We have Just returned form 2/52 at Bogamalo Beach hotel. The staff are so helpful, professional, the pool guy ( sorry forgot his name) Angelica our cleaner, & of course the hotel ***ager Rita were first class! Yes, the hotel could do With a touch of TLC but that Adds to its charm & character. If you want an English holiday don’t stay in Bogamalo it’s traditional & that how life is in locations in India. The yellow shop can get you just about anything you want/need, there are enough eating places some tucked out of the way for our stay. The hotel only had one another English couple staying there, due to the loss of Thomas cook but we prefer it like that. There is a great of choice for breakfast. The hotel being quite rural but the local bus is on the hotel door step, Scooters & taxis available to explore local beaches & towns. The Olympic rep was on hand & we had a great time flying to Mumbai under the very attentive guide Raj, seeing the sights of this vast city & travelling back on the 10 hour overnight sleeper train, what an experience!! Thank you Rita & staff we will return.
