As soon as we arrived at Shinagawa Beach I felt like I was in a little slice of heaven. The greenery and the sound of the waves was the perfect backdrop for our holiday. We were welcomed with big smiles and a cold drink that made us feel right at home. Our room was a sea view suite and it was spotless and modern. The view from the balcony was stunning; every morning we woke up to the sun rising over the Indian Ocean. The bed was super comfy and the room service was fast and friendly. The best part of our stay was the private beach. Unlike other touristy places, Shinagawa Beach has a quiet stretch of sand where we could just relax and be together. We spent our days lounging under the palm trees, swimming in the clear water and sipping cocktails from the beach bar. One evening we dined at the hotel restaurant and were treated to a fantastic meal. The seafood platter was amazing, each dish was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The staff were great and made excellent wine recommendations that went well with our meal. We also used the hotel’s spa services. The couples massage was super relaxing and the perfect end to our days of exploring. The spa was peaceful, with soft music and skilled therapists who made us feel pampered. Overall our stay at Shinagawa Beach was everything and more. Luxury, service and location – we can’t wait to go back and do it all again.

A group of us travelled to Calamansi Cove last week, and had an excellent two-night stay. We were ten adults and eight children ranging from 10 to 1. The place is very well designed for families with small children. The setting is a beautifully maintained garden with villa type rooms, each with its own private garden, outdoor space, and some rooftop space. The food overall was excellent, with something different offered for each meal. However what I would really like to commend were the hotel staff, who made our stay exceptional. Sujith, the hotel lifeguard, made our trip so much easier. He was always attentive without being intrusive, very gentle with the kids, and thoroughly trustworthy. Our trip experience would have been very different without him always on guard. The two serving staff we encountered, Chandana and Thilak, were so friendly, and extremely accommodating and obliging. Also our reservation and check-in were managed excellently by Nirodha, who also took every effort to ensure that we had a great stay. Special mention must be made of Tommy the hotel dog (fully vaccinated), who was also a great companion for the kids. One small problem with our trip was that the sea was not swimmable during our stay. Apparently June is not a great time for the sea here. But overall we had a great experience and would highly recommend Calamansi Cove for groups with small children.
