On asking for a sea side view room we were allotted a room at 4th floor. The scenery was quite amazing to see both hill and sea together.... More

Our Company PAE had our Annual Conference at Sterling Emerald Bay from 4th April to 6th April, the rooms are excellent, good food, nice swimming pool, spa, however there needs improvement in conference facilities, like airconditioning in the hall, power failures. We had about 113 participants for the conference and all of them enjoyed their stay.
