“Stepping into Maharaju Palace reveals a tranquil garden, a truly restorative space that invites lingering. The proximity to the beach is a distinct advantage, though the final approach requires a short walk due to narrow lanes, a small trade-off for such a location. The beds promise a good night's rest, complemented by helpful and amiable staff.”
