Guest Reviews

- Isabelle (10/5): -
- corrado (8/5): Quite original place -
- Adrian Kwai Ming (5/5): Unless there is nothing left to do - The layout and original idea is impressive What you see is not what it gets from the pictures. Don’t book activities via the hotel/resort , more expensive via lobby better get it online , discover Laos The resort is very run down , it is a shame. Pool is green . Facilities need to upgrade l. We book our activities one day earlier but they were not ready when we arrived , started only filling up the atvs with petrol then and there, starting the aTVs with jumper, and ended up the guide in a van rather than an Atv ( originally intended but other ATVs won’t start). A good 40 mins wasted . The idea of thrilling atv ride is gone if the guide is driving a van leading us . A bad experience what would otherwise be a good place to unwind . Not worth it to come all the way to muang sai then another 40 mins to reach to resort to have such.

- Ursula (10/5): Ein wahres Paradies zum Geniessen - Ein wahres Paradies. Grosse Fensterfront im Zimmer mit freiem Blick auf den Fluss und ins Grüne. Sehr ruhig, nur das Plätschern des Flusses, Vogelgezwitscher, Zykaden. Nichts als Natur. Gutes und reichhaltiges Frühstückbuffet. Hilfsbereites und sehr aufmerksames, freundliches Personal. Naher Aussichtsturm mit herrlichem Rundblick. Grosses Freizeitangebot. Nichts
- VERONIQUE (9/5): -
- Valerie (8/5): Memorable and lovely stay. - Fabulous location. Great places to sit quietly with amazing views. Beautiful reception area. Fun tour to the waterfall. Room was quite small but had an incredible view over the river.

- Kristina (9/5): Absolute Privatsphäre, immer wieder buchen! - Die poolvilla war fantastisch, viel Platz und viel Privatsphäre, Service war sehr schnell, Pool Reinigung wurde auf Nachfrage nachgeholt, Frühstück war super gut- große Auswahl und schöne Location, Badezimmer + Raum war ein absolutes Highlight und auch der Fluss direkt neben dem Zimmer, sehr gemütliches Hotel. Der Pool war sehr kalt!
- Luke (10/5): Secluded diamond - Idyllic property tucked away in a great area to explore. Did the day trip of quad biking and zip lining. Unreal! Definitely a hidden diamond in Laos
- Sven (7/5): -
- Tina (9/5): Idyllische Dschungelanlage - Eine wunderschöne Anlage mitten im Dschungel, sehr idyllisch am Fluss gelegen. Insekten lassen sich hier gut beobachten. Zudem gibt es einen schönen Aussichtspunkt mit herrlichem Blick auf die Umgebung und ein umfangreiches Aktivitätsprogramm, das gegen Aufpreis angeboten wird. Das Zimmer war komfortabel und das WLAN sehr gut. Das Restaurant bietet solide Speisen, wobei die vegetarische Auswahl im Vergleich etwas kleiner ausfällt. Auch der Service im Restaurant- und Poolbereich ist noch ausbaufähig. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir den äußerst engagierten Hotelmanager, der uns sofort geholfen und eine Alternative organisiert hat, als unser Minivan nach Vietnam kurzfristig storniert wurde. Insgesamt ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt in besonderer Naturkulisse.
- Perrot (10/5): - La beauté du concept hôtelier. La gentillesse du personnel et de Benjamin. Les massages, la piscine ultra propre. C'est un complexe parfait pour se ressourcer. Ne changez rien ! Rien
- Cochois (10/5): - L hôtel est en pleine nature au milieu de la végétation. Merci à Benjamin pour son accueil sa gentillesse et son professionnalisme. Le personnel et également au top. Nous avons adoré le restaurant où tous les mets sont succulents. La chambre est parfaite et donne sur le ruisseau. Nous avons passé 3 jours merveilleux.
