The location and resort is realy nice. However the service and maintenance of the facility was not good. The quality of the food was realy poor and the rooms are not well maintained with poor amenities. Would not recommend for more than 1 night.

Lake front villas are the best. Rooms are spacious but need maintenance. WiFi was not working throughout the resort, the staff mentioned that they are working on upgrading WiFi. Food was tasteless for us but could change based on your taste pallet.

Review Pros • nice architecture from the outside. Inside , not so nice. Towels and bedsheet at a tad jaded. Cons • Poor service. You need to remind staff 2-3 times to get what you ask for (e.g., hot water, coffee, or smaller change). • buffet dinner is served cold. Even tho we showed up at 7.30pm when the restaurant just opened. • Despite the restaurant being only 20% full, service is slow and inefficient. You don’t get what you request and you need to remind them again and again. Do stay at any place but not here.

Highly recommend this place to anyone. The staff were friendly and courteous. The food was authentic and delicious. The staff were so kind that they facilitated a beautiful dinner for the teens and pre teens, incorporating steaks and western food. The children loved the authentic local cuisine the same. Hygiene was excellent.

Located on the edge of a forest, this beautiful place offered us a good stay in their water villas. The ambience is good. Villas are huge with very few amenities. Wi-Fi doesn’t work in the villas and we had to work from the reception area. Restaurant for breakfast and dinner was spacious. Food quality is good. Above all I would like to make a special mention about the front office staff, Kanishka and Chandana for their committed work ethics and helpful nature. Last but not least, Mahinder in the restaurant was an exceptional character, very helpful and suggesting the dishes we should try. Over all my daughter and I had a good stay at Liyya water villas resort
