Pros: Villa Shanti is a class yet cozy hotel that's decorated à la traditional India meets modern charm fusion, with attention to detail. The staff is caring and welcoming, especially our waiter Diwakar who never failed to be helpful and smiling throughout our 5-night stay. He definitely made us feel at home. The food was delicious and beautifully presented - my partner and I ate there three out of five dinners despite the multiple excellent restaurants surrounding our hotel. We also had a nice massage that contributed to our relaxing and fun stay. We love this hotel and absolutely recommend it to those who appreciate art, cozy accommodation, attentive service, unpretentious and delicious food, central location, and cleanliness :-).

Pros: The bed was misserable. Made of spring it has been used very much and has lost its rubber. It was very uncomfortable to sit or sleep. We were tossing over the bed.
Cons: The hotel does not provide south indian food like lunch. The food in the menu caters mainly to foreign customers, people liking non-veg. The food did not cater to our liking and we had to go to nearby hotels for lunch and dinner. The biscuit, ground nuts, chips, energy drinks , Choclate which costed Rs 10, Rs 20, Rs 20, Rs 35 and Rs 20 was listed in the room was ar Rs 60, Rs 60, Rs 40 , Rs 177 and cashew nuts cisting Rs 77 as Rs 154. Almost all items were 300% more than that was printed in the labels. No one would pay such an amount. You should create goodwill and not only focus on profit.

3,0 Mediocre
Pros: Nothing except the location is good.
Cons: 1. The pictures on the site are misleading. The rooms allotted to us had no view at all - windows did not open either. Ugly view of flea market covered with nets and crows sitting on a wire doing their business. 2. The road in front of the hotel always remains closed for 4 wheeler traffic , hence cars need to drop and pick up quite a bit away from the hotel. Very difficult for old people and people with some walking difficulties. But it's mentioned nowhere in the site. 3. Security is a big concern - streams of people from the beach roam around freely on foot and zip around on bikes close to pedestrians in front of the hotel (on the main patio), have not seen security guards manning the gates most of the times. 4. The swimming pool is hardly that, it is actually a plunge pool. 5. Breakfast is the same everyday, there is no variety. 6. Furniture and upholstery are shabby. 7. Amenities such as shower, TV etc. in the rooms would hardly function properly. We faced this first hand and saw quite a few others complaining about the time wasted in having to get all these fixed each time.

Pros: The service rendered by the staff especially Ms. Choi, Azmeer the management team Kalai and Sudeep and the others made it very welcoming. Great location close to all amenities and great outdoor area to sit and watch the sea
Cons: The maintenance and condition of the rooms and selected areas in the hotel. The General Manager assured me that the property is going renovation and this will all be fixed by 2020. It should be great then if they do that.

Pros: The location
Cons: The telephone and wifi were broken when we arrived. We told it to the front desk but were told that we did not connect correctly. We did try to connect correctly, it was broken. After 2nd or 3rd-time asking about it, the said they would send an IT-guy to come to check it out. Until that person actually arrived I already had figured out the exact problem and when the IT-guy came I told him what was wrong. Nothing happened after that, because the maintenance team has to take a look at that. During our stay, the TV broke down as well. The remote never worked fully. The fridge was pretty dirty and stank when u opened it.
