Tree House Cottage By Survottam Resort Rishikesh India

Escape to Paradise: Rishikesh's Unbelievable Treetop Cottage

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving HEADFIRST into the treetop wonderland that is Escape to Paradise: Rishikesh's Unbelievable Treetop Cottage! Get ready for a review that's less brochure and more… well, me gushing (and maybe griping a little) about it.

First off, let’s be real, accessibility matters. I'm not a wheelchair user, but I appreciate those that keep in mind the ones who are. The listing mentions "facilities for disabled guests." Okay… that's vague. Need more specifics, people! Clear pathways, elevators, accessible bathrooms… a shout-out to specifics in the details would be greatly appreciated here.

Now, let's get to the good stuff!

The Vibes: The listing calls it "Unbelievable." And honestly? They're not kidding. Imagine waking up in a treehouse – a luxurious treehouse. You're not just near the trees, you're practically in them. It's a whole other level of "getting away from it all." Just the sheer idea of it is enough to make you sigh dramatically, right?

What Makes it Tick (and What Doesn't!)

Okay, down to brass tacks. Let's talk about the things that made me want to chuck my phone into the forest (in a good way) and the things that made me side-eye a little.

The Tech Stuff (Because, Adulting):
- Internet: Okay, this is crucial. They brag about Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! and list Internet [LAN] and Internet services. Fine, that promises the basics. The real test? Did it actually work? This is the age of doomscrolling. If you’re like me, you've got a news addiction. I can't be cut off from the world completely, so the fact that the Wi-Fi was decent was truly a lifesaver. Didn't have the fastest internet but it certainly did the trick.
Keeping it Clean (and Safeish?): The list throws out a LOT of "safety" buzzwords: Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hand sanitizer, Rooms sanitized between stays, Staff trained in safety protocol. I'm always skeptical, but here, I felt reassured. The place honestly felt clean. But, and this is a big but… I never saw any of this sanitizing stuff in action. You can't always see the work, but it’s easier to trust when you can watch someone wiping down surfaces.
Dining Delights and… Dilemmas:
- The Restaurants are key! They promise all sorts of deliciousness, especially with Asian cuisine in restaurant, International cuisine in restaurant, and Vegetarian restaurant options. A la carte in restaurant, a Buffet in restaurant. Okay, my stomach is already rumbling. The food? Seriously good. Fresh, flavorful. I swear, the chefs were like culinary wizards.
- BUT, the Happy hour? Meh, it definitely wasn’t as happy as it should be. The drinks were decent, nothing to write home about, and the atmosphere was… fine. Could have been better.
- I also saw they include Room service [24-hour], which is a HUGE win. Sometimes you just don't want to leave your little treetop haven, you know?
Things to Do… and Chill: This place is all about relaxation and adventure rolled into one. They list a ton of options:
- Spa Vibes: Body scrub, Body wrap, Massage, Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom. The spa? Oh.Em.Gee. I booked a massage (because, why not?) and it was pure bliss. The therapist was amazing, and the setting… chef's kiss. I may or may not have almost fallen asleep, dreaming of all the delicious food I was going to eat later.
- Pool with a View: The pool? Stunning. Seriously, just the view alone made it worth it. I spent a day just floating, staring at the scenery, and wondering how I'd managed to land myself in such an awesome place.
- Fitness Frenzy?: Fitness center, Gym/fitness. Okay, confession time: I peeked in the gym. It looked… functional? I was more interested in the spa, truth be told.
- Things you might wanna do, but isn't available: Bicycle parking is listed. Where the heck are you going to ride a bike? You're in the trees!
The Practicalities:
- Air conditioning (thank GOD).
- Daily housekeeping - my room was spotless. Seriously, they were on it!
- Luggage storage
- Concierge Service
- Safety deposit boxes - good for piece of mind.
In Your Room
- Coffee/tea maker, and complimentary tea: because every morning needs a caffeine boost!
- Bathrobes and slippers: Because luxury!
- Bathtub and Separate shower/bathtub: Because sometimes, you just need a good soak, and a hot shower is a must.
- The bed was absolutely divine.

The "Meh" Bits:

I really wish the listing was more detailed about the accessibility.
Happy Hour. The drinks weren’t that great. Need a little more buzz, people!

