Spacious rooms.. beautiful view from balcony, has all amenities for a family or friends trip.. kids can enjoy too.. breakfast was decent and tasty.. a little far off from the city and road is still being constructed.
The resort had been maintained well. Staff are courteous. A little far away from the town. The beach access is a little disappointing. Rooms are decent sized. I thought the food was a little expensive. The buffet breakfast spread was very good. You will find mostly family crowd in this resort.
The location is quite far from the main area of the beach. But usually resorts are placed like that only so no hard feeling. I experienced little less professionalism from the staffs, need to train them more or recruit better one. A lady Staff from the restaurant asked me that I have to pay for my complimentary breakfast as I have booked for 1 day only and it was the day of check out. As per the hotel rules, the check in time was 12 noon and check out was 10 am. The timing of breakfast was within 10.30 am. So technically I can't have my breakfast on day of check in as it would be more than 12 noon. And next day morning she was asking me to pay. It was really irritable during breakfast to listen such nuisance.
Sterling at Puri is a great property. The property, it's location, it's architecture and maintenance all are great. It's location has both positive and negative sides. Positive in the sense it is just the last resort and it exist on the bank of the river and sea. It gives a great view and an isolated beach. Negative in the sense, it is so isolated and remotely located that, communication from that position is quite challenging specifically if you are not having your personal vehicle. Great staff and room service. I would definitely recommend this property and suggest to have your personal vehicle with you.
I was amazed to see sun rising by just raising my rooms curtains.Some if the rooms has amazing beach view. I was not really impressed with the food as it was like ordering in a canteen where you have too many guests and your order is just one of it. Very oily, very general menu. The rooms are clean however the property is not well maintained you can see beer bottle and chappal whilst getting down to estuary from a gate which is behind. It is a lovely property but very far from city. Auto takes 300 one side to go to market and if you have plan to visit the market and stay in the resorts then it may not work well.
