My stay at the resort spa was quite an experience. The rooms were spacious with stunning views, making it a comfortable place to relax. The service stood out, especially with how accommodating the staff was, allowing my little one to join in on some activities. However, the dining options were a bit basic and could use more variety, particularly for breakfast. Overall, the atmosphere and amenities were enjoyable, but there's room for improvement in the dining area.

The rooms were not only charming but also provided an inviting scent of lemongrass, which added to the overall ambiance. The service was exceptionally attentive, ensuring we faced no issues throughout our stay. On the downside, while the dining experience promised authentic Kerala cuisine, the options were somewhat limited, especially for vegetarian starters. Overall, it was a delightful retreat, though a bit more variety in dining would be appreciated.