The Emotional Verdict:

Look, honestly? This place is magical. It's the kind of place you go to escape reality and reconnect with yourself. Yes, there were a few minor hiccups, but overall, it was an incredible experience. I left feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and planning my return trip already. Seriously, book this place. Treat yourself! Run away to the trees! You deserve it!

(Rambling, Stream-of-Consciousness Edition):

Okay, so I'm sitting here, days later, and I'm still thinking about that massage. Seriously, I'm tempted to book a flight just to go back for another one. It was that good. The therapist was so skilled, the room smelled divine, and the whole experience just melted away all my stress. And the view from the pool… I could almost be convinced that the perfect life is just perpetually floating in that pool, with a cocktail in hand, forever. Okay, maybe not forever, but for at least a week or two. Then, the food, the food, the food! I'm craving that salad with the tangy dressing right now. Damn.

Okay, buckle up, buttercups! Here's my attempt at a Rishikesh itinerary at the Tree House Cottage, Survottam Resort… Prepare for a bumpy ride! This is going to be less "polished brochure" and more "slightly crazed traveler's diary."

DAY 1: Arrival and the OH MY GOD, IT'S SO PRETTY Factor

8:00 AM: Ugh. That Delhi airport. Let's just say the security line made me question everything I've ever done in life. Finally escaping, breathing in the actual air, and into a car, winding roads, and… THEN THE HILLS! Seriously, if I get to yell anything, it's that I'm loving the views and the scenery.
1:00 PM: Arrive at Survottam Resort. And… WOAH. The Tree House Cottage. Okay, maybe the pictures didn't do it justice. It's like a childhood dream, but with a really comfy bed. The balcony… I swear, it's hugging the trees. I’m already plotting how to spend the next several years living here.
1:30 PM: Lunch. Standard Indian fare. Delicious, as always. But I’m too distracted by the vibe of the place to really concentrate on the food. I’m pretty sure I was grinning like an idiot the whole time.
3:00 PM: Exploring the resort. Okay, I tried to be all “zen” and calm, but I’m pretty much a hyperactive puppy, wanting to sniff EVERYTHING. Find the pool. YES. Discover a little hiking trail. Even BETTER. The air is crisp, the birds are singing (or squawking, who am I to judge?), and I'm already feeling the city stress just melt away.
6:00 PM: Tea on the balcony. Sunset. Pure bliss. Okay, maybe this "retreat" thing isn't complete torture, haha. I have my first Chai, and I'm already in love.
7:30 PM: Dinner. I get a little bit of a stomach problem. I'm hoping it's just the change of pace. The food is again amazing, but then I have a mini-meltdown. I miss my cat back home.
9:00 PM: Lights out. Finally, sleep. If those monkeys don't wake me up in the morning, I'll be shocked.

DAY 2: River, Yoga, and the Quest for Inner Peace (Spoiler: Still Searching)

7:00 AM: Wake, mostly because of the monkeys, and I hear a strange sound, a low hum, that wakes me up. I'm not sure what it is, but it's probably the first thing I've heard in months. It's so peaceful.
7:30 AM: Yoga class. This is it, right? This is where I become a calm, enlightened soul. Turns out, my inner peace is apparently as flexible as a rusty tin can. I may have fallen over. More than once. But the instructor was lovely. She’s got me feeling like I can breathe and appreciate everything around me. And the views! Again, breathtaking.
9:00 AM: Breakfast. A feast of fruit, grains, and other healthy things. I'm trying to be good, but I'm eyeing the pancakes.
10:00 AM: Rafting. I'm scared to death of water, but I'm also determined to conquer that fear. The rapids were… intense! So much adrenaline! There was screaming, paddling, and a whole lot of laughter with my new friends. Oh, I also almost fell in. Great way to bond.
2:00 PM: Back at the resort. Lunch. I think my arms are still shaking from the river. I have a massage on my schedule. This is what paradise is like.
3:00 PM: Massage time. This was supposed to be a relaxing experience, right? I have a bit of a sunburn. And there's this tiny, persistent mosquito. And the massage itself… let's just say the therapist could probably crack walnuts with her hands. I was laughing and tense at the same time.
5:00 PM: More tea on the balcony, with actual peace, after finally relaxing from the massage, and enjoying the sunset again.
6:00 PM: Dinner. Amazing. And I'm still feeling pretty good. I'm finally adjusting to the time change and the pace.
7:30 PM: Trying to meditate. I'm failing miserably. My brain is a hamster on a wheel. But hey, at least I tried, right?