- DE MELLIS (10/5): Ressort dans un cadre paradisiaque - Emplacement paradisiaque, dans une belle nature domptée. Beau Ressort avec des beaucoup d'activités proposées de tous types. Petit déjeuner fantastique. A faire. rien
- Vixayvong (10/5): -
- Martin (8/5): - great Resort in the nature directly on the river when I arrived the windows in my room very not really clean I could see fingerprints from the previous guests, and there was a plate with leftover food on the floor in front of my room.
- feng (7/5): 还不错，性价比还是很高！拍照打卡综合游玩很好 - 早餐非常不错 房间稍微小点，没有足够空间，周边非常潮湿！空调必须一直除湿
- claire (8/5): -
- jerome (10/5): Un lieux hors du temps et réellement dépaysant - Lieu et bienveillance du personnel
- K (8/5): Good location for hiking and enjoying the nature. - Looking at the location the breakfast was pretty good as well as all the quality of the other food. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Location is very beautiful, nice scenery and a really relaxing place. Really would like to go back and enjoy the nice activities on the premises. The cooking class was nice and intimate, we really liked it. We interact with the local community and this was really nice. I had booked the smallest room available, but as we experienced heavy rainfall this was not a good choice. When rainy weather is reality than almost all activities are cancelled due to slippery ground etc. Then one needs a really bigger room.
- pierre yves (10/5): A unique experience, worth spending few days to feel the atmosphere and enjoy all the are a - The place is just amazing, unique Nothing
- Mireille (10/5): Un séjour idéal pour se ressourcer, se promener - L’hôtel bénéficie d’un cadre somptueux : rivière, verdure. Très belle chambre avec toutes les commodités. Belle piscine. Très bon accueil. Petit déjeuner proposant un large choix de plats Rien
- iris (10/5): -
- Fredy (7/5): -
- Audrey (10/5): Tranquillité absolue - Le personnel extrêmement attentionné La politique éco resort Le calme et la beauté de l’environnement
- Sapin (9/5): Proche du paradis - Le paradis Le personnel adorable et Benjamin le directeur prêt à répondre à toutes vos questions Le petit déjeuner exceptionnel Pas ou très peu équipé pour le froid, mais comme il y a toujours une solution double couette et petit chauffage portable pour la salle de bain Avec un chauffage fixe dans la salle de bain ce serait parfait
- Gesina (8/5): - Wir waren Mitte Oktober 2025 dort. Perfekt zum Chillen. Der Bach war rauschend. Frühstücksbuffet war super. Das Ressort war toll. Sehr hilfsbereit der Ressort Chef und sein Team.
- Jennifer (10/5): A memorable stay out of the ordinary - Fantastic location combined with nature. Great food and friendly staff. Highly recommended Would be beneficial to have little signs near food and on menu to identify gluten and dairy containing foods
- GIANCARLA (9/5): - La struttura Negativi i servizi

- Michaela (10/5): גן עדן - הים המלונות הכי יפים שהיינו בהם, בתוך שמורת טבע, בחדר קיר שהוא כולו חלון ליער ולנחל -מדהים. הכל כל יפה שם, האווירה, הרוגע, המתקנים, ארוחת הבוקר מעולה והמסעדה טובה מאד. תמורה מלאה למחיר.
- Sean (10/5): - Perfect stay!!!
- Joanne(jo) (8/5): Absolutely a fabulous complex .. a vacation I’ll never forget - Breakfast was fab . Massages were superb Half my stay of 10 days no wifi in my room . Suggestion ; down time teach staff English. Offer a smaller size of the heathy salad .
- Eivy (9/5): - החדר גדול והנוף מדהים בלב הג׳ונגל הצוות נעים ארוחת בוקר טובה מסעדה מעולה
- Christina (7/5): Beautiful resort, but a lot of ants - The resort itself is beautiful: lush greenery, very well maintained, and with a great pool area – perfect for relaxing. The location is truly idyllic. A real highlight , was the tour with a very friendly, English-speaking guide. We hiked to a waterfall, and along the way he showed us butterflies, a snake, and orchids, while explaining the local nature in a fascinating way. This was truly excellent and highly recommended. We booked a Deluxe Double Room in a bungalow. Unfortunately, the balcony door was broken and could not be closed. Because of this, we had ants and even lizards all over the room. We reported it to reception, but it was never fixed. Sleeping was nearly impossible with so many ants everywhere. The breakfast was quite disappointing: dry bread and omelet – very basic, and there are definitely much better options elsewhere. In the end, we decided to leave one night earlier (we had booked three nights but stayed only two), as the room situation was just too uncomfortable.
