    Not worth it

    The breakfast

    Everything else. The price for a cottage was very high and accommodation was very mediocre. To find the location was the most stressful thing anyone can endure for after half an hour of search we still couldn’t find our cottage. Signage was very poor.

    Cosy, comfortable and convenient

    Comfortable modern rooms. Bathroom facilities where modern and clean. Bed and linen very nice. Access to carpark easy. Monsoon restaurant onsite is OUTSTANDING. Service is exceptional and food and drinks where great

    The rooms really need to have a SHEER CURTAIN as its either block out blind closed and your in darkness, or blind open with NO PRIVACY (full view of you room to passers by and adjacent rooms). Also a small fridge would be handy for guests

    Nothing like what we booked.

    Staff were incredibly kind and helpful. And the restaurant attached was good with great staff as well. Every person who worked here was polite, helpful, and genuinely friendly.

    Looked nothing like the photos. The photos showed a cute bungalow style room with beautiful wood. We got linoleum with a BO smell. Not worth the price at all. Looked dirty with stains all over. The walls are so thin I could hear peoples conversations next door. Also we were placed next to some stairs which sounded like a stampede of elephants any time someone went up or down them. This is a hostel with some motel rooms thrown in. It is not a rainforest retreat at all. I am incredibly disappointed with this experience.
