I had a wonderfully relaxing stay at this resort, located along the serene Vembanad Lake. The spacious rooms offered fantastic views and a calm atmosphere, making it a perfect escape. The staff, especially Mr. Abhijit Balan, were exceptionally warm and attentive, creating a lovely personal touch to our experience. However, the breakfast could use a bit of improvement in terms of replenishing the selection quickly. Overall, the activities available made our stay enjoyable, even if some amenities, like the pool, could be better managed.

Overall, great for families but be prepared for some inconsistencies.
