Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are just about OK, maybe due to the age of the property, with a pool in the center. The service is top-notch, especially at the restaurant, with helpful reminders for dinner orders. The location is picturesque, with outdoor seating under palm trees and a stunning view of Vembanad Lake. The dining could use some improvement, but overall, it's a good resort.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious but not well-maintained, designed in a typical Kerala style architecture. On the bright side, the rooms were clean and had useful amenities like a TV, coffee maker, and minibar fridge. The service was slow at times but admirable, especially the friendly general manager and Lakshmi in the dining area. The location was enchanting, surrounded by beautiful coconut trees, perfect for a relaxing vacation, but the dining experience left much to be desired. Despite these drawbacks, the facilities were decent and added some value to the stay.
I found the hotel to be a delightful stay with comfortable rooms and friendly staff. The location was enchanting, surrounded by beautiful coconut trees, but the dining experience fell a bit short in terms of food quality. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable vacation spot.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfy and mostly in good working order, although average. The cleanliness was impeccable. The breakfasts were a highlight, and the central courtyard with the swimming pool and restaurant added to the overall appeal. While the rooms were not exceptional, their cleanliness and functionality made up for it.
I was impressed by the wooden structure of the clean and spacious rooms, despite the absence of a view due to heat and mosquitoes at night. Having dinner in the room was a necessity. The service was friendly but slow, with a good range of offerings like room service and airport shuttle. The location right by Vembanad lake was mesmerizing, though some more evening activities would be welcome. The dining experience was sumptuous, especially for local fish lovers.
