A Beautiful Stay at Fortress Resort and Spa
We had a lovely stay at The Fortress Resort & Spa. The sea view was beautiful, and the room was very comfortable and nice. The staff were friendly, and the food was really good. We especially enjoyed the Indian food taste same like Indian authentic... We tried Dal Tadka, Aloo Paratha in the morning, and Butter Chicken, and all of them were delicious. We really enjoyed the food! However, we had one confusing experience with the room service. During the first two days, when I asked for Dal Khichdi for my baby, the room service staff member Ammal kindly offered it free of charge. But on the following day, another staff member charged us the price of Dal Makhani for the same dish. The Khichdi also tasted different from what we had received during the first two days. At the Radisson, where we stayed as well, they offered Khichdi for our baby free of charge throughout our entire stay. Therefore, we were a little confused about the difference in pricing and consistency.
