Taj Hotels - accommodation in Kozhikode

Clean quiet room friendly staff check in could have been more expeditious

Bathroom shower floor is very slippery and prone for fall. Need to install holding bars and add flooring to minimize slipping

This place is a dream come true. I have always wondered what a villa in Bali would look like, and when I entered the doors of Les Candles, I was left in aw. The layout, deisgn and daily practices of this resort is geared for nature-lovers and eco-friendly tourists. The smallest details reflect their commitment to their environment and these speak louder than an any ad ever could. The staff were exceptional. They rose to greet me as I entered the office and offered me welcome drinks. Then, I saw them do the same for their guests who arrived after. One morning, the receptionsit held the baby of a guest, so that mama could enjoy her breakfast. These are the small acts of kindess and compassion that show how much they care about the comfort of their customers. The young man to taught me how how to fish for tilapia (although he didn't know himself how to do so :)) was hilarious. I absolutely loved spending time with him. The food was also delcious and the head of kitchen ensured we were well-fed nutrious meals. Just 1 km drive away, there are all kinds of stores and services, and the same main road takes you to other wonders such as Wayanad. I highly recommend this resort, for its proximity to busy Calicut (about 30 minutes drive) and its interlace with pure, fresh, unspoiled nature. I will defintely be returning soon.
