Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: The location is amazing with a big garden and a swimming pool, in the middle of the jungle. The staff is really nice and keen to share. The dîner was also really good.

Negative: The bathroom is quite old and not really clean. I would have liked a mosquito net.

Summary: Good location in the jungle
