Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Postcard is an excellent hotel for a relaxing holiday. It is literally on a lagoon with the water touching the property. The foliage has been maintained very well to give the property a serene and thick green cover, which adds to the calm. The best part of the property of course are the people. Bharatvir and Ajith run the hotel very well with all staff out of sight but any food or service is available within a shout away. It is also a short drive away from Fort Gaulle, also a nice little charming town. I highly recommend it.
