Wonderful stay close to the beach

excellent servicecomfortable beddirect accessobstructed view

The staff provided excellent service, and they were always available. My room had a comfortable bed and reliable air conditioning. The hotel's direct beach access via a private pathway was very convenient (a real time saver!).

The room's garden view was obstructed by overgrown plants, limiting the natural light.

Dining

The breakfast buffet had a large selection including both continental and local dishes. Fresh dosas were prepared daily. there was a variety of egg dishes available (the omelets were my favorite).
