Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is nestled in the heart of the island, offering a serene ambiance in a lush rainforest setting. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, but the open bathroom layout without a door may not suit all guests. The breakfast provided a satisfactory start to the day.
I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The rooms were spotlessly clean, well-equipped, and had a very secure feel to them. Everything was brand new and built perfectly to create a cozy atmosphere. With air-conditioning, warm water, drinking water, plenty of plugs, shower gel, normal and beach towels, a private hammock, and a delightful ambiance, it was a dream come true. However, the only downside was the price which was a bit on the higher side, yet the value for money was undeniable.
The hotel was a delightful escape amidst lush tropical greenery, offering a cool and calming oasis. The daily room upkeep and organization was spot-on, although it did take a while for the room to cool down. The WiFi was a convenient addition, enhancing the stay's comfort despite the cooling time. However, the price may be a consideration for those looking for quicker cooling options.