DAY 3: Temples, Trails, and the Realization That Travel is MESSY

8:00 AM: Wake up. Finally, I'm beginning to acclimate! The monkeys are still a bit noisy.
9:00 AM: Breakfast. Yum. I'm getting addicted to this place.
10:00 AM: Day Trip to Rishikesh. I'm expecting it to be some sort of epic spiritual awakening place. The temples were beautiful, the energy was palpable. I got blessed by a priest (I think?) and walked across the Lakshman Jhula bridge. The bridge was shaky. And crowded. And I’m pretty sure I held my breath the entire time. I nearly threw up, lol.
1:00 PM: Lunch in Rishikesh. Okay, it was the worst food. We went to some place the guide recommended. But, I swear, the food gave me heartburn. I’m still trying to figure out if it was the street food.
2:00 PM: Back at the resort. Time for the hike I was excited for. The air is clean. I can breathe! But I got lost on a trail. It wasn’t a major disaster, but I did end up bushwhacking through a thorny patch. My legs look like I lost a fight with a cat. But I made it back!
5:00 PM: Yoga. This time I will do it right! And I do. Amazing.
6:00 PM: Dinner. The food is great. I finally stop trying to be zen. I just eat. I enjoy the sound of the rain, the sounds of the trees, the sounds of my fellow guests.
7:30 PM: Packing. Reality hits. Leaving tomorrow. I'm not ready. I don't want to leave this place. I'm seriously considering just abandoning my life and becoming a tree-hugger.
9:00 PM: Meditate… and feel nothing. Ah, well. Maybe inner peace isn't in the itinerary.

DAY 4: Departure - Heart Full of Memories, Luggage Full of Thorns

8:00 AM: Last breakfast. I'm gonna miss this place. The view is more beautiful than ever.
9:00 AM: One last walk around the resort, soaking it all in. Saying goodbye to that gorgeous treehouse.
10:00 AM: Check out and leave.
1:00 PM: Back in Delhi. The airport is the same chaotic beast as before. My legs itch. My backpack is still full of the thorns I got earlier. But… you know what? I’m happy. I'm tired. I'm a little bit bruised. And I’m already planning my return. Rishikesh, you magnificent mess, you.

Tree House Cottage By Survottam Resort Rishikesh India

Okay, so, actually what is this treetop cottage situation in Rishikesh all about? Like, is it a treehouse treehouse?

Alright, lemme tell you, “treetop cottage” sounds glamorous, right? Visions of Tarzan swinging in and handing you a mango smoothie. (I wish!) It’s... well, it's suspended. It's *up there*. Not *inside* a tree, not technically a treehouse in the Swiss Family Robinson sense. Think more like… a really fancy, elevated cabin. Still, the views are absolutely bananas. You wake up to the Ganga, whispering its ancient secrets, and the Himalayas looking all majestic and judging. My first morning? I actually teared up a little. Don’t judge. Himalayan air makes you soft. And the sunrise? Forget Pinterest, it's way better IRL. So not a treehouse, exactly, but close enough for government work... and for an experience you'll *never* forget.

How do you get to this magical, elevated hideaway? Are we talking a rickety rope ladder and a prayer?

Okay, imagine this: my suitcase, which I *thought* was prepared for a serene retreat, was *not* prepared for the initial climb. It's not a super-long trek, mind you, but there's a bit of a… incline. And stairs. Lots of stairs. My thighs were screaming by the time I reached the top. (Note to self: pack lighter next time. And maybe start doing squats. Or, you know, just accept the suffering.) But the climb? Totally worth it. It's part of the charm, the gateway to the "escape." Plus, the staff were amazing, helping with luggage and giving encouraging smiles as you huff and puff. You're rewarded with views that make you forget the lactic acid burn… eventually. The trek back down? Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Unless you overdid it on the chai, of course… which I definitely did.

