Please make sure you read fine prints with lodge. I was told one thing from staff about airport transportation then another via fine prints. Luckily I had a hired driver to accommodate to follow through with consistent services provided

Top notch, wonderful experience! Grounds are gorgeous and creative! Everyone there is helpful and friendly. Loved the room and the fact it had an outdoor shower! Food was delish and fresh. I could go on and on! My only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer!

The Lodge is wonderful in its own way. Not a beach resort, but a mangrove garden. Many fantastic flowers and great accommodations. The central reception/bar/restaurant was very fun and beautiful. The owner is friendly and full of great suggestions for activities. However the drive to the place was full of huge potholes whichb were often full of rainwater. I was honestly scared to get out of the taxi, when we arrived in the dark and there was not a well-lit or well- managed welcome area.

"Secluded getaway :)"

10.0

Very peaceful. Beautiful gardens and sunset from the beach bar area. Nice and spacious bungalows. Good food. Great hosts. Family run business in the middle of nature. Very good for relaxing. Nice chill area. Free and tasty tea and coffee throughout the day at the restaurant. Only downside were the many mosquitoes.

Super service, décor impressionnant en pleine Mangrove. Un peu trop de moustiques et bien éloigné de la route principale mais le personnel et le restaurant sont excellents

"Unforgetable "

8.0

Marina and Hajie are a pleasure to know. All the staff were most accommodating. This place is a little bit special, memorable, facinating and we are frequent travellers. Only problem for us was the condition of the appraoch road (not the lodges problem)which is diabolical in places. To be fair our driver did his best but my wife suffered a sudden drop in a deep pothole. Would seriously not recommend to any one with back or neck problems. This place is under renovation so can only get better but already a true gem.

Super, kameralne miejsce w zacisznej lokalizacji, idealne dla wszystkich lubiących świetną kuchnię, niekomercyjne miejsca z duszą i wypoczynek bez otoczenia tłumu turystów.. Polecam!
