Cherrapunjee Holiday Resorts Reviews

We are very much satisfied with this resort. Wonderful location.

Best Experience: Great location, hospitality from the family of Mr. Rayen is excellent. He has guided us for small as well as long sight seen perfectly according to our need.

Worst Experience: Food costs are a bit overpriced. Outside the resort children play area is not so good (that area is under construction, probably it\'ll be better after construction)

Beyond our expectations....haven\'t experienced such a personal touch since a long time. Homely yet highly efficient service with more than a handful of intellect. The family owning the hotel are your hosts...they make u feel more like their private guests. And oh boy!! if there is anything to be known about Cherrapunjee, Mr Rayan (our host) knows it and not only that, he is ever eager to share it with you. Going around the central lounge itself you gain lots of knowledge from the elaborately explained wall hangings. And the view from the lawn is just fantastic!! you can see the waterfalls as well as the plains of Bangladesh. Not to forget the lovely butterflies and a host of picture perfect insects you can see first hand as well as the lovely guitar band of the local Khasi boys who entertain yo in the evening with the rain peltering down the tin roof and gusts of clouds entering through the wide open doorway...just heavenly!!! Thanks Mr Rayan for the memorable experience.

Best Experience: 1. Hotel staff waiting with glasses of water as soon as we alighted from the taxi 2. The short trek through the jungle to see the living root bridge 3. The friendly taxi driver arrnged by the hotel for sight seeing 4. The myriad of butterflies flying around 5. The ever smiling Rayan family 6. The amateur guitar band in the evening

wonderful experience.will never feel tired to come here more and more

Worst Experience: fantastic

Away from the maddening crowd it was a cool escape to a cosy,picturesque abode of clouds. A well maintained resort with friendly people at the helm of affairs. An enjoyable stay.

Best Experience: Surrurrounded by caressing cloud , enchanted by aroma of wild flowers, dazed by chirping of known & unknown birds, it is an experience of the life time. The host lit a fire in the afternoon & delighted with strumming of guitar & local ( khasi ) folk songs

Worst Experience: Difficult to reach as the approach road was in bad shape at that time. no covered space for car parking.

Only One Word --\'Wonderfull\'. For those guys who was looking for a lonely location to spend his time.It was a great pleasure for my Parents. It will always capture a Special Place in my mamory. Cherapunjee is best seen in Pre Monsoon as you can view the Spendid Lightnings on Bangladesh Plains. Oct -Nov - Dec will be good , if you want to explore all other , starting from clear view of all the falls,Caving and do the Trakings. Visit www.cherrapunjee.com , which is the site for the Holiday Resort.

Best Experience: Going to the Resort - It is 15 KM from Cherapunjee Market or Shohra Bajar. This 15 KM will take about an hour to reach. Get local driver from Shilong , who know the resort. Otherwise the Drive will be difficult. The resort is almost at 930 mts. Get a Vehicle from Shilong ( Charge : Rs. 1200-2000 for Sumo,based on season). The Resort - It is placed on Top of the Laitkynsew Villege. View of The Bangladesh Plains and the Falls is clear visible from the Resort. Stay at Room No. 1 or 2 ( Delux) as View is incredible. ( I booked 1/2/3 ) . Rates for Delux - 1200 and Standard - 900. They are also building a Dormatory and a conferance room. Good news is No TV at room. Just watch and listen the Nature\'s Sound. wifi can acesssed. Mobile can be outof reach sometime. Activities - a) Sightseeing - Hire a Vehicle ( may charge you 1500-2000 for Sumo) . It has 10 Points. If you are not in fever of visiting all , can skip the ECO parks. Visit the Falls and caves and Ramkrishna Mission(Confirm the Timings before). b) Butterfly watch- This is a Land of Butterflys. In my view , it is second paradise after Darjeeling Forests. c) Traking - I did the Livin Root Bridge track , which was near the Resort. It was a 3 hrs total track. It took me 1 hr to reach at the Bridge ( downstairs) and 2 hrs to climb. But all it was difficult track. But it was a difficult track. While coming , drink water ( but very less in quantity ) and breathe High through Nose ( not by mouth). My guide\'s tips helped me a lot. I have seen Big Red Squireel, which became very less in Number. There are other traks like Double Track Bridge , River Canopying and Natural Swimming Pool Track ( these all are around 6 hrs Track). Food - Taste Local Chiken / Pork dishes . AND if you can \' the Local Dry Fish Chutneys\'. Hospitality : Wonderfull. Feel like your home. And Atlast Just sit and watch the whole evening , outside the resort.
