The price for a night is high but for good reasons. The staff is very courteous and attentive. The whole hotel is clean and nicely decorated. We had an unfortunate incident in our room and we didn't want to make a fuzz about it but the hotel staff were extremely apologetic and did all they could to make us feel comfortable by changing our room (which we did not expect). We truly loved the breakfast as well! So many different options and a nice selection of fruits were included. Dining in the hotel is quite pricey but expected of the place you are staying in. I was especially impressed that during the hi-tea session, my dietary requirements were filled without questions. You can see that they want all of the guests to have a good snack and not to be left out. Also, the hi-tea session had really-really amazing food options in general. I would say it was lavish, exactly as the hotel itself. If you want to enjoy the sea and the waves, the hotel has a little strip of beach that is being constantly cleaned by the staff. Just sit down, relax and look into the abyss of nature.

The staff was very friendly and the room was nice and clean. Really worth your money. Quiet place to take some rest. It is better to come with a 2-wheeler, to reach easily Mahabalipuram if this is your goal. I liked it a lot.

The bungalows with rooms looked great both inside and outside. Our room was close to beach and we could hear the waves. Both pools perfect place to relax. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Gym was really well equipped, but the spa also offered high quality services, and actually very decently priced. Hotel is close to all local temples so one can easily explore everything. We really enjoyed our stay

    Resort is right at beachfront, picturesque location to sit out and enjoy beach view. We chose sea view villa which has stunning sea view worth every penny. Wide range of delicious food. Garden restaurant is the most attractive. Team Raja ji are courteous, felt pampered. Kudos to Kimi ji for her care at the restaurant in tasting different kinds of food.