- Jean-Marc (10/5): Une fois sur place, on a pas envie de repartir tout étant exceptionnel - Tout Rien
- Gabrielle (9/5): My aunty and I had a wonderful time staying here, and all the staff were professional and friendly. It’s about 30 mins d - Nested in the mountains, beautiful scenery and tranquil, absolutely beautiful place. So many activities around the resort you can organise through reception too. My aunty enjoyed talking and laughing with the manager Ben. My aunty said the bikes needed some grease, and some other choices beside from the restaurant food for snacks were needed.
- johan (10/5): - Very caring and attentive staff. Fantastic location, very comfortable rooms in a a one of a kind setting ! A must do / must go when in Laos, to unwind, relax and enjoy exeptional stay in nature. Go full on on Lao food specialities from the region at the hotel restaurant ! They are delicious to.
- sarah (10/5): - Our stay was very enjoyable. We loved feeling like we were immersed in the jungle along the river. The staff is wonderful and the view from our room and by the pool is perfect. I hope to return!
- LEA (4/5): Lieu très vieillissant qui n’est plus du tout à la hauteur de ce qu’ils annoncent sur leur site. Pas entretenu, odeur de - L’emplacement est incroyable. C’est au milieu de la jungle. Très bel endroit. Le personnel est adorable. Malheureusement l’hôtel semble à l’abandon. Ce lieu nous avait été recommandé, je pense qu’il a eu son heure de gloire mais aujourd’hui il y a un vrai soucis. L’hôtel est vétuste. Les chambres sentent le moisis, l’humidité est extrême dans les chambres. C’est la saison des pluies mais ça ne peut tout de même pas être acceptable. Les chambres sont vieillissantes. Notre première chambre subissait un dégât des eaux. Tout est assez vieillissant. L’eau de la piscine est particulièrement trouble. Les transats sont en partis moisis. Les serviettes de piscine sentent le moisis. La salle de sport et le spa ne sont plus entretenus et sont très salles. Le restaurant (seul lieu où vous pouvez manger car une fois dans l’hôtel vous êtes loin de tout) est très moyen alors que la cuisine laotienne est délicieuse. Tous les vélos en prêt sont abîmés. La ferme que le personnel vous propose de visiter au fond du domaine est en ruine (serres en plastique arrachées et disséminées dans la terre). La quasi totalité des activités n’était pas ouverte (en saison des pluies) mais rien n’est proposé en échange. Nous avons tout de même fait une ballade jusqu’aux cascades mais le jeune homme qui a conduit le petit camion et qui nous a emmené dans la jungle ne parlait pas un mot en anglais et n’a donc rien pu nous expliquer, quel dommage. Nous avons croisé un guide extérieur par hasard qui nous a indiqué qu’on pouvait se baigner dans la cascade sinon nous serions passés à côté. Nous nous sommes reporté sur L’activité quad par dépit mais les quads sont tombaient en panne au bout de 10 mn. Ce lieu est coûteux pour ces prestations, ce n’est pas normal. Quel dommage ! Nous repartons avec la sensation d’être passé à côté d’une partie de cette région.
- HATTHAPHONE (9/5): - The foods are quite big. If you order two or three dishes, it will cover three or four people. For me the location is a little bit far but I think the hotel should provide or facilitate the transportation between hotel and train station. The hotel did not provide or facilitate the transportation between hotel and train station.
