Outstanding, very hard to fault. Beautiful setting, attentive staff. Delicious food. Lovely swimming pool and beach. Only thing for me is that it is very expensively priced. Stayed in comparable places around the world where you get all inclusive for that price, whereas we had to pay on top. But if you are happy with the price, then the resort is top class.

Property is beautiful, neat and clean. Staff is courteous. Love the location & the views. However service was slow. By the time food got to the table it was cold most of the time. Took long time to get food ordered and sometimes it never came. Took long to get the check also. Food taste also was not so good. Their room keycards still get deactivated if they are kept next to phone which was annoying.

Renin

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very beautiful hotel. Sprawling. With gorgeous views and a great design/architecture, where the rooms are below the reception level, dug into a cliff so the rooms have ocean view. Extremely attentive and polite and helpful staff. 5 stars for the staff and the hotel property. 3 stars for the food. If you are foreigner visiting or residing in India and want to experience life abroad for a weekend, you will likely enjoy the food. But, as a South Indian living abroad, I found the food lacking in authenticity. And, given the property is so big, it is not easy to walk to local restaurants, so you are a bit stuck. Same goes for airport taxi. 6x of what Uber costs is a bit much.
