lovely balcony beautiful pool monkey appearance uphill location luggage carrying unclean window

the room featured a lovely balcony space. i found the pool to be beautiful. i also noticed monkeys made appearances occasionally.

the hotel is located uphill at the far end. reaching it is no easy task. you'll need to carry your luggage for about 1 km from the dock, and no one is there to assist. the condition of the room was underwhelming. windows hadn't been cleaned in weeks.

Wonderful Stay in Nature

unique experience flavorful option

The wooden houses offer a unique experience immersed in nature. Watching monkeys swing through the trees from my balcony was such a unique experience (I felt very connected to nature). The food was delicious with great variety, providing fresh and flavorful options.

The pathways to dining, reception and the pool are steep and cracked. It is very easy to fall and hurt yourself. They should renovate everything .
