Joe's Beach Shack (Beach resort) - Resort hotel in Sattakkonvalasai - Ramanathapuram, India

Pros: The property is nice. It's well spread out and has things like a pool and a badminton/ volleyball net. It's also located within walking distance of a beach. It is pet friendly as well. The staff were polite and helpful during our stay. Cons: For the price that they charge, the size of the room was very small. I'd say the cost can be adjusted to better reflect the space, especially since they are about 30 minutes outside Rameshwaram itself. The room wasn't ready for us to check in even though we arrived at 4 pm. I understand if they take some time to get things ready, but by 4 pm it should have been done. The room had a problem with insects for the entire night. This is probably a side effect of the property having so much greenery - which isn't a bad thing in itself - but they could figure out some way to better handle the insects in the room. It also takes them a couple of hours to prepare any meals. They are upfront about this and ask you to place an order well in advance, which addresses the issue to a certain extent, but is still an important factor to consider since there aren't many places to eat within walking distance. Finally, they don't have any working wifi in the property. They've mentioned that this is because they're close to a railway crossing.

Really a good resort! Neat and clean.. breakfast is awesome ! Lot of options and good quantity.. bed is very comfortable! Towels are provided!! Toilet tissue and hair dryer upon request ! Swimming pool is need a clean.. over all good choice !!

Great location away from crowded Rameshwaram, but 5 minutes from the beach. Friendly and courteous staff, clean rooms, delicious food. A place to enjoy nature and completely relax. The pool, swings and peacocks were great perks. Only cons were no wifi or kettle in the rooms, but staff were kind enough to bring morning tea/coffee or hot water as early as 6.45 am.

Such a great place to visit. Especially foe their care on food. They prepare on demand basis and every time they ensure to call as and ask for pre-order and ensure to prepare everything in fresh. Especially the fish meals that we had was yummy even the coffee Don't miss the swimming pool. This is close to the Ariman beach Try the boating and the private kids friendly waterfalls and fun just opposite of the resort..

Experience at your beach resort was extremely good Food , tidy rooms , lawn, adjacent beach , overall ambience , staffs attitude are all very good . Specifically we are happy that the resort is Pet friendly and our lab enjoyed the new experience. Thank you. We will recommend our friends to visit and we will also visit in future .

Decent place to stay. In close proximity to the beach though the access is not from within the property. Restaurant has limited options but pretty average taste. Our stay was spoilt by a big gang of irresponsible loud people ..management could not do anything to help. But that's our bad luck I suppose

Bel hotel avec piscine, vila De haut standing, nourriture bonne selon nos demandes seul bemol l'emplacement geographique pas mal eloigne. Nos enfants et nous avons beaucoup aime le sejour. Le manager nous arrange pour les ato et differents transports

The ambiance of nature is super, breakfast is superb. Dinner is not bad. Our rooms not good but there is new construction of villa like rooms that are very good .
