It was our very first time at the hotel and it was just amazing. We came to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the team of Tamassa just made it memorable. We had a warm welcome upon arriving at the hotel. We were accompanied till our room. We stayed in room 1036 and this number will always be engraved in our heart as the team of Tamassa made it possible. The beauty of the hotel was just WOW. As we are foody, we made it a must to taste every delicacy at the hotel. We would like to share our heartfelt thanks Chef Mr Edinho and Chef Mr Suraj who made our stay even better. Despite being kitchen staff, they have always been available for us and always been welcoming us, be it is for the breakfast, lunch or dinner. I have simply no words to describe the positivity they have been sharing with us. I sincerely wish them growth and a fruitful career. Our room was also decorated as a surprise for us. This made us so emotional as no one even mentioned that this was going to be the case. The housekeeping team did it so beautifully. I would strongly recommend Tamassa Resort if you want to have a good time, a peaceful time and a positive time with a beautiful team who is always here for you. Read less
