Our 3 day stay at Aalterra was well taken care of specially with good breakfast and dinner (though more variety could be added). We liked the rooms, enjoyed the indoor activities and the staff were all very well behaved and polite. We also think the property was beautiful and quiet.

Since the location was quite offbeat, we did not expect it would be so far away from going anywhere to the town areas.

Good green compound. Serene atmosphere.

There were very limited indoor activities.
