Spectacular

10.0

Lovely accommodation, delightful pool and INCREDIBLE views. The drive to the hotel is very steep and rocky so a 4 wheel drive is recommended (we were rescued by the staff when our rental car couldn’t make it!). Steps away from animal sanctuary. Highly recommend.

Extraordinary experience

10.0

We had an extraordinary 12 day stay here. We had visited the Wildlife Sanctuary & the restaurant on previous visits to this area, & the stunning view convinced us to book some time here. Keysi was our first contact, & she was wonderful in every aspect. She even changed our room to accommodate my husband’s mobility issues, & it was an excellent choice. Our villa was large & well appointed, with a king sized comfortable bed, ac in the bedroom, & plenty of ceiling fans. The staff was kind & helpful to us both, & they brought our meals to our villa when he didn’t feel like walking over. Patrick, Yake, April & Nicole, thank you! Food was delicious! I loved the chia seed bowl for breakfast, made w coconut cream & topped w mangoes, & my husband particularly liked the fresh avocado toast. At dinner, the pasta was especially good. I loved the pesto sauce & had it w chicken on one occasion, shrimp on another. We occasionally snacked on the fried chicken nuggets w fresh potato fries, & also the fried fish nuggets. Thanks to Manuel, David & Samadhi for preparing delicious meals. Bar drinks were wonderful as well. Miriam the housekeeper kept our room clean & tidy, Christopher was a pleasant front desk person, & the gardener, maintenance man & security guard were all friendly & kept the place top notch…sorry I didn’t catch their names. Highly recommend!
