The resort is constructed in the Rajasthan style, which is a treat. The room was great, very clean, and had a good gym. The pool was very inviting. There was afternoon tea with snacks and Rajasthan music and dancers. It was fabulous. The food at breakfast was very good.

The staff was very friendly and the room was nice and clean. Really worth your money. Quiet place to take some rest. It is better to come with a 2-wheeler, to reach easily Mahabalipuram if this is your goal. I liked it a lot.

The Rooms were clean and decently lit up. The AC and fan for circulation worked nicely considering the warm weather outside. Mr. Kumar was very helpful and was prompt in helping whenever and whatever you need. With my booking of complementary breakfast the quantity was good enough. Close to the beach and close to shore temple gives you access to all places with ease. If you are good with walking you will be able to cover all places by walking too. The property is at the end of a road so parking even though outside is like within the property area. The Facilities in this property are basic needs and hence rated according to that don't expect awesome facilities like a swimming pool, gym, etc like 5* facilities here. Overall a highly recommended budget stay.

Resort is right at beachfront, picturesque location to sit out and enjoy beach view. We chose sea view villa which has stunning sea view worth every penny. Wide range of delicious food. Garden restaurant is the most attractive. Team Raja ji are courteous, felt pampered. Kudos to Kimi ji for her care at the restaurant in tasting different kinds of food.
