The resort is picturesque, located along the backwaters near Poovar Beach, offering a beautiful natural setting. The cleanliness and spaciousness of the rooms stood out, and the dining experience was remarkable with a great variety of delicious food. However, access to the beach is not direct and can be cumbersome, and the furniture in the rooms needs some maintenance. Overall, it's a lovely place for a relaxing four-day getaway, especially for exploring nearby attractions.
