This was my second time spending a couple of days at Tamassa resort. We had a very good time. All the staff I interacted with right from reservation, during the stay and while checking out were incredibly helpful. Special mention for Jigisha, Preshna, Akilesh and a few others I met during my stay.

We had a wonderful stay and were impressed by every aspect of the resort. The location is beautiful, offering breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, peaceful morning walks, and plenty of activities to enjoy throughout the day. The rooms were spotless, quiet, and very comfortable, and the overall value for money was excellent. The food was outstanding thanks to Chef Edinho, Chef Kunal, Nawsheen, and the entire kitchen team, who consistently delivered delicious meals and excellent service. The entertainment team was fantastic, especially Mr. Sid, whose positive energy, dancing, competitions, and enthusiasm made every day enjoyable. The activities were well organized and added so much fun to our stay. And no noise coming to rooms! A special thank you to Manager Preshna for her exceptional hospitality. She checked on us regularly, listened to our feedback, accommodated our requests, and ensured we had the best possible experience. The cleanliness, service, amenities, food, entertainment, and overall atmosphere were all excellent. We highly recommend this resort and look forward to returning. Read less
