We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished we had time to book another night. The room was comfortable and gave the impression of being secluded. The service were polite and professional. Certainly would stay here again.

Disappointing

This resort is mostly a backpacker and with some deluxe rooms. The room was nice however the fridge is only a chill fridge and no freezer so when travelling and a kitchenette is advertised one expects a decent fridge. The rooms are not serviced until about 4-5 pm which is too late and the first service was very poor. Rubbish was left, no new milk and bed not made The amenities list a spa except that it is always full of backpackers and is a loud and unpleasant environment. Would not recommend as a deluxe accommodation For $600 per night and advertised as luxurious this property is very overpriced.

Is a quite clean with a lot of facilities. Recommended place to stay. Just a parking space a bit narrow (can say like just enough space) for the place we stay.

We had the pleasure of staying in the Rainforest Deluxe room, and I was truly impressed by how cozy and charming it was. The breathtaking mountain views and the serene forest surrounding the room made it feel like a peaceful escape. The room was thoughtfully equipped with everything I needed, including a small kitchen, which was a wonderful touch. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I especially loved the large glass doors that allowed me to savor the gentle rain while enjoying my coffee. The location is also ideal, with the main street just a couple of minutes away, making it easy to explore. To top it off, there’s a fantastic restaurant right next door that served some of the most delicious food I’ve had in a long time. This stay was truly special, and I’ll cherish the memories of it.

We stayed in the accessible rainforest treehouse. It is beautiful, we stayed two nights and didn’t want to leave. Bathroom fully accessible by self propelled commode. A bit tight in room with wheelchair but we just pushed the couch over a little. Thank you for having us. I recommend staying here.

Absolutely stunning. Wish we could have stayed longer. Very private and like you are in the middle of the rainforest, but with amazing views of the mountain. Highly recommend.

Modern, large, clean room with excellent facilities. A bit disappointed as we expected a view of the forest but it's just in a cul-de-sac with the other huts/lodges. Wouldn't sit outside as the other units look down on you (through some trees). Even though the rooms are excellent I think it's expensive for what you get - but perhaps that's just the area.
