Rejuvenating Experience

I thoroughly enjoyed the Ayurvedic treatments at the resort. The head and shoulders massage was a fantastic way to unwind, and I later tried the general massage, which was very nice! The serene atmosphere made the experience even more relaxing.

Delicious Authentic Cuisine

The food at the restaurant exceeded my expectations! From the complimentary breakfast to the delectable lunch and dinner options, every meal was good. The standout dish was the karimeen polichathu, which was simply the best!
