We've stayed in Rockholm for 2 weeks and really enjoyed it The restaurant is so good that we didn't bother to go and eat somewhere else most of the time when we were at the hotel. Besides the regular menu they can also do something on request and all of that is very reasonably priced (compared to most of the European prices for the same quality and service). The breakfast is mainly vegetarian but variety is wide enough and some options are changed every day, we tried something new in different combinations every day. Non-veg breakfast options are always present but limited and some of the breakfast dishes could be spicy The receptionists are very helpful and helped us with the currency exchange, helped to book a scooter (since it was a low season it was hard to find anything working), arranged a reliable transfer to the airport at a good price (compared to an external transfer booking services), they can also help with everything related to tours and other activities We've really enjoyed the pool, even though it's not so big and rather shallow it appeared to be good enough for us. The water, pool itself and surrounding area were very clean. We didn't go to the beach but during the daytime it could be really considered as a private beach as there's always nobody even though the beach itself looks pleasant and clean, at the evening there will be cloud of locals watching the sunset and local kids playing football The room itself was clean, cozy and with enough lighting options. WiFi has proven to be stable and rather fast. And of course the view from the balcony is breathtaking and it's main feature of the hotel for sure The location is also nice, in a very quiet and somewhat secluded area but in just 5 minutes walk to the main beach with all other hotels and restaurants All the staff is very helpful and sincerely friendly

Very nice staff. The beach is not crowded, and there were always free sunbeds. Great selection of vegan/vegetarian ayurvedic food and drinks. Massages and treatments were careful and good quality. View from the upper rooms is superb.

Great place to be! Very nice and helpful staff. Varied Indian and continental breakfast. We stayed in a cottage with seaview and -sound - it was great! The beach is just in front of the hotel. During our stay the sea was very agitated so we stayed at the pool, The beautiful garden is full with flowers and birds. After the free consulting by the competent doctor we had several Ayurvedic treatments and that was an extraordinary experience! My acing knees were like new!!!
