Silvanus Forest Retreat by Madstays, Alibaug

It has been most pathetic property ever i visited. No proper cleanliness, no dental kit/soap provided, broken furniture, fluctuating electricity, water leak from AC on the bed and lot of insects in the property. Worst property anyone can stay in their life.

Silvanus is a good secluded place for a peaceful vacation. However basic amenities lack in the property. The staff is very courteous and warm and food is good. Buy for the rates charged, its not a value for money. One can explore for peace and tranquility but nothing beyond.

The property is zero value for money. They charged us an exorbitant Rs 16k per night. Charging an exorbitant amount comes with offering basic things. THINGS WHICH WERE NOT THERE : 1. Proper parking - we practically parked our car on the road 2. Hot water - the geyser did not heat up for 30 mins and we literally had to do a crow shower (as good as no shower) 3. Hardly any food options also with the paneer being sweet, the second vegetable option left was also a sweet one 4. The food was full of oil, so much so that our hands were full of oil. 5. Breakfast did not have non fried options 6. Private pool was accessible to others (it was definitely not a private one). Also they were using the pool water to water the plants 7. The service was bad.. 8. The receptionist at checkout said wait for 10 mins as we have to check the room. Just to say the mini bar had nothing to offer and mind you, there is no food available post 10!!! 9. Roads to the place is really narrow - two cars can’t fit in at the same time.
