The resort staff services were perfect! From from desk to cleaners to security to waiters etc. were all very good. The facilities were a bit old. Inhouse Wifi connection was poor. Only 1 restaurant for you throughout your stay. But the food were delicious! There is no way to walk out of the resort area. Basically you are confined within the resort compound. The management & staff took very great efforts to preserve and enhance the environment and natural eco system. Well done to the team!!
