I had a fantastic experience at the resort, nestled in a tranquil setting away from city chaos. The staff truly went above and beyond to ensure our family felt safe and cared for, especially when my son had a health scare. The food was a delightful highlight, featuring authentic Kerala dishes. However, the amenities, while wonderful, could be enhanced further. Overall, it was a great value for a memorable getaway.

Our stay at the resort was truly enjoyable. The rooms were ultra spacious and impeccably clean, which made for a comfortable experience. I particularly appreciated the beautiful landscaping and artistic touches around the property. The food was tasty, but it's best to order ahead as it takes time to prepare. The swimming pool was a highlight with stunning views. The only downside was the need to wait longer for meals, but overall, it was well worth the price.
