Sattva Camps and Cottages

I sincerely urge anyone thinking about staying here to reconsider. In my view, this place doesn't justify your money or time. My family stayed here in the second week of July and faced several issues. Our check-in was supposed to be at 1:00 PM, but when we called the caretaker, Karan, before arrival, he said the previous guests hadn't left and asked us to wait. However, we arrived around 12:40 PM to find the building empty, with no guests and the property looking neglected—the gate was rusty and the building seemed old. Then Karan said there was a police inspection and asked us to wait again. We waited until 2:30 PM without a room. Only after repeatedly pressing the owner did they admit there was a water supply problem they hadn't told us about. They moved us temporarily to another place to freshen up, wasting nearly half our day. When we finally got our room, the air conditioner barely worked. The property felt poorly maintained and lacked the comfort and service we expected. The next morning, breakfast included in our booking was disappointing; the caretaker said the regular cook was absent, so he brought three plates of dosa from a nearby hotel with no other options. After all these problems, we checked out early, losing a day of our trip. Contacting the owner or staff was very difficult, with many calls unanswered. Based on this experience, I strongly advise thinking twice before booking. Our stay was disappointing throughout, and we wouldn't recommend it. The only positive was the beach view, which I would rate 4 stars, but nothing else was good.

Stay away from this place. It was one of the worst experiences I've ever had. The management team—Karan (caretaker), Jayalakshmi (receptionist), and Rajesh—acted very unprofessionally. After taking your advance payment, they stop caring about guests. Complaints are ignored and no one takes responsibility. The caretaker tells you to call Jayalakshmi or Rajesh, but they rarely answer or help. The property is in poor shape: old, badly maintained rooms, broken doors, insects everywhere, and the AC doesn't work well. It doesn't match the booking description. They also don't provide the room at the promised check-in time, making you wait and wander around with excuses. The food served doesn't match the menu promised at booking. This place is badly managed, poorly maintained, and not worth your money. I strongly suggest reconsidering before booking. I won't stay here again or recommend it to anyone.

Nice location. The room was tidy.
