Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the hotel was an absolute dream, with the wonderful Pool Hut Villa providing a spacious living room, a mesmerizing view of the river Kabini, and even a loft double bed to gaze at the starry skies. The service was exceptional, from personalized touches like an elephant toy for my little one to informative boat safaris. The location was perfection along the backwaters of river Kabini, offering unique experiences like nature walks and night walks. The dining experience was delightful, with a self-service restaurant for lunch and a more intimate atmosphere at dinner. The facilities were top-notch, enhancing an already magnificent stay.
My stay at Evolve Back Kabini was truly unforgettable! The hotel's location next to the beautiful Kabini River and the spacious huts provided a heavenly feel, surrounded by lush greenery. The rooms are exquisitely designed to harmonize with nature, offering a perfect escape for a couple seeking a stress-free getaway. The service was exceptional, with courteous and friendly staff creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. However, the dining experience, while offering a wide variety of cuisine, lacked a bit of intimacy during dinner. The facilities were top-notch, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable stay overall.
The hotel was delightful and in stunning grounds with good rooms and pool; just a little 'dated' in our 'jacuzzi villa. Rooms were quite good, including sofa and armchairs, a dining room table & chairs, a well-furnished bedroom, and a VERY spacious bathroom with a separate bath and shower. However, the 'jacuzzi villa' felt a bit dated.
