Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel with spacious and clean rooms, though there were some minor issues with insects. The location was fantastic, surrounded by beautiful wildlife but prone to mosquito and insect entry.
The hotel is located in a stunning area with picturesque views and surrounded by wildlife, but access to rooms from parking can be challenging with no assistance from staff. The rooms are clean and air-conditioned, although they could be brighter, and a bit more spacious. The dining experience offers fresh tropical fruits but lacks some basic amenities like butter and jam readily available.
I had an amazing time at this lodge! The rooms were beautifully done and incredibly comfortable for a good night's sleep. The friendly staff made my stay even better. The location was perfect for exploring the rainforest and nearby attractions. The dining was delicious, but there were a couple of minor hiccups. Overall, a great experience with excellent value for money.
