#getgoing2025 This hotel is superb on every level. Luxurious yet laid back, amazing choice of food at all meals (I'm staggered at some reviews who say there was not enough choice at breakfast - probably 30 dishes al a carte, Thai/Indian dishes on the buffet, mezzes, fruit, pastries, bread, smoothies, yoghurt, cereal even bubbly)! Our Cliff Pool Villa was beautiful, perfectly clean and I didn't want to leave I can highly recommend the cooking course, the kitchen used is purpose built for teaching, has wonderful views and the chefs were great! If you do it be prepared for a great experience and a huge meal - invite someone to join you as it would have fed 2 but my husband went to the beach! Service was superb. Staff without exception were a delight. It doesn't have access to a beach other than via 10 min transfer 3 times a day in to Kamala - this was not an issue for us but appreciate others may prefer a beach location. This was more than compensated for by the views from our Cliff Villa and the main pool.
