Customer reviews
We were lucky that the hotel was empty, so we had the sun loungers on the beach and the pool to ourselves 😄
Thanks to the staff for everything❤️
We missed a refrigerator and a TV in the room 😄
If the owner is reading this review, I send my regards to the owner and Dana. It's a shame Dana wasn't open the day we left.
The staff is extremely polite and the services are on point. 10/10 points.
We were fortunate to have the whole place to ourselves due to visiting it during off season. Dinesh is one of the best hosts I've met, and Dananjaya made our stay fantastic!
We arrived fairly earlier than mentioned on the day of check in however the host was super friendly and very receptive to our early arrival, greeted us with a fresh mango juice.
Dinesh the owner/host had made arrangements to upgrade our room to a bigger accommodation with our very own living and dining space which was a great touch. Made us feel very welcomed and relaxed which is what we wanted.
It is a very boutique place with gorgeous view and access to a private beach, had loads of sun loungers for you to use, staff were very attentive and had attention to detail, food was very flavourful and freshly made, the wait times can be a bit longer due to it being freshly made which makes it a little bit more worth the wait as you can taste it in the food.
Overall the experience, cleanliness and service was exactly what we had hoped for and more, if you are looking to book a stay I highly recommend considering Villa Kusum for an easy and relaxing stay away from the busy tourist area.
We'll have to come back and test out the rooms, which must be terrific.
Splendid encounter!
