This is the first time I’ve written a review for Trip advisor, but thought that our recent experience whilst holidaying in India warranted the effort. We have just completed (April 2013) a 2 week tour of India’s expanded Golden Triangle combined with a few nights relaxation in Kerala and a day tour of Mumbai – staying at: Delhi - The... More

It was one of my most memorable holiday's ever! Their impeccable customer service and their attention to detail was VERY MUCH appreciated by all of us, in our group. The villas are incredibly elegant and absolutely magnificent...you really got to see it for yourself. - I will definitely be back! Best wishes and thank you for the best time ever!

Hell painted as heaven?. I do not understand how on earth the authorities let them continue to function as advertised as a 5 star resort. I was told they have been in business for over a year. Now that I have a tripadvisor account and read all the other not-so-postive reviews, and I know I will be repeating most of... More

My husband and I travelled to Carnoustie Beach Resort last month and it was definitely one of our best, most unforgettable holidays. We were overwhelmed by the beauty of the resort. The villas were beautifully laid out and no two cottages looked into each other. The greenery was refreshing and unimaginable. The photographs on the website do not do justice... More

A well located resort, tucked away near Kochi. The pool cottages are great, excellent F&B staff, quality of food is very good. Nice beach, with virtually no one on it. On the flip side, the resort is still under development, they still have to get a liquor license and there is a glaring absence of any activities or in house... More

Hugely disappointing...BEWARE : There are some positives to this hotel but they are heavily outweighed by the negatives. It boasts of being a ‘Beach Resort’ but when we were there the small, wave-battered beach – the other side of a road and behind two fences, one manned by a security guard – was ‘closed’ and a banner erected by local...
