    outdoor shower
    wrinkled bed sheets

    The outdoor shower in the villa's bathroom was a unique and refreshing feature.

    The bed sheets were not ironed, disappointing for the room's presentation.

    attentive staff
    limited food variety

    The staff is attentive, always checking on our

    Comfort. The Premium Heritage Villa was spacious and offered lovely views. The buffet food lacked variety, and the service at the restaurant could be improved, especially during busy hours.

    fun activities
    beautiful gardens
    tasty meals
    limited breakfast

    The resort had fun activities for the kids, like games and a free boat ride, not to mention beautiful gardens that thrilled my grandchild. We especially loved the tasty meals served and enjoyed evening tea with snacks while soaking in the serene atmosphere.

    In my wife's opinion, the breakfast spread could be improved.

    infinity pool

    Luxury, Luxury, Luxury

    I was utterly enchanted by the fine lakeside views that greeted me every morning! The infinity pool was a refreshing oasis where I soaked up the sun and enjoyed serene moments. Each afternoon tea by the river pairs perfectly with the complimentary sunset boat trip!

    100% recommend 🥰🌟

    fantastic food
    bird watching
    game activities
    slow service

    Had a blast with my friends! Enjoyed bird watching from our villa's deck and playing games like Carroms in the evening. The food was fantastic, especially the local dishes. Just a reminder, avoid using electrical appliances in your rooms for safety.

    One hiccup was that our requests for massage appointments took longer than expected, a bit frustrating.

    fresh baked scones
    cooperative staff
    freshly made food
    steep pricing
    inconvenient power cuts

    Fresh baked scones at breakfast were a highlight, pairing perfectly with the beautiful surroundings. The staff is super cooperative and polite. Everything ordered was freshly made, a real gem.

    The restaurant pricing felt a bit steep, especially when the buffet didn't quite meet expectations. Plus, the power cuts were a tad inconvenient, taking away from the experience, but overall, it was still a relaxing getaway.

    gorgeous views
    infinity pool
    limited breakfast options

    This was an unforgettable stay with gorgeous views and a tranquil infinity pool overlooking the lake. The complimentary sunset boat ride was a delightful highlight. One downside was the limited breakfast options compared to the expectations set by photos. Would absolutely return!

    The infinity pool with lake views made my morning swims lovely. The staff was great with their friendly service and kid-friendly meals during my time here.
