Beach Village Resort

Disastrous vacation we had... couldn't stay here for more than a day... don't ever go there guys... We had booked a room there through Travvel Holik well in advance since it was a long weekend...we were promised that there would be a restaurant at this place and will be able to serve authentic konkan food... specially fish... We reached lunch time on 29th and checked in room number 203 of the heritage section...whatever reason that was named like tht...it is nothing more than a glorified lodge...common balcony where you can hear everything when someone walks past the room...so no privacy at all...we went in the restaurant and there were fish and chicken thali that were available at the resort restaurant...both were just abt ok but exorbitantly priced...400/- for chicken and 500/- for fish thali...i mean c'mon man...we get cheaper thalis out here in Pune which are much better... After coming back from lunch we checked the tea and coffee kettle...and lo behold...a small cockroach came out...which we killed...foto added here...the tea bags too seemed to be old n stinky so got everything replaced... We tried to rest and there was a power cut (which is a little common in these areas so no big deal) but the generator was switched On only after i called the manager/owner...he didn't knw abt the power cut...wow...nice... Dinner time...we came back from the beach around 7ish and asked what was available at the restaurant...the answer was.. nothing...not very direct but we got the idea...we were told there is a restaurant nearby from where we can order and they will get it to the room... options were...chinese and mughlai...i mean we go to konkan to eat their style fish curries man...agar chinese hee khana hai toh Pune mei hee kha lengey...we ordered Veg burnt garlic rice and chicken chilly gravy...we got chicken fried rice and the gravy...again no bothering on what is ordered by the customer...we went in the bathroom to wash hands and lo behold... another huge cockroach...foto provided again here...seems like we were hired for pest control or something... However the food we ate...wifey got a stomach bug...so i don't need to say anything more... Sleep time... multiple power cuts throughout the night and as usual the generator was switched on after 10-15 minutes...till then u r left to die in the heat...die customer die!!! Next morning...we were offered shifting to the cottage category...we denied...what's the use if we face the same issues in a different room...no good food...no rest.. Tried the breakfast...was just ok...which was the final nail in the coffin...we just checked out and came home... Had paid in full for 2 nights...Travvel Holik...from where we booked didn't seem to be interested in refunding any amount...and we had told him anyways...keep the money...u lost not just 1 customer but many... Aravi beach is nice and unexplored...but don't go there to stay nearby...just visit it from Diveagar and go back to Diveagar to stay... Never ever stay

"My recent stay at this property was a delightful experience for my family and me. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel truly welcomed. However, it was the owner's exceptional hospitality that made our stay memorable. The serene environment and beautiful views added to the charm, providing a perfect backdrop for a peaceful retreat. Whether you seek relaxation or quality family time, I highly recommend this property for its warm atmosphere and scenic surroundings. It was a memorable and enjoyable stay."
