OK but be prepared to pay by the nose
Pros:

The room was fine. The pool guys were willing to help with towels etc but a bit slow with meals and drinks service.

Cons:

The prices were ridiculously inflated (even by UK standards - never mind SE standards). We contracted tummy bugs (not attributed to hotel) therefore ate no breakfast, minimal lunch, some buffet stuff at night. But SO expensive. I could have flown from the UK to a pleasant Euro location on an AI/Breakfast deal for a better price.

Fantastic team! Good food! The housekeeping and manpower could be improved.
Pros:

The staffs at the resort are extremely receptive, starting from the check in Ms Prabilari chyne, She was prompt in her response with gentle smile always on her face and politeness her voice. The Spa manager Mr. Arun and the chef Mr. Ansari took absolute care being very accommodative to our needs.

Cons:

The value for the cottage could’ve been more rationalized as the room is very small. The pillows have become old and not fit for use.
