It’s a very beautiful, clean, organised and well maintained staying place. Private beach provides an amazing experience, you can collect sea shells and different sea creatures along the sea shore. Hammocks are tied around the beach to chill around. There are provisions for candle night dinners in the sea shore. Staff are very helpful and cooperative. Everywhere camera is installed and working. Security is also very tight. Overall it’s a perfect place to enjoy your vacation. The place is far more beautiful than what’s shown in the photos provided here.
