אין תלונות על כלום

Nous l'aurions apprécié autrement si nous avions pas du rallonger les vacances par obligation (avion annulé Dubai). L'emplacement est idéal, le jardin très bien entretenu. Le responsable serviable a pu nous trouvé 1 taxi sur le pouce pour aller à l'aéroport suite à plusieurs déboires (rien avoir avec lui mais 1 compagnie par laquelle nous avions réservé et qui n'est pas venu à l'heure) Personnel gentil.

Attention dans les chambres jardins il fait très sombre mais bon nous passons pas notre temps dans la chambre

The place was nearly new, the rooms and the view was good. The service staff were also pretty good.

The manager scammed us badly! He asked us to cancel the booking for a technicality, said he'll give me a good deal and then swindled me good.. he charged me almost double for everything. He charged me 1800 rupees for a plate of pineapple that had 8 pieces of pineapple. Then charged me the price of a 1l ice cream tub for 1 scoop of ice cream -- when we asked him about it be started arguing with us. And then played an emotional game with us by saying since we're questioning about it, he'll reduce it from the staff salary. This is definitely not the way to manage the resort. He will run it to the ground if he continues the same way. The owners should be made aware of this.

Mooie lokatie, ideaal voor kite surfen. Het ligt afgelegen en op het resort zelf is s'avonds weing te doen. Ideaal als je voor rust gaat. Mooie kamers/huisjes

Menukaart is klein/beperkt. Niet alles is voorradig. Lokatie is slecht bereikbaar met een auto/ tuktuk. De prijs/ kwaliteits verhouding is niet goed. Erg duur t.o.v hetgeen je krijgt.

Bra och varierade frukostar med bland annat frukt och ägg.

Jag har inget att klaga på.

Le concept très près de la nature. Très bon accueil

The rooms were as described and shown in the pictures.

Communication with staff and owners was difficult. Services that were promised weren’t performed (e.g. exchange of broken lock). The breakfast was only average. The price for the dinner option was not worth the value. This place can only be recommended if your sole purpose is kitesurfing.

Отличное расположение. Качал кайт и стартовал прямо с территории отеля. Отличный персонал, классные бунгало! Не хватало холодильника в номере, но ребята обещали докупить.

The manager, Ian, is very helpful in handling all details and arranging personalized boat tours around the lagoon and to the islands. He also can arrange tuktuk and cars with drivers, which is necessary because the property is remote and a bit difficult to find. Pradeep is a helpful room and kitchen assistant and can also give massages on request. The villas are beautifully decorated in an industrial style and are very comfortable. The lagoon-fronting villas are literally 10 steps from the sea. The meals are off-the-menu. Ian asks what you'd like to eat and then prepares it; your choices aren't limited to a set menu. Overall, the stay was delightful and relaxing despite all of the rain in late November.

The hotel presently doesn't accept credit cards, which was a significant hardship in my case. I love the open-sky bathroom concept, but if you visit during the rainy season, it means you're sitting on the toilet in the rain. On the other hand, taking a shower in the rain is delightful.
