"What a wonderful place, very beautiful and relaxing.
Accommodation absolutely top notch, staff even better.
Having stayed in several highly rated 5 star hotels during our month long tour of India we felt this to be the best.
If you're looking for the backwater experience in true comfort and style then this gives you that.
We hired a day boat which picked us up from the bottom of the garden.
We spent the evenings watching the boats go by and the chinese fishing nets being used. Realy all one...

"It took 45 minutes to checkin and 30 minutes to checkout. Very inefficient process.
Went late to lunch buffet, and food was cold. A la carte food was good.
Location of hotel is good, though getting to it is interesting in a larger vehicle. "

"Hotellet har en relativt stor pool som ligger centralt i hotellområdet. Från poolen har man vacker utsikt över sjön. Rummen är av standard-karaktär, men de är rena och har luftkonditionering. Badrummet var något slitet. Personalen är mycket trevlig och hjälpsam. Det finns inget att göra utanför hotellområdet och inga promenadområden. Maten är fantastiskt god och mycket prisvärd!"

"We had a really poor experience…
1) The bathrooms and washing areas were smelling bad / extremely unclean… the taps were all fully dark and rusty
2) very salty water provided for all washing / bathing.
3) extremely un-friendly staff who were showing absolutely no interest in the welfare of the guests.
4) It was extremely hot during day time, so we asked them to switch on the AC and they said AC will be available only from 9pm.
5) We bought some expensive prawns from the shop they took as to ,...

"Amritara Beach Symphony is a little paradise. I loved my bungalow and enjoyed being close to the public beach where local families turn out to watch the sunset and fishermen haul in their catch in the morning. The pool is gorgeous, surrounded by lush greenery. The staff was attentive and helpful and arranged an amazing sunrise backwater boat tour. It felt like home-- would definitely stay again!
