"The location of the resort by the lake is the highlight. The open dining hall/restaurant and the view of the long nice looking pool(infinity pool according to them) with flowering trees and greenery around it, extending almost upto or giving a visual effect of stretching to the lake is a visual treat. The cool breeze from lake, flows over the pool and reach us giving a soothing effect while dining at restaurant. Food is good enough. Rooms are comfortable enough. I think it was a value for money stay."
