Hi Henry,
Thanks for all the help extended in making reservation at Sunbird Garden Resort. Though asking to reserve at last moment. You could help.
SUNBIRD GARDEN RESORT
The resort was extremely maintained very well. Very clean and hygienic
The support staff were very helpful.
The cuisine was homely
We had extremely wonderful time and enjoyed our stay.
The tips I want to give is they should have 24hours hot water. Because after the sight seeing you would not know the exact time when will you be back and if no hot water you cannot relax.
Secondly let the resort have TV.
Thirdly the food was not served hot.
Fourthly there was no light outside the cottage and in dark you would not be able to see and walk.
But still the resort was maintained extremely well and had good time.
Thanks for all the effort.
Henry you specially helped to get the reservation though booking of resort was full and the communication given was an excellent job.
Thanks for a good holiday.

Dear Jitha and Henry,
Sorry we have taken so much time in thanking you both for making our visit to Kerala so enjoyable. All the arrangements you made were excellent and we were really impressed with the way you kept in touch with us during our travels in Kerala. It was so refreshing to see such efficiency in India.
We have, therefore, no hesitation in recommending to our friends to get in touch with you whenever they plan to visit Kerala and we have no doubt that you will look after them as well as you did for us.
Thank you again.
Dear Ms Anu,
Many thanks for the excellent coordination and support you have provided to us while planning for this trip. Even though we had less time to plan, due to your efforts, we had an opportunity to go ahead with our vacation in Kumarakom Lake Resort. Needless to say that we all had a nice time in KL resort and enjoyed very bit of the experience. Have a nice day.
Dear Francis,
With regards to the trip we would like to thank you for the time you took and effort you made to arrange our trip. We had a wonderful time as I expressed to you on the phone the other day. If only the weather had cooperated on a few more days it would have been better for more outdoor activities. The tour arrangements were well organized. The one thing we would have changed about the itinerary was the night in Tamil Nadu. Although the site was interesting the long drive was too much. A second night at Kovalam beach relaxing would have been better. A six hour drive in one day is too much time to be in the car. The home stay was great. It was nice to meet a Karolite family and see how they live and hear their views on things. They had arranged for us to see one of the cultural shows which we thoroughly enjoyed. Mr. Monohan, our host, had arranged a 7 hour yoga session. He was very gracious when we declined not to partake. We really enjoyed our site seeing in Cochin instead. We also visited the Kerala.com office and met Mr Paul and some of the other people who were working for the company.
We were pleased with our accommodation and especially liked the Mascot Hotel, Tree Tops in Thekkady and the houseboat. Floating in the backwaters was a highlight, in spite of the rain. The boat crew were outstanding and made our short stay delightful.
Our driver, Mr Vineeth, was courteous, conscientious, accommodating and very helpful during our 12 days. We felt badly that he often had to sleep in the car as accommodation is not always provided for the drivers. He never mentioned it or complained. This was our observation. We will certainly recommend this trip and yourself to other friends and colleagues who are interested in going to Kerala. Again thank you for your help and your follow-up. I will forward pictures once I am back in Dubai next weekend.
Best wishes,
Judith
