The hotel to be called a 5 star is a far cry! The setting of the hotel is just amazing however the rooms are in a deplorable condition. The property itself is not anything like how they are portrayed on the website. The complex is about 30 years old. We booked a Beach front Cottage (2nd highest category) and were... More

I would highly recommend the sea view cottages (premium indulgence) for couples looking for a romantic weekend break. Each cottage has its own private balcony with day bed and hammock with bay of bengal view :) The cottage is clean,small (around 350sqft), cozy with open shower....and most important pest free! (but keep windows closed from sunset to avoid mosquitoes coming... More

The Taj Vivanta Fisherman's Cove is a scenic resort with charming cottage -like rooms. Some of them sport long wooden swings and coffee tables in the balcony overlooking the sea. Our bathroom had an attached outdoor shower space cordoned off with a stone wall. It felt like taking a shower in the nature's lap with tall coconut trees and the... More

I stayed here recently for 5 days of business (planned), and then for 3 more days (unplanned) after I injured myself at a local site. For the business part, I was more than happy with the room and services- noting that this is primarily a resort, not a business hotel. Once i sustained an injury and was laid up for... More

As the name suggests its more of a resort so does not cater to the needs of the Business Traveler, having said that the services were truly remarkable

Stayed on business for five nights in April 2012. My room which was in the new conference part was very well fitted out and really nothing was too much trouble. My only criticism was that these rooms were 200 meters from the main buildings and restaurants. There is a shuttle service, but they are not always there. Both the beach... More

This review is primarily for the day out rather stay. To be fair, I must say, experience of people staying there for a day or two may be different. We had a company sponsored family day outing at this resort in March 2011. A large conference hall was booked that could accommodate 40-50 people. When we went there around 9/9.30am,... More
