorrow. I hope they do that. Else please please some one advice me on how to go to consumer court.

Expats, please be aware that these guys are cheating you. You can get 10 times better service else where for the same price.

Most pathetic experience ever.

First of all this is a must experience by anyone who is visiting Munnar and Jobin is dealing with all our requests and he's very kind and helpful. They arranged Homefood,swings,campfire and anything you want. Also they got amazing pets around to play. Will definitely visit again.

Excellent location and wonderful service!!

Gorgeous property a little distance away from the Munnar town... beautifully crafted and conceived treehouse...the hosts made us feel so comfortable and were a big reason for us recommending the place...The highlight of the place was how immersive and educative an experience our trip turned out to be.. the tea leaves, the pepper pods, bay leaves et all...and varied birdlife to boot

A wonderful world far from the crowds...

Good experiences in the jungle to practise yoga and meditition. i am solo traveller i didn’t feel i am alone because the host family of accomendation is so friendly all time helping me and talking with me and also we shared food togather. Their kids are so polite and friendly. 

Time to practise meditition

Excellent treehouse experience though slightly outskirts of Munnar. But great place to relax if you want to stay away from the noisy town.Stayed with my daughter. Giant swing was wonderful. She enjoyed playing with rabbits and made friends with the pet dog named Darcil of the resort (4 bubbles)
