Review of Sea View Lodge, KanyaKumari (Tamil Nadu)

Kanyakumari town hardly needs any introduction because every Indian knows that it is southern most tip of India. KanyaKumari is situated in Tamil Nadu state of India and it is very popular tourist destination in India. Millions of people every year visit Kanyakumari to see southern most tip of India. I also visited Kanyakumari to experience excitement of standing of Southern most tip of India.

I stayed in Sea View Lodge in Kanyakumari which is situated near Kanyakumari beach and it faces famous Vivekananda Rock Memorial and Thiruvalluvar Statue. This is the main attraction of this lodge that you get chance to see famous attractions of Kanyakumari from lodge. Moreover, People can enjoy sun rise from lodge itself. However expect these attractions; this is an average lodge with some comforts missing. I stayed in this lodge for two nights and three days.

I selected this lodge because of its presence on beach; however, I have no idea that other services can be missing in this lodge. The AC of my room was not working and it smelled when I tried to start it. They changed my room and I faced same situation again. Hot water supply was limited and quality of food was average. The only attraction of this hotel is its location and nearness to famous places in Kanyakumari. People can watch Vivekananda Rock Memorial, Thiruvalluvar Statue and Kanyakumari sun rise from their lodge room itself (if you take room facing sea).

However, I felt slightly let down by services offered by them. If people are looking for good view and they want to feel Kanyakumari but they can compromise on services then this lodge is for them. Room rent for rooms in Sea View Lodge is between Rs 3000 to Rs 4000. My rating for this hotel is 6 out of 10 (only because of its good location). For service, I will give only 4 points out of 10.

To Village Showad, Anni (Kullu) by Nalagarh-Arki-Basantpur-Luhri road (Pictures and Videos on the way)

  Last time, I shared my experience of the journey to Shimla through Nalagarh-Ramshehar-Kunihar road . Today, I will discuss with you the Nalagarh-Arki-Basantpur-Luhri road which offers a great thrill to adventure seekers. I have been to Nalagarh many times but I traveled on the Nalagrah-Arki-Basantpur-Luhri stretch for the first time. Nalagarh-Ramshehr-Kunihar road is also a delight for adventure seekers because it is a single road and offers some challenges to drivers. However when we take a turn to Arki and moves towards Basantpur then the level of excitement increases many times.  I started from Ropar and moved on NH 205 till Ghanauli and then took turns to Nalagarh road. The condition of this road from Ghanauli to Himachal entry point is very bad and then after the road is fine. After reaching Nalagarh, I took the State highway no. 16 towards Ramshehar. It is a single road but the works for its widening are taking place simultaneously. From Ramshehar, I continued on the S...

Security Concerns on Vacations

We all love to enjoy peaceful and secure vacations. Around the world, there are many good and attractive vacation locations available for the people; however, at some locations security remains a major concern. Though every country works hard to provide safe and secure vacations to tourists; however, it is important for tourists to learn well about place where they are planning to spend a vacation. In developing or under developed nations sometimes situations even become worse without any warning. Therefore, it makes no fun to choose a vacation location which fails to provide proper security and sometimes, this approach can take fatal look. People can easily reduce most of security risks and worries by studying well about place and planning vacations in time when everything is peaceful in that nation. It is also important to book quality and well known hotels for stay because these hotels take good security measures as compared to other general budget hotels. While travelling with fami...
