IndiaGreat architecture. Great location on top of the lake. Wonderful rooms with stunning view. Nice pool to cool of. Built into the landscape, animals really near.
GermanyAmazing Room! The biggest highlight and 90% of what you're spending on! Just brilliant and beautiful! The Bonus is the extremely patient and excellent Hospitality shown by the restaurant. It easily made up for everything else that went wrong with the food there. Also, their Banana Bread is AMAZING! Pick some up and other goodies they have like their Jams and stuff.

Saudi Arabiathe nature and wildlife! the property and building are so beautiful.
United Arab EmiratesBooked a suit as we planned to stay 3 nights. This hotel is not a place to stay only a night. Do stay longer and enjoy and appreciate what it has been reserved!
JapanThe location was wonderful and the views were amazing. The staff was great and super helpful. Nalinda was an excellent support to us. We loved the fact we were visited by monkeys daily near our window.
United Arab EmiratesThe hotel is unarguably a nature immersed gem with vines and plants growing all around the walls with which the monkeys that greet you good morning at your balcony navigates. With wild elephants and the sound of pure nature overlooking a big lake this hotel is purely worth every minute taken to reach. During the night you can see the fireflies flickering around the whole area. The facilities were top notch with beautiful decor and architecture that is mind blowing.
