The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious Comfort

My room was spacious and modern, equipped with all the comforts I needed. The wood-glass doors leading to the balcony allowed plenty of natural light to filter in, making the room feel welcoming. It also had a large bathroom with a fantastic shower—the best I experienced during my stay in India. Highly recommend the rooms here!

Breakfast Delights

The breakfast spread was quite impressive, featuring a variety of options from continental to Indian dishes. I especially enjoyed the freshly prepared filter coffee. Although there were some items that could be improved, I never went hungry. The fruit selection was also diverse, allowing me to taste the local flavors.

Excellent Shower Experience

The bathroom was spacious and clean, featuring a great shower that offered powerful water pressure. It was one of the best showers I had encountered during my travels in India. The toiletries provided were nice, and I appreciated the consistent maintenance during my stay.

Lovely Pool Area

The pool area was simply divine! It was well-maintained, with clean water and plenty of comfortable lounge chairs. I enjoyed lounging by the pool, and the staff were attentive, always ready to assist with sun umbrellas or refreshing drinks. It was the perfect spot to relax after a day out.

My stay at this resort was fantastic overall, offering a peaceful environment right by the beautiful beach and surrounded by well-maintained gardens. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, although a bit cramped for a family of four. The staff were exceptionally polite and caring, contributing to a welcoming ambiance. However, I was disappointed with the additional charge for the jacuzzi, and some pool tiles were missing, which caused minor injuries. Ultimately, it was a wonderful experience, but these issues could definitely be improved.
