My husband and i stayed at this hotel in November 2012 and we had an excellent time, nothing was too much trouble for the staff, the hotel was spotless at all times and everything worked. The only thing that may be a problem for some is that it doesnt have a liquor licence but then you are in an unspoiled... More

I found the aircon to be efficient and not too noisy. The staff, mainly Indian are without exception friendly and helpful. Main restaurant is off the lobby, with a comprehensive a... More

Hotel was neat; tidy and comfortable. Pool and jacuzzi were nice however it closes early around 8.30pm. Staff are friendly but are of no help with regards to advising on local attractions. Breakfast was just above average. BEWARE OF ADDITIONAL TAXES ON YOUR BILL!!!
