HORRIBLE
Pathetic Service…very unprofessional way of serving foods..lizards are moving inside the room and ACs not working properly…We visited this place 2 years back in 2019… However very much disappointed to see such a detoriation in our present visit in 2021…Will definitely visit Shantiniketan in future but will certainly not stay in this resort and that is for sure…Compare to the services prices are too high..
A great experience of staying close to nature. Good for relaxing for a day or two.
Firstly, I would like to say that the facility was very good and thanks to Nomadics for suggesting me this place. If you truly love nature, you will find beauty all around. I also liked the number of flora and fauna there (fishes, turkeys, swans, herbs & plants etc). My daughter is a big dog lover. She specially enjoyed petting Lisa – the German shepherd and Rashi – the Lab. I also liked the bonfire, barbecue, hammock, relax tower and the outdoor/indoor sports facilities. Also we were lucky to be there in winter and got date sap (khejur ras) and date Jaggery, it was awesome.
Few things can be improved further like the cleanliness of the room and the food quality. A hair dryer can be provided too.
Our major challenge was the road. You’ve to take narrow road (8-10 ft) for last 1.5 KMs and its difficult for 2 cars to pass. It was truly a great experience to stay.
