Excellent Service. Being vegetarian, I was very happy to know that owners of the resort are pure vegetarian family.... They take upmost care in providing vegetarian food and services. If you are vegetarian, friends, this is the best place as usually you need to search and find such places. In regard to services, I have found totally satisfied. Staff is efficient and quick in service. The views are amazing and everything you expect from hilly place. The important part is this place is still untouched from hustle bustle of city. The views of Taradevi temple is best part Overall economical and best !!read more