- Anders (8/5): Great location - The staff here is very friendly. Though this is not a 5-star hotel as marketed. Expect around 3 star service then you’ll be fine. The park and activities are great and the location of the hotel is world class
- Jb (10/5): - Séjour très agréable à Namkat, je recommande mille fois ce petit coin de paradis. Au milieu de la nature, piscine, restauration , chambres incroyables! Le personnel a toujours été très à l'écoute de nos besoins. Le restaurant reste très abordable , les massages sont un peu plus chers que dans le teste du pays (environ 40€ de l'heure). Activité tyroliennes, pont de singe dans la jungle chaudement recommandées!!
- Gabriele (8/5): Bella struttura immersa nella natura. - Hotel in posizione favolosa in mezzo alla natura. Organizzano belle gite alla scoperta del parco. Ampiw scelta del cibo , bella la zona relax della piscina. Posto perfetto per rilassarsi. Tutta la struttura necessiterebbe di una bella ristrutturazione. Il personale seppur molto gentile e’ decisamente poco per un 5 stelle e parla davvero pochissimo inglese che rende tutto complicato.
- Noemi (4/5): Not for raining season but a beautiful location - The views and location are amazing. Staff was friendly. Unfortunately the price is too high for what you get. The room was humid, which during raining season makes sense, however, there are things you can do to reduce humidity in rooms. The restaurant staff is friendly but rather lazy we waited ages to order dessert which then we couldn’t have anymore because last order is at 20:30. A bit disappointing for a high priced hotel. Wouldn’t recommend during raining season, there is not much you can do when it rains.
- Lorise (10/5): Tranquil stay in a beautiful location - This is a beautiful place to stay and relax. From the moment we entered the resort we felt very welcome. The surroundings are stunning and you feel completely relaxed. We view from the room was spectacular with the wall to ceiling glass overlooking the river. The pool, spa and restaurant were great too. Most of all, the staff were friendly and caring. Nothing
- Amanpreet (8/5): - Room was good. Food was not that good. Location was really good, staff was very helpful
- Andy (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed at Namkat Yorla early May in a deluxe double bungalow, the setting was amazing, the end of the room was floor to ceiling glass overlooking the river, the resort was quiet as it was low season and we did a lovely trip on quad bikes to the sky bridges and waterfall. But what made Namkat Yorla stand out was the staff, particularly Ben and Tom. We had to go home earlier than we planned and Tom helped us get train tickets calling a friend as they were sold out online. Ben helped us getting to the station and navigating the taxis, and was so supportive, we can’t thank them enough x
- Famke (8/5): Relaxing weekend - Really nice restaurant not too expensive. Also the pool and facilities were amazing beautifull! The only thing is that everything you could do you had to do with a tour or walk far distance. But for a relaxing stop it is an amazing resort!
- Marie-louis (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful tranquil, in the middle of nature. The hotel manager made everything we wished for possible and had great tips for us. The bungalow was fantastic and very cosy. The activities offered were very fun and everything was taken care of The food (lunch and dinner) is unfortunately below average in Laos and quite pricey, which is very unfortunate as there are no alternatives due to the location. Breakfast was however very nice.
- Kim (10/5): Lovely Resort within the forest with a closeby river - The resort is beatifully placed within the forest. The rooms are small but very nice with great views of the river. The breakfast is delicious and has everything one can ask for. The rooms are mabye a bit small if you have big luaggage.
- Richard (9/5): Superb -
- Deth (6/5): Location - Location is great. Many activities offered by the resort. If pay with credit card for hotel charges or activities to your room, they will add additional 3%. The service charges range from 5 to 10% from the restaurant to package activities.
- William (8/5): Very good -
- A. (8/5): Comfortable and beautiful but totally ‘in the comfort zone’. So little real excitement. - Beautiful resort, friendly staff. Restaurant is good Activities are scheduled and accommodated in a way that it is for absolute beginners. I am used to trekking or biking on my own for few hours - here this is not possible (e.g. not allowed to walk to the waterfall alone)
- Calder (10/5): Exceptional -
- Avihay (7/5): Good - Location The hotel staff lacks experience, they don’t speak English and are not helpful at all. Housekeeping came to clean the room only at 5:00 PM. The restaurant is understaffed, and the wait for service and food is very long. Apart from the amazing natural surroundings, the price is not worth it.
