Makara Village, Gokarna, Karnataka, India

“Remember that happiness is a way of travel – not a destination.” – Roy M. Goodman

We stayed at this hotel in November 2015.

Pros:

  1. They have a restaurant within the campus and food served was tasty and service was quick.
  2. Cottages and Bathrooms are spacious but not maintained well.
  3. Majority of the rooms are of cottage type and a good garden is been maintained in the front side.
  4. Staff was helpful and they have helped us with some contacts while we visited Mookabika temple.
  5. Resort is on the Road side (there is not much noise or other disturbances). The attractions like Gokarna OM beach is not so far (around 10-15kms, I guess).

Both AC and NON AC cottages are available.

Cons:

  1. I believe this Resort is not maintained properly. The old glory is not there anymore.
  2. Bathroom Maintenance was very poor and obviously it was not that clean (not sure about other cottages).
  3. Wi-Fi is not available in the room.
  4. Not a place for those not having their own vehicle.
  5. Be a little careful as lot of stray dogs are there in and around the resort.

Overall, we feel Makara Village is an average property. Its not a beach resort. Carry a Hand sanitizer and if possible, an insect repellent.

One line summary:

 Budget Cottages which needs some better maintenance.
