Location
Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers comfy and well-appointed rooms but falls short with noisy surroundings and distance from the beach. The location is a mix of fantastic beach access and some disturbances.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms offered stunning sea views and were very spacious, though a bit overpriced. They were clean and comfortable despite some technical faults. The service was exceptional, with extremely helpful and polite staff who always had a smile on their face. The hotel's location was fantastic, with guarded beach access and a beachfront restaurant, making it a true paradise. The dining experience was among the best in the city, offering a huge variety of tasty dishes. Overall, a great experience worth the value.
The hotel is a gem with a stunning view of the crocodile bank tree cover and the Bay of Bengal from the bay suite, though the cleanliness could have been better. The service, especially at Pelican Deck, was exceptional, making me want to return and recommend it to anyone. The location offers a heavenly experience with easy access to a private beach, while the dining was a mix of the finest dishes and some disappointments. Overall, it's a place with ups and downs worth noting.
