Wonderful place to stay the only thing that was unfortunate during our stay was that we didnt have access to the gym and the basketball court which was a big selling point for us when we were booking. It was all under construction and it would have been nice to know prior to arriving. Otherwise, beautiful location and very friendly staff!

We were blown away at this property! Perfection! Rooms totally updated and big! The staff amazing! Service was top notch 5 star worthy! I was an executive for a billion dollar travel conglomerate !

The loudest hotel in the world

Staff were excellent and grounds are gorgeous. Everything else was rough. Our room was extremely loud with river and animal noise. We couldn’t have a conversation in the room at all, anywhere, without yelling. We didn’t sleep the two nights we were there because it was so loud. Seriously, every night was like Bigfoot, a hyena and a dozen monkeys were partying all night, breaking branches, banging on the roof…the room condition also wasn’t great. The blinds and fans in the bedrooms didn’t work. There are bugs everywhere (normal for the area). We only had two days in the area and felt like they were ruined because we were so sleep deprived we couldn’t enjoy the area’s many activities. My daughter was sick (made worse by sleep deprivation) so we ordered some plain rice for her from room service, along with my dinner. My food was delivered (after over a hour) but hers never came. Finally, after two hours and many messages, it was delivered. I’ve stayed at hotels all over the world and am accustomed to the occasional noisy places but this noise couldn’t even be covered with a white noise machine on blast.

The property for what we paid was “okay” but had the potential to be a great resort . The room we were allocated was very tired and needed a refresh and lacked tea and coffee making facilities . I should note that there was an outdoor kitchen nearby but did not have milk , sugar etc. Some rooms are near a fast flowing river which is extremely noisy (this may not bother everyone). The resort is quite large and could do with being signposted. The pool area was good. Breakfast was great and it was an added perk that this was included in our rate. Strangely and this has never happened before, the hotel requested a USD500 deposit to be held which was super excessive and exceeded the cost of the hotel. The onsite spa is very reasonably priced and the massages are highly recommended.
