Our verdict

I am disappointed, It was quite a dirty place when we visited. All the water facilities, The quad bikes, jet skis etc weren’t working. The artificial lake doesn’t seem to exist again. A lot needs to be done to revive this place back to its old glory. Apart from that, it is a beautiful place.
