  The beach is very beautiful but this place is not well run or well maintained.
  
  There are no signs along the unpaved pot hole ridden road to the 'resort' and my driver and tour guide had to ask directions from other vehicles along the way.
  
  When we arrived we noticed that electricity in the rooms and indeed the entire 'resort' cuts out due to power surges. This occurs every 30 seconds or so and your air con is therefore useless. The staff told us that there was a generator and that the problem would be fixed in 2 hours, but it was not. We spent a very hot, very uncomfortable night here.
  There is no Wi-Fi available due to the power surge problem.
  
  The swimming pool has crabs in it.
  
  The staff are incompetent. I ordered food from the a la carte menu along with tea and coffee at 5pm and asked for it to be delivered to our room at 7.30. At 8.30 nothing had arrived and we were asked to eat from the buffet (which we refused to do as members of our party were recovering from food poisoning). The manager informed me that there were not enough staff present to carry the dishes to our rooms. I went to the kitchen and waited for 45 minutes for the staff to prepare tea and coffee, fish and chips and toasted cheese and tomato sandwiches (which were not toasted). I carried them to the room myself. While I was waiting for the food I overheard complaints by several other guests that not enough cutlery was provided and food had not been cooked properly.
  They also do not have any cold drinks or bottled water as they prioritise chilling the beer in the fridge.
  
  The bed was decent and the bathroom was clean but there was no hot water available. None of toilets in our three cabanas would flush properly. The front doors for each cabana do not lock. In the morning we were told that local wildlife sometimes get into the rooms at night.
  
  We were unable to pay the bill here with a credit card. One of the employees followed us to an atm 10 minutes away and we had to withdraw funds in batches as the atm machine will only allow a maximum withdrawal of 30, 000 rupees at a time. The atm fee for each withdrawal of 30, 000 rupees is 400 rupees.
