The hotel has both impressive features and significant downsides. The pool area is a standout, perfect for relaxing after a long day of exploring, while the rooms offer scenic views. However, the communication from the hotel regarding access is lacking, and some maintenance issues detract from the overall comfort. If you're willing to overlook these flaws, you may find value in your stay.

I found myself torn about my stay. The hotel boasts a beautiful sea view and is set away from the hustle, providing a serene escape. The rooms are spacious and have some nice amenities, but I struggled with occasional noise and a few maintenance issues. The pool area was enjoyable, but the dining could use improvement. Overall, it's decent value for the price, though it isn't without its quirks.

Our stay at the resort was fantastic! We were greeted warmly by the staff, who were always helpful. The breakfast buffet had a great variety, and the views from our room were breathtaking. However, be prepared for a bit of a walk to the beach, and the noise from long-tail boats might be an issue if you're a light sleeper.

The hotel is set in a beautiful jungle location that offers stunning views of the sea, but the steep paths can be challenging, especially for those with mobility issues. The cottages are spacious and clean, featuring a balcony where I even had a monkey visit. While the breakfast had plenty of tasty options, the reception service could be improved. Overall, it's a nice place to stay if you're ready for a bit of a hike.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, nestled in the jungle with beautiful views and plenty of wildlife around. The rooms were spacious and beautifully designed, but the cleaning and maintenance could use some improvement. The long walk to the beach and constant noise from the long tail boats were drawbacks, but the pool and breakfast made up for it. Overall, I enjoyed my time here, but might choose to stay closer to the beach next time.
