Food was great, very friendly and helpful staff!!would recommend it to honeymooners, couples or even families
I Would like to suggest to have more entertainment.

The place is great, good room size, outdoors, indoors all good. There's a large area around to take a walk. The food however, was not favorable. They could have added variety. The staff could have been a little smiling.

We generally cater for about ten to fifteen nationalities a day and we do offer a verity of food / choices in our buffets to cater to all our valued guests. However i see that you have got some concerns on the buffet spread, we will certainly look to improve more.

We arrived on 28th of August n before arriving v had no idea abt the place. But at a glimpse v realized that it's truely a paradise. It's very true to its name n the word "paradise" is the exact word to describe the place. The staff is really helpful n friendly n v r so happy that v got an upgrade to a garden suite from the hotel itself. Its truely comfortable n a nice hideout. The environment is so serene, calm n green with trees all around. One should really come n enjoy the freshness of the breeze here. Will definetely visit again with the whole family...

Room tip: Try a suite with a jacuzzi.....

My family of my wife, 2 kids, parents n brother stayed one night.
The location is a bit remote , which I suppose is good. The access road is a bit rough.
We arrived in the evening, check in was smooth and we were shown to our rooms. The rooms were well maintained.
The couple of things that can be improved- we stayed in rooms 702, 704, 706- no clothes hook in the bathroom n no soap tray in shower area.
The staff was great n service was good otherwise. Could have stayed longer. Will recommend.
