My experience at Essence Of Nature was a mix of stunning views and frustrating inconveniences. The resort's location on a hill offered breathtaking valley vistas, but the challenging access road made getting there quite an ordeal. The staff was friendly and did their best, but the high costs of food and basic services were hard to overlook.

The cottage-style rooms were charming, with each room opening up to a wide view of the valley. I appreciated the clean interiors and luxurious touches like Kama Ayurveda toiletries.

Nestled atop a hill, Essence Of Nature offers breathtaking views. However, the last few kilometers leading to the resort were a bit treacherous and not for the faint-hearted, especially during rainy seasons.

The meals were decent but expensive. For instance, I paid over 350+ tax for just Maggi, and the limited options were disappointing, particularly if you weren't in a large group to access the buffet.

The resort's ongoing construction indicates future improvements. There are nice activities planned, though not all are available every day, like the bonfire and music.

My stay at Essence Of Nature was quite the experience. The location on top of a hill provided stunning views of the mountains, but reaching there was a challenge with the last few kilometers being rough and steep. While the rooms were well-maintained and comfortable, the dining options were priced high with average taste. Overall, it’s a peaceful retreat best suited for a short stay.
