LOL … nopes, that is exactly how the name should be spelled. If you stare at the words long enough and try to read it real slow, you’ll be able to pronounce it 😀
Regarding the menu…I tried putting them below the banner, but it looked awful and out of place. Perhaps when I replace the banner someday I will bring the menu down. Thanks for the feedback!
Nadia, seems like you had a wonderfullllllll vacation. The surroundings look so serene and calm. At such a place, don’t u just wish to put down the camera and enjoy the beauty for awhile? I skipped alot of such pretty places in Turkey as, the more I photographed, the more I missed.
Splendid pictures, my Mighty Nido!
It was amazing, Pervisha! We had such a relaxing and lazy weekend where we enjoyed fresh air and peaceful surroundings. Alhumdulillah.
We were there for two nights and three days – for me, this is more than enough time to soak in the place. So I wasn’t crazy about taking pictures asap. But had it been just an overnight stay, I would’ve spent my entire waking hours behind the lens 😀
I agree with the bathroom thing. I mean it should’ve have been better, and food! Aah! nothing puts me off than a below average food being served cold when you are having so much fun otherwise.
Hello, Aiman! Food means so much, specially when you’re staying at a resort and paying heavily for a meal. I guess we were lucky to have befriended the chef the next day 🙂
We’re finally back home after three months! There’s still unpacking to do (though I wish someone would come and do it for me).
Oh my I can understand the newly married woman’s sentiments! Lol food is so important.. and to have just dal… is a little sad.. especially if she is on her honeymoon?! But other wise the place looks really cute and cozy… Ah… I can imagine the ayurvedic treatment must be the main attraction there…
* drifts off and dreaming of an imaginary ayurvedic treatment….*
Wonderful pics! The cottage looks real cute and nice,and so does the interior.Maybe not much people go there and that could explain the lack of variety of food at the restaurant.Couldn’t they have used candles for lighting up the place? Do they attract insects too?
With such conditions I don’t think it’ll be a memorable honeymoon for the newly wed couple though.I can still remember mine 🙂 In Indonesia overseeing a very large lake,which is actually a volcanoe crater! That’s lake Toba! Have you been to Indonesia? It’s really good for taking pics btw 🙂 And the food is amazing! When I went there,I was never left without soup as a side dish,be whatever flavour that is 🙂
I’m glad you’re thinking of continuing the Indian trip next year.Shows how much you enjoyed your stay there 🙂 Thank you for sharing these amazing photos with us!
Well, besides us, there were five more families staying at the resort, two of them Arabs from Oman. So it’s not like they didn’t have guests. It’s just that I feel as if you need to pre-order your meals if you want anything besides dal and vegetable curry. And if this is indeed the case, then the manager should suggest this to the guests when they arrive. Food is an essential part of the package, after all. It makes or breaks a vacation.
I’ve never been to Indonesia, but I’d love to visit someday! How come you never shared those pictures on the blog? 🙂
Can’t help lolling at how you distinguish them to be newly weds.

gusto ko ang mga hirit as in, “Perhaps women aren’t allowed to play with fire? Ayan naman, haha!
Eto pa, “They’re newly-weds, I can tell from the still-dark henna on the lady’s hand and the two dozen glass bangles on her arms. I can also tell from the way the guy looks at her with a silly grin on his face, and is completely attentive whenever she speaks.” Ikaw na, ikaw na ang nakakapansin ng mga gano’n, ahaha.
At heto pa – “food is served cold and there isn’t much variety, unless you meet the cook.”
naman.
well, what can i say, really? the blogger is being honest as in, “Lunch is disappointing.”
hey, who wants to be disappointed with lunch? i don’t. hehe…
gusto ko rin ang sabi mo sa pahuli, “The kabab is tender and juicy, and the fish is flavorful.” it sounds like it came from somebody who has finally come to terms with fate, haha. slight lang.
i hope you enjoyed your stay there. did you guys swim, huh? 🙂 doon po sa amin recently posted..Magkatalikuran

ay, sayang nga! mas maganda sana kung nakalangoy kayo… sayang talaga. pero, parang ang homey noong lugar…
btw, di pa tapos ang dissection. gusto ko ang tuloy na kwento about the couple sa next table. parang pang-short story na talaga, ahaha. as in, parehong-pareho ang naging una nilang lunch sa first couple who learned their lesson a bit late. just a tiny bit late, though…

I seriously thought that you were just messing with your keyboard when typing the title of this post. How do you even pronounce it? 😕
By the way, I think those Links (Menu) looked better under the banner/header image.

I’m missing the lush green vegetation here in UAE :(. Alhumdulillah, it was one of our wonderful tour.

Yep, it was amazing! We have to return to see other parts of Kerala next year.
This is a great review, I love how you make it so personal but also give out useful information.
The location looks natural and peaceful. And the fish looks yummy 😀

Thank you, ‘liya! I highly recommend the ayurvedic spas in India.
Are you back yet? Can’t wait to hear about your latest trip!

Hello, Mrs Umer!
Yep, the ayurvedic treatment plus the mighty river that runs right behind your cottage are the main attractions of the resort 🙂
Wonderful pics! The cottage looks real cute and nice,and so does the interior.Maybe not much people go there and that could explain the lack of variety of food at the restaurant.Couldn’t they have used candles for lighting up the place? Do they attract insects too?

PS: Candle light attracts the insects too.

Hello, Jus! How are you?
Well, I haven’t yet met a guy who’s married for over a year and still 100% attentive to his wife 😀

OMG, San…you’ve literally dissected my review post! LOL
We had a wonderful time, but because it’s the raining season, the water’s rough and therefore swimming is prohibited. Sayang nga eh.
