“Excellent staff lead by a very competent manager who made an effort to speak to guests at breakfast. It gave an opportunity to voice any outstanding issues in person( not that there was any )
Fine breakfast esp Indian food. Appam (indian pancake ) was made on request.
Rooms were very clean well looked after . Every evening the room was turned over , mosquito coils set up and water and a bottle of local drink provided.
The ambience was of a rural setting with soft lighting to guide us at night to our cottages. Tastefully decorated to a high standard.
The landscaping was very appealing. Fine clean clear blue open air swimming pool that was just right for cooling off and swimming. The waiter service was infallible . Very polite English speaking staff made it all the more delightful.
Very good avurvedic treatment with in house doctor for advise.
In house tailor who can complete a shirt in lass than 24 hrs.
Security was good day and night as I found out when walking alone by the beach.
Crows are regular visitors at breakfast time and by the swimming pool. But well kept out the guests tables by a very astute guard who used a special technique to scare them away without any harm .
The sandy beach is very hot to sun bathe . The sea water is a little unclear but warm and safe to swim. Sometimes the waves can be bigger than usual and hotel uses coloured flags to inform the safety condition of sea to guests. A few go to swim as most stay by the pool. This is a hotel worth a visit . Recommend at least a week for peace and sanity !
Room Tip: Facing the sea single cottage”
