"Nice bintage architecture. Food menu showed many items, but most items were unavailable. The free breakfast had the same few underwhelming items everyday. There was no soundproofing for the room. The so called gym had only two cardio exercise machine, but no weights. Would recommend the Radison by Eden beach instead. "

"Best location step away from beach and walking distance to restaurants parks white town. "

"Breakfast was good. They seem terribly short staffed. So there is a loooong wait before you’re served. I feel staff is exhausted too with little or no down time. The same people were seen on duty all day long. Reception staff seems a little lost. For every query it’s - I’ll get back to you & No one gets back. I was surprised to see my villa not cleaned & beds not made after a 5-6 hours outing. When i asked why, i was asked back if I had asked for room cleaning! This was shocking. I have never before ASKED for the room to be cleaned! A trivial problem - there was no Diet Coke on any day at any meal. I had asked for it on day 1. No effort was made to procure it for the next 3 days either. Disappointing. Lastly, the famous South Indian thali was not readily available. This was strange. We were told that you need to book it 24 hours prior. So we did that. Imagine our surprise that when we reach the restaurant absolutely starving after sight seeing & ask for our Thalis ( booked for 8 PM & we reached at 8:15 PM ) everyone looked surprised. The manager wasn’t there. The waiter looked surprised. We were upset. As senior citizens we eat meals at fixed hours. Food was finally served after 9 PM. The resort is beautiful. People come for the ambience & stay. But they’ll lose customers if they don’t get their staff trained afresh. PS. There was absolute RELUCTANCE to give us the hotel car. The staff kept pushing us towards a private taxi service. "

"Save your money and time and avoid this hotel. It’s not worth the price they charge. Outdated, shabby rooms and facilities. The bathroom felt unclean and unkept. Breakfast had minimal options and the food was cold. The WiFI never worked and the staff had no solutions to the issues as they were raised. Honestly this was a disappointing stay."

"Very clean rooms and bathrooms. Professional staff very comfortable stay"

"Lovely staff. Very helpful especially booking taxis. "

"I loved all the colours and the sea breeze. The rooftop terrace was stunning. Loved the whole vibe. Very quiet. I wouldn’t worry with the ocean view, it’s too far away really. That’s not a negative thing I just wouldn’t promote it as having ocean views. I’ll be back for sure. "

"A perfectly charming hotel with the friendliest, most thoughtful staff of any hotel I’ve ever stayed in. We were there five nights in a spacious room with beautiful appointments. The pool is perfect for cooling off in the afternoon. The front desk arranged a sailboat cruise for us and yoga every morning on the roof at 6:30 AM. I can’t wait to come back to this dreamy place a block from the ocean. "
