Relaxing gem!!!
The hotel was excellent. It is an extremely relaxing place where the staff are very attentive and can’t do enough for you. The food is excellent and there is a variety to accommodate all tastes. We stayed in Achenkovil and the room was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this hotel if you are in the area.

The staff is incredible. Property is a bit dated. Dining option is only one but they are excellent Ala Cart. Buffet was lacking. Also Rude guests who I first hand witnessed dipping their hand into an open dishware that was set up for buffet. All and all, great property for any type of Ayurvedic massages. The spa area was excellent and staff was just pure bliss. Cannot say more nice things about the staff from the front desk, spa and groundskeepers. Beautiful views of the backwaters.
