Dan Resorts & Weddings

We had booked 2 rooms for a family of four for 2 nights. The resort is quite far and in the interiors of the area. We took nearly 5 hours to reach from Mumbai wherein it showed 3.5hrs on the map. There’s nothing around the resort like any other restaurants, stores etc. So one is literally at the mercy of the resort for any needs. The amusement park part of the resort is yet being built so we didn’t get access to it. There were initial hiccups of no hot water but it was sorted by the electrician. Same for channels on the TV. The rooms were visibly clean but the walls were dirty and patchy due to water seepage and scribbling. The electric curtain in the bathroom was also dirty with literally a dirty handprint. The rooms were quite small for a deluxe room. The cost of the rooms are quite high inspite of the fact that they are not maintained well. There was only one small cupboard just above the table where the tea kettle was placed underneath which was the fridge. It was quite inconvenient to keep the bag on the floor or on the table below the TV. There are no rooms with twin beds, only double beds which is quite strange. The food was quite tasty but expensive. We requested twice for half-fried eggs on both mornings but the requests was turned down. Given that there were not many guests, I believe the chef could have accomodated our request. The staff was friendly, helpful and courteous except the buggy rider. The two men at the reception(forgot to take their names), restaurant staff, housekeeping were quite good. Recreational activities was good except for the carrom. Its a nice, huge place with enough place to walk and has 2 turfs, play area for children. However due to the inconvenience of reaching the resort, I wouldn’t really recommend it to anyone.

**TLDR:** Avoid Dan Resorts. Poor service, terrible food, overpriced, and unresponsive staff. Not worth the visit. --- We went to Dan Resorts, and it looks fancy only in the photos. Their property is well-built, but the food and service are an absolute ZERO. Let's start with service. We booked a dormitory for 8 people, which should have had 2 bathrooms, but one wasn't operational. We complained, and twice a guy came and only fidgeted with the knobs (something we had already done). He just gave up, and they refused to do anything. No change of room, no access to another bathroom, and worst of all, they couldn't get a plumber to fix it in two days. We had to literally fight to get housekeeping after one night. They finally came at 5 PM after being very persuasive. The housekeeping staff refused to give us fresh towels. It was raining outside constantly, all towels were wet, and they gave us two fresh towels for 8 people. They provided only plastic glasses to drink from, not proper glassware, which clearly spoiled the mood. Every time we went out, the gatekeeper asked if we had informed the reception that we were going out. It felt like school where you need permission to go out. Now for the food. Breakfast was the same for two days: Uttapams, Gatihya, Puri Bhaaji, Bhurjee Pav, among others, were the same. On the second day, the chutney had gone sour, and they refused to take action. It was clearly yesterday's leftover chutney gone bad. We also had A La Carte food. It's overpriced, the quantity is very small, and it's almost priced like a four-star hotel, but the food is just below par. My opinion: avoid this resort. Definitely don't eat the food here. Don't depend on the service; it's bad.
