My stay at The Last Shola was nothing short of magical! The serene location and amazing views made it feel like a true escape into nature. The food reminded me of home, especially the veg pongal and chicken biryani, but I wished there were more variety in the evening snacks. Overall, it was a refreshing experience that I hope to repeat soon!
