Riyavar Luxury Stay

We recently stayed at Riyavar Luxury Stay in Coorg, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The property itself is beautiful, nestled amidst lush surroundings, making it the perfect escape for anyone looking to unwind. Cleanliness is clearly a top priority here—everything was well-maintained and spotless. What truly sets this place apart is the hospitality. The entire staff was courteous, attentive, and welcoming. A special mention goes to our host, Shilpa, who went out of her way to personally check in on our requirements and ensure our stay was comfortable. The food was delicious, with the breakfast spread being a definite highlight—fresh, varied, and flavorful. If you are looking for peace, quiet, and quality time with your family surrounded by nature, we cannot recommend Riyavar Luxury Stay enough. We will definitely be visiting again!

This place is just beautiful beyond words. The greenery just took my heart away. And in the evening u can hear kriket and other insects, what a treat to the ears. Surrounding areas are equally beautiful. It kept drizzling and sometimes rained, just an awesome feeling.

Every place from this location is more than 40 mins to 1 hour travel. I booked this resort for its beauty. And since there was no traffic even driving to those far places was nice.

Infrastructure and location

Everyhing was good

Room was clean and fairly spacious.

- Deluxe queen room is wrongly described as having a double bed, single bed and sofa bed on Booking.com but it only has a double bed and a sofa bed which is narrower than a single bed (2.5ft) so I couldn't sleep comfortably at all. - The owner's poor Labrador was kept locked in a bare concrete cage for our entire stay (see photo). She said the dog was ill, which makes it even worse in my opinion! - Staff at the restaurant at breakfast brought the wrong dishes multiple times. - We didn't understand the fact that you had to order by midday for dinner even for standard items like noodles. We opted out of dinner on the second day as it wasn't to our taste. - The view from the rooms is just of the car park so there isn't really a nice spot to sit and enjoy the view of the surroundings. Seating at the viewpoint and pool is inadequate. - I asked for an extra pillow as they only gave one thin pillow on the sofa bed. They gave a dirty pillow with a pillowcase that was too small for the pillow (see photo). -WiFi is very temperamental and worse than everywhere else we stayed in the mountains. -No tea/coffee/kettle in the rooms and there is a charge if you order tea/coffee
