"Marina Beach is small but I found it a pleasant place to stay. The room is small but what is offered in-room is big: kitchenette, etc. The staff couldn't be nicer. I've stayed at very high end hotels where the staff makes me want to cancel my reservation. Here, they make one feel like they're glad we are here and they want to make our stay the best."
