“Fair”
13 Feb 2025
Food was generally not very good. Road up to hotel is in terrible condition and not wide enough

“Very good”

Beautiful view, property & amazing staff & great food & great service.

“Great views and nice pool”
06 Jan 2025
Great views, polite staff, very nice pool, AC, hot water. WIfi. The road to the hotel doesn't require a 4×4 car. We were driving late in the evening and in the rain and had no issues to get up there. We were surprised by many reviews concerned about the road condition and saying to use only 4x4. We had a regular SUV (not 4x4), and felt that even in a sedan it should be OK.

“Superb”

Amazing views from rooms and pool area. Pool area and bar is very nice and didn’t expect it. Breakfast was good with great service and plenty of coffee. Overall experience was better than expected and felt like staring at nice high end tropical lodge with amazing views

The villa is located far away from civilization. It is perfect for get away type of holiday, when you want to be far away from people. The views are really amazing from here and you can see the National park and the beach. Enjoy amazing sunsets!

“Beautiful pool and view”
25 May 2024
What a great little hotel with a fab view and lovely pool area (lots of birds flying by). If you have a spare day on your trip, this would be a great place to relax by the pool. We only stayed one night, but could easily have spent 2 here. Great restaurant and staff were super helpful & friendly.
