Fantastic Stay!

food varietycurry selectionattentive teamtowel designs
I really appreciated the food variety (especially the Sri Lankan curries!). Chef Dalip Singh ensured every dish was to our liking. The serving team, including Ravindra, was attentive. Housekeeping created lovely towel designs daily, a good surprise after returning to our room after a long day.
The poolside service was occasionally a bit slow.
