Everything is tastefully done in this place and we got the most important part of our stay here - peace and solitude. Would love to be... More

The hotel is centrally located and all important places like Aurobindo Ashram, Manakula Vinayagar temple, The beach and all good food joints are within walkable distance. The front desk people and hotel staff are very caring and... More