What's the vibe like actually? Because "escape to paradise" sounds… well, cheesy. Is it truly chill?

"Cheesy" is a legit concern. I went in skeptical, I'll admit. But the vibe? Unexpectedly *real*. It’s not the manicured, Instagram-perfect vibe you sometimes get. Think more… rustic, spiritual, and genuinely laid-back. There’s a simple, almost monastic feel to the place. Comforting, really. I spent a whole afternoon just reading on the balcony, listening to the river, and feeling… at peace. (That kinda never happens in my life, so yeah, it was a big deal.) There are yoga mats (duh, it's Rishikesh), but they also have comfy hammocks – essential for post-yoga relaxation. It’s the kind of place where you can actually *unplug*, like properly unplug. My phone? Mostly useless, and frankly, a non-issue. Pure bliss. Seriously, the antithesis of 'cheesy'.

Food? Don't tell me I'm stuck with sad, health-nut food. What's the deal?

Okay, deep breath. The food. Right. Okay, so it *is* healthy-ish, let's be honest. You're in Rishikesh. You can't expect triple cheeseburgers. BUT… the good news is, it’s *deliciously* healthy-ish. Mostly vegetarian, with fresh ingredients, and flavours that will blow your mind. (Trust me, coming from a non-veggie person, that's saying something). The breakfasts… oh, the breakfasts. Fresh fruit, homemade granola, fluffy pancakes… washed down with the strongest, most delicious chai you'll ever experience. They also do these amazing thalis for dinner, a feast of local delicacies. Now, my confession? I accidentally ordered the spiciest dish one night. My mouth was on fire, tears were streaming, and I’m pretty sure I hallucinated a dancing elephant. But even that was part of the experience. (Just… order something mild, okay?)

Are there any downsides? Anything I should be prepared for, like, you know, rogue monkeys or giant spiders?

Okay, the honest truth? Yes. There are a few… 'quirks'. The monkeys? Present. They're not aggressive, but they *will* try to steal your snacks if you're not careful. (I saw one swipe a banana right out of a guy’s hand during breakfast – pure comedy gold, tbh.) The Wi-Fi? Spotty. Embrace the digital detox. There's also the occasional… mosquito. (Bring bug spray. Trust me.) And, yes, the stairs. Again, the stairs. My calves were definitely complaining. But honestly? These are minor inconveniences. Like a tiny price to pay for paradise. And the memories... the memories are worth every single mosquito bite, every stair climbed, every stolen banana.

Okay, you've sold me. But what about the noise? Is it peaceful, or are you constantly listening to construction and honking?

The noise! Ah, this is a BIG one. Rishikesh, in general, is far from silent. There’s traffic, there are dogs barking, there are prayers being sung… it's alive! But up in the trees? It's remarkably peaceful. The sounds of the river drown out most of the craziness below. You hear the birds, the wind rustling through the leaves, and (most importantly) the *absence* of constant city noise. It's soothing. Calming. And the best part? When you wake up at sunrise, you can hear the temple bells in the distance. It’s a sound that seeps into your soul. It made me feel connected to something bigger than myself. I’m not even religious, and it gave me goosebumps.

Is it a romantic getaway kind of vibe? I'm trying to plan a special trip...

Oh, *yes*. Absolutely. Romantic getaway? Total winner. Imagine this: you and your partner, sharing a balcony overlooking the Ganga at sunset. (Bring some wine, they're probably doesn't sell much alcohol) The vibe is intimate, magical, and begging for hand-holding, starry-eyed gazing, and whispered confessions. Think: cozy blankets, crackling fire (if it gets chilly – it does, at night!), and the intoxicating aroma of incense. In the daytime, you could meditate together, do yoga together, or just... be together. It's a place that invites connection. I saw a couple there, celebrating a milestone anniversary. They looked like they could get lost there forever. And honestly? I kind of envied them. It is the perfect place to find some serious romance.

So, what about the actual cottage itself? Is it clean? Pest-free? (I'm kinda squeamish, tbh…)

Alright, the cottage itself. *Deep breath.* Okay, it's not a five-star hotel, let's be clear. But it's cleanPremium Stay Search
