First ever visit to India and wanted a hotel right on the beach to relax in - we couldn't have made a better choice having seen others in the area.

Marine Palace is a very well-run business that knows how to manage customers and their bookings. They are one of the few places that is responsive to online requests and make it easy to ensure that you have a booking in place before you arrive.
