    A Wonderful Stay

    Rooms are spacious with all amenities and lake view is great. Multiple option of rooms and villas to choose from depending on your budget. Restaurant is available in the resort with awesome quality of food. Service is the best and all staff members are very cooperative. They also arranged for us to play Holi. This resort is built on the side of a hill and there is greenery throughout. We liked the little bit of trekking while going to the restaurant or colosseum. There are multiple activities within the resort like swimming pool, Gym, indoor games, bonfire, swing, amphitheater, spa etc. Overall, it was a wonderful stay.
