Kanan Beach Resort

Pros:
We visited Kanan beach resort during early March 23 and the stay was excellent. We stayed in Double room cottage [ No 6] with a garden view and room was as advertised. The hall is wide and opens to beach view [very far] on one side and garden view on the other. The sliding wooden doors provide a good view and they can opened so much the hall looks like front portigo. The room is on a raised platform to give. a better view of the ocean and there are couple of bamboo chairs where one can relax. The bedroom is quite spacious and also has a sliding glass door which provides sea view [bit far]. The bedroom is attached to a spacious bathroom [dual door] , which opens on other side to luggage room and then to hall. The place is well maintined and rooms were clean and comfortable. The walk to beach from our cottage was less than 100m and beach is very good. There are lot of beds with shade on the beach. Though its a public beach , its not used by locals on weekdays. So you almost have the beach to the hotel guest. The swimming pool and garden are quite nice.

Cons:
The restaurant food can be be improved. The Indian dishes are very below par. They could not cook things we eat on a daily basis quite right. This might not be apparent to foreigners but for Indians its quite disappointing. The resort staff is courteous and well behaved. The massage is also quite sub par especially the oils.

Second visit from the UK to Kanan Beach Resort and thoroughly enjoyed our longer stay as facilities, food and service were again outstanding! Chef's thoughtful and delicate touch with sauces and dips created a varied menu of fantastic, tasty, freshly prepared dishes. The restaurant nestling amongst the palms and the sound of the ocean waves was a perfect setting. We'll be back again soon!

Our 11th visit for 4 weeks Jan/Feb 2024. We obviously love this place! The reasons are many - lovely detached bungalows, beautiful grounds, great pool, superb breakfast, lunch & dinner. The staff make every visit a delight, they are ALL exceptional, from the charming and very skilled chef, the 3 absolutely super guys in the beachside restaurant, through the maintenance staff, gardeners and the daily cleaners, all are extremely friendly. What's not to love?

What a wonderful place to stay ! We ended up at KBR after am 8 day trip down from Bangalore and what a wonderful way to end our holiday!
Everything about the resort was perfect - the sort of 5 star boutique luxury you would pay $500 a night for in other places but for very significantly less
Probably one of the nicest places we have ever stayed at - just 10 "cottages" spread out around a pool with direct access to the most perfect and deserted beach.
Special mention to all the wonderful staff!

Yet another wonderful stay! This was our second visit to this beautiful resort and its wonderful and kind staff. We love the serenity this resort has to offer. Clean and spacious rooms with a sea view and a very hospitable staff what more can one want. This has become our go to place for family holidays. Each time we visit ,we wish we could stay longer. Would strongly recommend this resort to everyone who is looking for a place to relax and rejuvenate with family. I would like to particularly mention the over and above service attitude of the staff here. There were many instances of thoughtful gestures by the resort staff that made our stay here even more enjoyable.

We had the chance to meet the resort owner during our stay and it’s obvious he takes much pride in his resort and staff and why would he not , he has a happy and efficient management and service team. So thank you again Team Kanan for the memorable stay.
