IndiaOur stay here was very good. Even during COVID times, the service was excellent and everything was clean, sanitized, and on the spot. The room was comfortable, clean, cozy, and well maintained. Only 1 restaurant was open but the food and drinks were very good. We missed the usual huge variety at breakfast but it was still a big affair. Overall, we had a great time here.
IndiaThe staff was extremely helpful from the time we got out of the car. Nice, clean spacious rooms. The golf course, greenery, and the beach access was wonderful. The beach also was good.
