    Lovely Staff. Great Facilities. Very Impressed. The room we booked did not have a balcony (an oversight by us). We were offered an upgrade to a stunning suite. Loved the interior design and lighting design. A real touch of luxury. We didn't get a swim in but the pool broken into different areas is great for different guests and looked amazing at night.

    We were upgraded to a superior room, which was a lovely surprise and much appreciated, as this king of accommodation isn’t something we usually stay in. Loved the pool, we had to drag our 11 year old out after 2hours, after we had been sitting bye pool drinking cocktails watching him. What luxury!

    Waking up with the forest outside our door every day was like a dream! It's the most amazing place, it has everything you need for a relaxing stay, after we got back from exploring rainforests and waterfalls we loved coming back and having a swim and a spa bath, and the bed was so comfy and we enjoyed a whole day of just lazing around the room, it was so cosy and we loved every minute, the owners were also so helpful and lovely, we were on our honeymoon and they brought us up a bottle of champagne, we would definitely stay again!

    The receptionist staff where so friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. Room 305. Overlooking the pool, which was lovely. The pool was a relaxing space and the jacuzzi is a bonus. It's only a 20 minute walk to the city centre. So close enough to the action but nice and quiet at night. Great place to stay. Thanks for your hospitality.
