This is a very old property and not much has changed since probably the last 45or 50 years!! Yes, its that old:) Inside the room, the vintage feel is felt the most.. It just feels like a basic 3 star hotel.
But having said that, its the outdoors where one starts enjoying the property - alongwith the pool, there are some fantastic water slides - fast ones!! and you can keep doing it as long you wish to:)
The property grounds are fantastic!! Very large and you can enjoy the beauty of nature by just walking around - large / huge old trees and the undulating mountainside.. the wind cooly blowing - all very magnificent!!
The food here is rubbish to say the least.. just go to other nearby restaurants and enjoy the cheap n tasty food there.. and there are so many nearby places to go to..
The one major drawback is that if you are on a family/couple vacation, you are bound to be swarmed by the loads of single guests (mostly men) who have come on company conferences - this hotel caters mainly (appears that 75% of their business come from corporates) to such corporates and when we were staying, there were 6 companies who had booked their staff for various meetings n conferences.. so you dont get any peace coz of these people flocking the restaurants/pools/any possible spaces..
try and go to Fariyas during week days - mon/tue/wed and dont make the mistake of going on holidays..
