its location is good, in that, it's almost exactly between the kashid and murud-janjira beaches; so that's the convenience factor. the actual approach to the property is, however, a bit iffy, especially if you are in a sedan or an suv. parking, inside the property, is just adequate for 3 cars/suvs, and that's saying a lot. some deft maneuvering is needed to drive in & out if more than one 4-wheeler is parked. it being a homestay, don't expect a decent hotel's room service or its bells & whistles. the host, viraj, does his best to make the stay as comfortable as is possible. he's polite, always available on call to attend one's needs as much as is feasible. meals are available on prior request and are tastefully prepared. he has able help from mahesh kaka. our room was a 'sea-view' one from which we could see and hear the waves breaking on the adjacent nandagaon beach. lot of surrounding greenery and a well-tended lawn is an attraction. the parking is in the lawn. dining, with tables and chairs, too. a small, marked area to dance is also provided. the room lacked a tv, a luggage rack. also, a wire-mesh could cover the bathroom window to prevent insect entry. the room and bathroom were clean.
