I had an amazing experience at this hotel, where the elegant and traditional ambiance immediately set a relaxing tone. The peaceful location surrounded by mango and cashew trees was a lovely escape from the hustle of daily life. However, I did encounter some issues with the dining experience, as breakfast options were lackluster. Overall, the hotel provided great value for money and had excellent facilities, especially the pool area.

My stay at Mango Hill Resort was a mix of enjoyable moments and some disappointments. The Swiss Chalet rooms are truly charming and offer great value, along with a beautiful pool area. However, the dining experience could definitely use some improvement, especially with the limited options on the menu and service delays. The location is wonderfully tranquil, away from the city's hustle, but the dining experience needs more attention.

My experience at the resort was a mix of charm and disappointment. While the setting is beautiful and serene, especially surrounded by mango and cashew trees, the service left much to be desired, particularly given the high prices charged for the rooms. The conditions of the facilities, especially the pool, did not meet expectations, making it hard to recommend the place despite its potential.
