Kaldan Samudhra Palace

Excellent hotel, very friendly staff, lots of complementary drinks and food (high tea/mini bar), pool is excellent and very clean. Excellent air con, rooms are massive and kept very clean. Food very good and good variety, nice mocktails. Would highly recommend, best 5 star hotel I have stayed at so far. Only very small comment would be that service for food was a little slow at lunch time and the bar seems a bit of a waste of space - I never saw anyone in it, we would have gone in to sit and play cards or something in the evening but we were not allowed as we had a baby. If they made it a seating place for all, I think it would be used more.

The staff and service were wonderful here. The food was enjoyable and the rooms were clean and spacious and beds super-comfortable. Shout-out to several staff members, including Nithin, Rajesh, Tina, Ruby, Vaidegi, Duraiswamy, Bidyut, Buddhadev, Priti, Chef Ahmad, among others. We traveled with my elderly mother-in-law and found some basic things hard to navigate, accessibility-wise. There were stairs and ramps in several places including towards the pool, to get to the rooms, and to go to the beach. These did not have any railings or support for people who might need it--elderly, very young, pregnant women, disabled people, or people who might have injuries. The ramps were not easy to climb up and the 'ramp' from the pathway to the beach to the main hotel area was long, roundabout and the same route for cars and lorries, which is dangerous. In the rooms, the towel racks and hooks were too high to reach for an average Indian height (not sure who these were designed for) and the clothing line over the tub was also hard to reach with plenty of danger to the guest who would try. It's too bad that so much money was spent on the look and little note given to the actual usability. Finally, we arrived at the end of a conference and left as preparations for 2 weddings. This meant that the pathway to the beach was dirty and unattractive as teardown and setup were happening. This definitely detracted from the experience.

We stayed only for a day (5th Dec) and checked out on 6th Dec. There was an event happening that week due to which beach area dining was cordoned off. The room that we stayed in - water was logging in the bath cubicle and at one stage it started to enter the living room! We took a family photo (complimentary provided by Hotel) which was not given to us when we checked out. After following up for two days finally it was sent to my WhatsApp and the original was sent by courier to my home address. It was not a great experience for the price paid!

This hotel was amazing. Beautiful property. And above all, every single staff member treated us like a King and Queen. They went above and beyond to ensure our experience was the best can be.

Clean and luxurious

Fantastic place to chill out

Poor hospitalityat the restaurant, none of them understand English or local language resulted in long wait. Poorly maintained Restroom in the First floor restaurant and bar - sitting in the first floor restaurants felt like being inside a stinky urinal

One of a kind amazing resort! It’s literally a palace!

Overall a good resort to spend with family. Swimming pool is awesome and kids will enjoy a lot.....

Food, ambiance and courtesy was excellent. For vegetarians try jackfruit biryani (seasonal dish) it’s very delicious and sumptuous for 2 people!!!!

Wonderful place!!

It was wonderful .

Amazing hospitality. They charge more to give you more. So it's good that u get what u pay for.

We stayed for a day on weekend. Hotel infrastructure is solid with well build structure ( marbles, granites and rock carvings). But service and entertainment options are not as great. It’s too pricy for what they offer. Photos are solid and stunning. But ROI is bad!!

친절하고 가족들과 행복한 시간을 보냄

Hinweis für alle Allergiker und Personen mit Atemwegserkrankungen - die gesamten Grünanlagen werden regelmäßig (roulierend) mit Insektiziden gespritzt. Es war zu beobachten, dass es in der Folge zu Atemwegsproblemen / Augenjucken bei Gästen kam, auch wenn man sich erst nach Stunden in diese Bereiche begab. Medikamente also nicht vergessen! Ansonsten sehr zu empfehlen! Wunderschön! Wochentags total leer - über viele Stunden ganz allein im Pool. Erst ab Freitags kamen einheimische Gäste / Familien. Es ist kein Badestrand - Unterströmung mit starkem Wellengang. Wandern am Strand - naja… nicht so romantisch, da außerhalb der Anlage nicht aufgeräumt. Aber ist ja klar, den Anspruch darf man nicht haben, wenn man in diese Region fährt.

The Service was really customized and the people made it to become an memorial holiday!
