Good (enough) but not great -- given the price

The farm resort is nice enough and the people are generally friendly but not entirely competent always. Food and drinks generally took a long time. The playground needed some repair on the swings (simple repair) and it never really got done. The room is fine, simple, but not the luxurious abode advertised on the Destiny web site. Getting to the resort involves 3km of a very very bumpy road -- which need not be so uncomfortable but the vehicles used have absolutely no suspension. A better vehicle would make the ride much easier. The food was good but not great -- the selection was ok. Again not too bad at all but for the resort price, one would expect more on that front. The kids activities have lots of potential but they are stopped after 20-30 mins as they need to staff elsewhere. For example, for the towel origami, the lady just showed the kids what she does with towels but there was no time for the kids to actually try it out themselves. For the pot painting, the kids had to quickly do one layer of paint but there was no time to let the paint dry and do a 2nd layer. For everything, the activities could have really busied the kids; instead, they were finished and unsatisfied and looking for something else to do. ALso, the activities did not always start on time, sometimes they started earlier, sometimes later so we missed some and waited for some. Horseback riding: my daughter is a good horseback rider so I suppose we are picky but the staff have very little idea of keeping horses well and getting lay people to ride. The horseback riding session involved going around a track once for about 2-3 minutes, no more. This is not proper riding -- such a pity with the open spaces and beautiful surroundings but to let people get off the property, one needs horse riders who are fairly professional and know what they are doing with horses...

Amazing vacation experience amidst the refreshingly cool Ooty climate. The farm animals, the adventure activities all were welcomed with curious and gleeful cries from the children. Special mention on the sheep feeding, cow milking, horse grooming-all first time experiences for all of us🥰. Nice fresh calming food, the treks, the play area, the kids special craft and origami activities wooed us parents too😃 Top it off with the clean rooms with no TV , the very pleasant staff, special mention to the very energetic Mr Ainul Haque of the restaurant staff and Ms Radhika of the sheep feeding session. So..Thank you very much Destiny.. we enjoyed a relaxed stay and are returning refreshed. Thank you.

Unforgettable Family Getaway at Destiny Farmstay, Ooty: Nature, Adventure, and Exceptional Hospitality

During our recent family trip to Destiny Farmstay in Ooty, we had a great time. The views were amazing, and the place felt very relaxing. Our room was comfortable, and we really enjoyed the food, which was fresh and tasty. We tried lots of activities like horse riding and ziplining, which were fun for both the kids and adults. The staff, especially the manager Sujith and the reception trainee Rakshita, were very friendly and helpful. Overall, our stay at Destiny Farmstay was just what we needed to unwind and have fun as a family. It’s a great spot if you’re looking to enjoy nature and try some new activities.

Room size and ambience are very good. Due to the time of the year we visited, we couldn't experience greener mountains. Perhaps, late august / September could be a better choice. Staff is friendly but looks not much experienced. The person who was put to us as a guide to the property is just couple of months old in the resort and not much aware of the property and its history. His explanations are not up to the mark. They should have better taken care of this aspect. Moreover, many of the events that they told us got cancelled for one or the other reason. Food is of average quality. They can improve upon the same. Lot of flies we could see in the dining hall area where items are kept. Staff was not caring even after informing them about the same. Food options can be increased upon. Especially, no much options in the deserts and also the bakery section items provided during breakfast are very poor quality. Moreover, no deserts found in the breakfast section such as kesari, etc. Juice was getting over in all the meals that we attended well before the closure time and it was not being replenished. Evening snacks looks like name sake with just one bajji variety and tea. At least, couple of varieties can be provided with some biscuits along with tea. The biscuits supplied in the room are not eatable at all. Overall, it is a nice property for awesome views / weather but with better staff and food, this would take us to next level.
