Pros:

The location, the in room dining, the comfort are all good.

Cons:

Just little minor things like the TV remote not working. The phone needed a replacement as it wasn't working and the AC was little weaker.

A perfect family getaway with great hospitality, amazing food and a beautiful private beach.
Pros:

Our 2N3D stay at Taj Fisherman's Cove Resort & Spa with my wife and 7-year-old kid was truly a wonderful experience. The overall property is beautiful and spread across a massive 42 acres, which gives it a very relaxing and luxurious feel.

One of the best parts was the buggy service available across the property, making it very convenient and enjoyable to move around with family and kids. The room was of decent size, very comfortable, and perfect for a family stay.

The resort also has a private beach, and it was absolutely clean and very well maintained. There were plenty of activities for kids and families — we especially enjoyed kite flying, making sand castles, painting, feeding the fishes, playing a game of pool and even some fun volleyball by the beach.

The pool is also of a very good size, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing there along with some drinks at the pool bar.

The food was excellent throughout our stay, but what really stood out was the exceptional hospitality by Chef John and Chef Gayo. They took special care of us during breakfast, prepared special dishes exactly according to our preferences, and even introduced us to some of their personal favorites. They lovingly served the dishes and explained the best way to enjoy them, which made the entire experience feel very warm, personal, and memorable.

Overall, it was a memorable and refreshing family getaway with amazing hospitality, great food, and a perfect mix of relaxation and activities. Highly recommended for families looking for a luxurious beachside stay.

Below my expectations
Pros:

Location: close proximity to the beach

Cons:

One of the villa that we rented had the bathtub leaking and flooded the whole bathroom, though the team tried to fix it. It happened again and the bathroom was barely usable.

Checkin experience was worst. I have been kept waiting for 2 hour to checkin and they gave a room which is not cleaned and again changed room after forth and back discussion
