Budget accommodation at a star price

family with 3 kids

we have stayed in budgies cottage from 11 oct tob12 oct 2024. Neat and clean room with a big bath room, however cleanliness of the bathroom is not upto the mark. An exhaust fan is missing in the bathroom and no dressing mirror available in the bedroom. Breakfast was good but with limited options.Bottled water alongwith tea bags and kettle provided. Only 5 minute walk to thattekkad bird sanctuary. Nearest town is at a distance of 4 km. A kids swimming pool available in the property, however cleaning started by 8.30 am and took around 3 hrs to finish . so no option to use the same before check out. Overall experince is good.

Good food and nothing else

vivek p.loyalty-iconfamily

We were thoroughly disappointed at budgies cottage and i will tell you why. Let me tell you that the food and hospitality were amazing. The room was a disaster. We didn't get a cottage which we booked because the place was overbooked. We got a bigger room which was called an upgrade and had unhygienic toilet spaces and an issue with ac. Somehow survived the night with a toddler. The birds are just kept in average cleanliness and there is a pool, where if you dare step in, you are sure to risk your good health. Go here only if you want good food and don't mind average cleanliness. The manager was really nice and suggested a few places to visit. But, poor experience, overall!

Good location, limited service

ananthanarayan i.couple

Excellent location of property is its biggest asset. The general ambience is good but can be tough for elderly as the rooms are upslope. Food is very basic and was repetitive and food service starts pretty late. No option for packed break

Poor Stay

bindu.loyalty-icon

I booked the property budges cottage for my wife and 2 other ladies on 30th december 2021. To my horror the property owner said he has not received any booking info from make my trip when the ladies reached the property. And he offered a ordinary room but returned the extra amount on check out. I booked the deluxe villa and was offered a ordinary room. Request everyone to be extra careful while dealing with this property. To my astonishment make my trip also didn't help me when i called up to make a formal complaint. Overall a very bad experience from make my trip as well as the property budgies cottages,
