Colonial attitude by some members of the staff
Dass, the manager, is an exception to this hotel. We had visited this hotel in 2015 when it was amazing with exceptional members of staff. A few members of the staff still have a colonial attitude and give a service accordingly- expect a substandard service if you are a non- white resident like we are. Packed lunch for an excursion with a special dietary need of a vegetarian meal with no garlic, no onion, no egg, no fish and absolutely no meat was requested for 12 people including 2 children. The packed lunch supplied consisted of: Ham sandwich, boiled egg, egg muffin, egg croissant, apple and bottle of water- four items completely opposite to our needs. The head chef was reminded of our needs at least five times and seemed to be very arrogant about his attitude towards us.

Excellent staff - very friendly and accommodating. Location is great, pool is great. Drink selection for all inclusive is ok, but if you request something, they’ll make it. Beds are comfortable, rooms are nice with a balcony.
