It would be an understatement to say that the Diwa Club exceeded our expectations. We’re a family of 4 and so booked a suite. The facilities were great, good spaces and we had a balcony with a view overlooking the pool. The decor was impressive and in keeping with the general feeling of the resort. We also had an additional small seating area on the balcony. We had a very large bathroom and more than ample storage space for our week-long stay. What really impressed us were the grounds. The greenery and the overall ambience made for a very tranquil setting that immediately made us feel refreshed. It is very apparent that the ***agement places a very high emphasis on maintaining this to a high standard. In our opinion the attention to this and the general design really sets the resort apart from others we have been to. Though the facilities were great, the holiday was taken up a couple of notches by the very attentive staff. They all took the time out to speak with us and make sure all of our holiday needs were met. I feel I should have taken a list of names, but I have mentioned a few of the guys that made our holiday special below, Being at the Diwa Club, we also had access to the all day lazy breakfast options and Chai Paani at the Bistro every evening. This was a very nice touch and the staff were very accommodating of our needs. Thank you to Chef Arif, Shivraj, Declan, Hanu*** and the rest of the team. We also had breakfast and our evening meals at Vivo. We really enjoyed the daily buffets and as a family of vegetarians, the variety was impressive. The food was fresh with lots of local ingredients prepared on site.. We have to say a very special thanks to the assistant ***ager, Somnath. He was extremely thoughtful and helpful over the course of our stay. He helped arrange food that was not available in the buffet when the kids were feeling fussy, and on one occasion, when we were feeling a little under the weather, he personally made a kadha for our sore throats (thanks, it worked a charm!). The variety of fresh food was a treat and when we praised head chef Sooraj and pastry chef Amit, they kindly took the time out to discuss the dishes and also shared a few recipes for a few of our fav dishes!! Thanks also to Barshan, Branden, Kumar, Sachin, Martha, Soumya and Sourav for your excellent service. We also ate once at the spice studio, which was great too. This was an A la carte menu, and the chef picked out some great choices for us. Nikunj and the housekeeping staff kept the room impeccably clean. Special thanks to Raghu, who took care of the room and even made a doll out of towels which the kids really appreciated.. Colin at the pool was always happy and cheerful and gave us some great advice around the different sightseeing options. Vasanth was great too. Lastly, our Diwa club hosts were brilliant and accommodating. A huge thanks to these guys as they were integral to coordinating our days and making our stay so memorable… Ruella,
