Wonderful and memorable experience!
Incredible stay! We loved the remote mountain location surrounded by nature - and the Trogon has been thoughtfully designed to enjoy and integrate perfectly with the surroundings. The team have a warm, but laid back style which made us feel very at home - and they provided a very thoughtful and tailored experience. We learnt so much about the flora, fauna and history of the area while enjoying time to unplug and relax in the evenings. The food was also expertly cooked - with most of the ingredients sourced from the organic garden. A wonderful and memorable stay - highly recommend!

Amazing place and people, would recommend in a heartbeat!
The place is beautiful and peaceful. We could relax and enjoy the scenery while the kids roamed free (isolated, no cars around, very little to worry about and we couldn’t the boys play - 3 and 5 year old)
Dhanu and Hari were amazing hosts. Dhanu is a splendid cook, and food was simply delicious and tailored to both us and our two young kids. And both were always available to take us on adventures, and help us spot the local wildlife (even had a little night tour after diner to spot some nocturnal wild life with the kids)
I could have easily stayed a lot longer!
Accomodation itself is great value for money.
The food and excursions were a little bit more expensive thank we originally thought or expected (since the accomodation itself is actually really good value for money) but they were great. Depending on your budget just make sure to ask for the cost before heading out just so you don’t get a surprise :)

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm, peaceful, and beautiful environment.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly Recommended
I had a wonderful experience at The Trogon Knuckles. The location is absolutely beautiful, calm, and peaceful, making it a perfect place to escape from the busy city environment.
🌿 Location: The natural surroundings are stunning and very peaceful. Its location close to the Knuckles Forest area makes it a great choice for anyone looking for a quiet nature getaway.
🍽️ Food: The food was good. However, I definitely recommend discussing your food preferences and requirements with the hotel team in advance. They are very helpful and will do their best to arrange what you need.
🛏️ Rooms: The rooms are spacious and comfortable. I really liked how the room design matches the hotel's overall concept and the surrounding natural environment.
📱 Mobile Signal & Internet: Mobile signal is quite poor in this area, mainly because the hotel is very close to the Knuckles Forest region. However, the hotel provides internet access in the dining and meeting areas, and Wi-Fi facilities are expected to be available in the rooms soon.
🥾 For hiking and nature lovers: If you are planning to hike or explore the Knuckles mountain area, this is an excellent place to stay. The team has valuable experience with the local wildlife, environment, and walking trails, and they can help arrange suitable trails and nature experiences.
💡 My Recommendation: If you are planning to visit, I strongly recommend contacting The Trogon Knuckles through WhatsApp before your trip and discussing all your requirements and the facilities you need. The team is very helpful and will try their best to arrange everything for you.
🌄 Overall: I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a calm, peaceful, and beautiful environment surrounded by nature. If peace and nature are what you're looking for, this is the place! ❤️🌿
The food was tasty and well prepared, with a good selection of meal options. The pricing is on the higher side, which is understandable given the location and the overall experience. I would recommend discussing your meal preferences and requirements with the hotel team in advance so they can arrange the best options for you.

Tranquil stay surrounded by nature
Staying here felt like being in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by nature. It was quiet and peaceful, with a lovely outdoor area on the property to sit and admire the view over the mountains. The room was full of rustic charm and the outlook from the bathroom was so green and pretty. The staff were friendly and the host speaks perfect English. Wifi was limited to the dining area but worked well. You can go for a self-guided walk around the trails in the tea plantation nearby, or you can arrange a guided hiking tour to waterfalls etc (allow at least 4-5hours depending on which hike you want to do).
Just note that you can't drive a car all the way to the property, you need to leave it in a field at the bottom of the hill and they provide a lift in a 4wd ute to get up the hill (takes about 5-10mins).
There are no other restaurants or food options around that I could see. The lunch menu had around 3 or 4 options that were 15USD each. Dinner was a three course meal for 20USD per serve, with around 4 options for the main. It was tasty, but by far the most expensive meal we had on our trip.

Die Lage ist super abgelegen, dass muss einem klar sein, aber dafür sind wir auch gekommen. Hoch in den Bergen gelegen und direkt an den Wanderrouten.
Die Nähe zur Natur der gesamten Anlage ist klasse.
Das Essen ist ebenfalls super lecker und wird immer frisch zubereitet.
Die Gastgeber sind super hilfreich und haben uns super Tipps für den Rest der Reise gegeben und sogar ein Shirt nachgeschickt.
Die geführten Wanderungen sind nicht günstig. Trotz schlechtem Wetter haben wir die Tour aber durchgezogen.
