    It was lovely to have a swim in the pool. We also enjoyed a drink in the bar area after our meal. The whole staff team gave us a wonderful send off: singing to us and dancing! Dafroza and Suzy were very helpful and friendly.

    Location was tough to reach. Actually its in the interior. Food was not upto the mark. Rooms were small. Staff was good,. They charge you extra as shown in Booking.com. Reason they give is not justified.
