This resort offers a unique experience with its beautiful chalets spread across vast gardens and a clean beach nearby. The staff, particularly Anupama and Sameer, made our stay memorable with their attentive service. While the facilities like the pool and activity room were enjoyable, the dining experience at times can take longer than expected. The accommodation was a bit outdated, but overall, it's a tranquil place to unwind and rejuvenate.

I had a wonderful experience at Abad Turtle Beach, which is a lovely resort located over 17 acres with a delightful private beach. The cottages were clean and spacious, and the breakfast spread was absolutely delicious.
