        Resort is a Old and the infrastructure is lacking . Even though i took executive suite and stayed in 2 different rooms . Each room seemed to have issues in facilities. Either the door cannot be opened , room was dirty . To top it all , when we had gone sight seeing some one has used the wash room and let our pet out of the cage . Complained to the management they did not even bother to investigate. Absolutely not advisable if ur going as a family and anyone can enter .

        Location and Beach are awesome”

        Location and beach were awesome but the rooms are not so good, Food is good and the price for that is also good. Housekeeping is not so good, I rated average. Overall if you don't want to stay in room then its fine enjoy beaches and other places.

        Poor Management ”

        Staff are overloaded with work and so not able to serve all with the same perfection. Management should add more staff to fulfill the guest requirements.

        There must be a specific time for families in pool. It’s always occupied by bachelor’s

        Average quality for the price paid”

        1. Communication: Below par: As neither the front desk personnel , nor the room service and restaurant people speak and understand English properly 2. Stay : Average: For the high price, room and bath room facilities are old and average, but room size, view and balcony a plus 3. Room service : OK but needs to be told/followed up repeatedly 4. Room service bills / restaurant bills are not produced immediately and countersigned by us, which creates confusion as bills are split and other rooms bills mixed up while settling during checkout and we need to spend time identifying what was ordered and what was not ordered 5. Restaurant food and personal attention: Below average; Definitely need good cooks; items available are only few; Manager cant speak English and doesn't have the courtesy to seat us when we were waiting for the seating for dinner; They just didn't care or indifferent because of the language gap; we had to request them to setup the table and take orders 6. Overall - JustOK
