My stay at East Bourne Resort was a mix of beautiful surroundings and frustrating experiences. The garden was a good escape, but issues with room maintenance and dining options greatly impacted my overall enjoyment. While staff members were friendly, the inconsistent amenities left me disappointed.

Breakfast was reasonably okay, but I found the dining prices a bit steep for what was offered. A burger priced at 225 plus GST felt excessive, and the breakfast buffet at 750 INR was a bit absurd.

The facilities overall are decent, but there were aspects like maintenance that could certainly be improved. The atmosphere is nice, though.

Some electronic issues also cropped up, which was concerning.
