- quiettraveler2016Portland, OR1 contributionThis was a very special Cooking experience! Sundari welcomed me warmly at the beginning of the class and we had such friendly discussions while cooking.
The content of the class was customized to fit my interests.Sundari had me pick 5 things that I wanted to cook. She was quite willing to adapt her recipes so that they were vegan. That meant a lot to me!! The class was well organized. Sundari had planned out the timing for each recipe ahead of time so our time together was very efficiently spent.She had all of the necessary ingredients and utensils ready.I loved being in her lovely kitchen.
I learned so much and all of the food was delicious!
At the end of the class she helped me with Uber and made sure I got back to my AirBNB safely.
Thank you so much Sundari!!Written 12 March 2025This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Felt so relaxed and finally at ease after days of traveling in asia. I got my full body massage. When compared with other spas around the world, this is the best one when it comes to quality. Really i had a great service.
Highly recommended to all of you. 👍👍👍Written 6 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

All the masseuses have been excellent. I prefer the 90-minute Balinese massage and whoever was the masseuse that day, each had a slightly different technic but delivered a very effective massage. I have been battling back pain and these massages have almost made it disappear.
Plus the fact it is sooooo relaxing. Love it!Written 30 April 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Ethan68 contributionsSundari's cooking class is the best cooking class/experience I've ever had.
It's an unforgettable traveling experience and opportunity to connect with an amazing person. From the food, to the cooking expertise, and hospitality it's well worth every penny.
- The Food
The food was phenomenal, flat out. Sundari's Dosas made me weep for the childhood I never had eating them fresh from her pan😭. She taught me how to make Veggie Biryani, pepper rasam soup, Spiced and stir fried Okra (Bendi), veggie dahl, Dosa (including a 2nd type of thick dosa topped with onion and herb), and Masala Chai. She prepared Yogurt raita and Rotis for us beforehand.
- The Cooking Experience
Sundari is a knowledgeable, well-prepared, and passionate cooking teacher. She has been cooking for many years and can answer all your questions on technique and ingredient usage. She loves food and enjoys talking about cuisine outside of India as well. She has family in the USA and can advise on ingredient availability there.
She really cares about curating your experience and was happy to help me customize the menu. The class was a pleasant balance of observing and listening vs active participation. Sundari was happy to let me jump in and out of the cooking work as I wanted. Sundari's kitchen was beautiful and well-stocked. Super organized and professional about everything. Afterwards, she sent me the recipes.
- The Hospitality
It was an honor and pleasure to be a guest of Sundari and her Husband Krishna in their beautiful home. From the second I walked in, I felt comfortable and welcomed. She even created a Ragnoli welcome design on her floor with powder - beautiful. Sundari is easy to talk to and I truly enjoyed spending 6 or so hours with her. After dinner, she went out of her way to show me not only the local grocery market, but her local temple and Kulfi shop. She was happy to take me anywhere I wanted to go in the neighborhood and even helped me with local travel stuff - directions, food recs, getting a local sim card on my phone.
Bottom line, this was a lovely experience I'll remember forever. Sundari sets the standard for being an incredible host and cooking teacher. I'd go back tomorrow if I could!Written 24 April 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I booked them for a few hours on a Saturday and Sunday, Prasanna is highly responsive, his team again very competent and they'll do everything to put you on fish.
Caught a couple of Kings on trolling and had a ton of fun jigging and popping.
The boat is in top condition, well kept and you feel safe the whole trip. Safety is their main concern.
All in all a great experience, at the same level as any other I've had in Florida and around the world.
I'll be back and I'll go out fishing with then again!Written 16 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

He was very knowledgeable, and shared so much valuable and interesting information, which he wove into a narrative that was so easy to understand. He was flexible and adjusted our plan during the day as was necessary. He was also very polite and respectful, and I enjoyed his company immensely. The day was so enjoyable. I would absolutely recommend this guide and this tour, especially to first-time visitors to India, like myself.Written 8 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
