We checked in at Rakshini villa in the afternoon. The host Nandini and their daughter welcomed us with a smile and explaining in detail about the facilities available in the villa.

Finally, after waiting endlessly safe responded saying she wouldn't be able to accommodate us citing "unavoidable circumstances" . I also suspect the exceptionally high reviews of this place has been "planted". Please book this place at...
