Shubha Guha

I had a great time staying at the Serai Resort. My booking was not only for the accommodations but also had meals and activities like watersports, spa and much more included in it. This deal from Thrillophilia actually helped me save a lot as i would have spent much more if i booked for each seperately. I would like to thank them as they helped me with the confirmation of the package on such short notice.

Serai Resort is the best place to be if you want to stay amidst nature. I had chosen a waterfront villa for myself and my partner and it was well worth the entire experience. The management takes hospitality very seriously and therefore made us feel like home. They also have a wide range of food options, all of which were delectable. Truly a wonderful stay.
