By the Riverside Sethumadai

Absolutely Wonderful Stay..... We stayed here to celebrate our wedding anniversary, with my wife and two kids -- and it was simply awesome! The pool villa was beautiful, spacious, and gave us the perfect private family time with no disturbance at all. The food was extraordinary! Special thanks to Mr. Karupaiya, the talented Tamil cook, who made every meal delicious and memorable. The caretakers Ashwin, Sameer and Saravanan were polite, attentive, and took great care of us throughout our stay. Everything about this place exceeded our expectations -- from the ambiance and privacy to the warm hospitality. I would happily give it 15 out of 10! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful yet special family getaway. We'll definitely be back with more beautiful memories to make!

It is an excellent place to have a stay with family enjoying with nature. Staffs very polite and hospitality was to the core and carrying. Special mention about the food by Chef Mr.Karuppaiah which yummy and feels like home. Samir, Aswin, Pandi, Saravanan made our stay a memorable one. Kudos to the entire team. Wishing you the best!

I had a fantastic stay at By the Riverside resort in Sethumadai! The room with a private pool was absolutely perfect--spacious, clean, and offering a peaceful retreat amidst nature. The food was another highlight; every meal was delicious and freshly prepared. The staff was warm and hospitable, making the experience even better. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway with great amenities, this place is a must-visit!

This is the 10th stay for us at By the Riverside. This is one property which has never disappointed us. We always stay at the Pool villa. The water is so clean and without chlorine, something that can't be found elsewhere easily. We visit here very often, the food, the service, the hospitality is top notch. A calm, serene place amidst a coconut farm set in the foothills of green mountains. We will be back soon for our next stay, thanks. Sameer served us well and took care of all our needs this time, thank you.

It was a wonderful stay at this resort. Room was very clean and neat. Staffs were very nice and kind. I must say that food they served here was one of the best home style cooked food I ever had in a hotel.

Excellent place to stay at. Feels like home. Very good service by Mr.Saravanan, Mr Ashwin and Mr.Sandeep. Excellent food prepared by Mr. Karuppaiya. Apart from the fixed menu, They prepared dishes upon our request and every item was top-notch. Every person was very polite and served us with delight. Every food has a home style flavour to it. Even if consumed heavily, it gets digested soon. The pool room was excellent. Though there was no Tv in the room there is alot of farm place to look around. Were able to spot many peacocks and peahens here. Enjoyed the stay here and would surely recommend.

We have arrived to the resort on wed afternoon at lunch time they ( Saravanan) welcome us with tender coconut which chargeable each 35 rs and had a south indian lunch with the following items ( sambar, rasam, chow chow kootu, vaazhakai poriyal with stuffed garlic , curd and appalam) all the items are nice with good taste like homemade. We asked for aadhar card and they have taken a snap of it and returned. We had opted for pool room. Room is very spacious with one large bed and small bed (like sofa) . Restroom are both toilet and bathroom attached. Bathroom side is open with shower (hand and top) . Swimming pool located in side the but there is no way from pool to restroom we have to use the room to go/come for pool and restroom. Pool area and bath room top are covered with net to avoid coconut fallen since coconut trees are around. Resort located very near at mountain and river. we have below amenities 1. Volly ball court 2.basket ball court 3. Trampoline 4. Outdoor gym And all indoor games Staffs 1. Saravanan - house keeping manager He is very kind and sharing information about resort and sightseeing location in and around 2. Karuppaih - cook. He prepared all 3 time meal and evening snacks . All food items are nice and like home made. If you have heavy don't it will spoil your stomach every thing will digest. He is having smily face and ask us feedback of food items all the times. Also, it is very important they will prepare some minimum items as per your wish ( ex my son asked for chappati and I asked rice pongal which not there in today's menu list but he prepared for us). 3. Zameer- good looking guy. always have a smile till vacate the resort and he is very helpful . He from Assam and don't tamil but he can understand. 4. Ashwin.- small boy good and silent guy. Please note all the staffs are very helpful and kind to the guests. I recommend this place 100% . Please try to continue provide the same service that you are doing now. Keep it up..
