We had the pleasure of spending three weeks at this lovely hotel. The staff are absolutely amazing and we would rate them as 5* plus. Nothing was too much trouble and they were a delight to get to know. The accommodation is mostly on two levels and we were lucky enough to have an upper level room. Once again the staff were amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Although rated 5* it was rated 3.5* by TUI. We thought it was a 4* property. The food appeared to have an orientation towards the Indian visitor and this was supported by the numerous curries and very sweet desserts. Having said that there was plenty of choice for the European visitor. The only negative was the absence of any fresh decaffeinated coffee which was the same when we visited North India. Maybe the hotel will rectify this when they carry out later alterations to the dining area facilities. The hotel is set out over many any acres and has direct access to the beach where there are a number of shacks which vi for your business. The hotel grounds are very well laid out and very attractive, and once again all the staff want to communicate with the visitors as they wander through the property. The hotel attracts many wedding events from different religious groups and the events are very colourful and vibrant. Although quite loud the weddings welcome other visitors who wish to stop and engage. As a result of the weddings there can be a large sudden influx of participants who stay for short periods of time. The hotel also allows cooperate events and these can be very loud even though they are held on the lawn area. These we found disturbing. Overall we would thoroughly recommend this hotel so much so that we are returning next year
