Reasonable rates and close to the beach
Pros:

1) You have direct access to the beach.
2) The coffee and sandwich was delicious however a bit on the expensive side, hence 2 coffee and 2 chicken sandwiches cost is ₹600.

Cons:

1) Car parking is not available at this resort due to the location, parking is atleast 7 to 8 minutes away. Which is a put off,
2) I also thought we will get a see view room however we got a room located at the back side of the building.
3) We got to the resort for the checkin at 12:15 pm however since the room wasn't ready yet pir check in actually happened at 1:15 pm untill the room was cleaned.
4) The food service is very slow and hence with a waiting time of not less than 30 to 40 min even to get only a cup of coffee.