- Atiyeh (6/5): Pleasant - We loved the location, the facility is right placed in the forest and several creeks and rivers running through. The facility itself is nicely designed with bamboos and local handicrafts Namkat is a stunning place, however, the service and hospitality significantly detracted from the experience. The issues encountered, including delayed and poor-quality food service and apparent understaffing, suggest a lack of adequate staff training and managerial oversight. Although the staff were kind and did their best under the circumstances, it was clear they were overwhelmed. The lack of nearby dining alternatives further compounded the problem. Previous visitor comments indicate that these issues are recurring, suggesting a persistent disregard by management for improving service quality.
- Bried (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sandra (9/5): Superb - Stunning location. Very nice spacious and comfortable room. Beautiful view from the restaurant and pool. The hotel garden is amazing. Hikes were beautiful (waterfall and giant trees). Staffs didn't speak much English so a few misunderstanding on orders and hikes. Would be nice to have a few easier hikes for younger children and elderly.
- CHRISTOPHE (8/5): Énorme resort au calme d'un parc national - Resort bien conçu pour les séjours de groupes. Si le buffet petit déjeuner est plutôt bien, les plats laotiens des repas sont plutôt moyens, sauf à rester sur les soupes de nouilles. Dommage qu'on ne puisse pas aller à pied du resort aux chutes d'eau à proximité (seulement 6km dont 5km sur une route forestière et 1km de 16 ponts suspendus successifs), le parc imposant de prendre un véhicule avec guide/chauffeur.
- Wang (10/5): - Relaxing atmosphere on the creek. Good breakfast Beautiful property. Super friendly staff and services.
- Jesse (9/5): Unique and worth the effort to reach - A truly incredible location and a great variety of activities to do which were very reasonably priced Rooms had been shut up for a while and were very musty. The food was mediocre, and the buffet needed more insect protection.
- Femke (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the views, it is paradise on earth. Also de staff was so nice and friendly. If you want to complain that not all of them speak English than you don t have to come to laos. The breakfast was very good and for everybody was something. Dinner was also really nice and not to expensive. The information center is nearby and you can book activities. If you want to complain you always find something. It s true it needs a little bit of maintenance but again don t come to laos then. Keep also in mind that covid destroyed a lot. For us it was a lifetime experience and we will never forget this beautifully place, a big thanks to the staff to make it so easy Nothing
- Cecile (10/5): Superbe - Une déco soignée dans les moindres détails, chambres confortables, petits déjeuners parfaits et un manager au top qui fera tout pour que vous vous sentiez uniques
- Carlos (10/5): Thank you Benjamin, you are a great host - Really special place inside an area of very well preserved enviroment with trails to hike and cicle inside rice fields, bushes and mountains I liked everything
- Nec (1/5): This is NOT a luxury hotel but should be..... - The location is spectacular, and the surrounding countryside and gardens are very special. There is a river that runs not just by the hotel but through it also. Its a great location. We did several activities and all were awesome and great fun, ATV riding, forest walk, view point walk and zipline. All were amazing. The ATV's I think have seen better days and they had trouble starting them and during the day they kept breaking down. Evening Meal - The choices were good and the food we had was nice. The staff were good but spoke very little English other than the front desk. We did book for 6 nights but had to leave thankfully after 2 nights. There is no way we could have stayed for any longer. Like most other peoples views on anything, this is subjective and may not be an issue for you. My review has tried to be as honest as possible. The hotel itself is falling to pieces and is in need of some serious redevelopment. Because its in a location that is humid and damp anything wooden is basically rotting away and looking very tired. This is applicable to all the hotel. I have included some images of our room but this is a good representation of the rest of the hotel. Our room seemed to be clean but again didn't feel comfortable as you will see from the images I have included. The pillows were damp and didn't feel luxurious and this was the same for the bed. The air-conditioning unit leaked water into both our cases, the fixtures and fittings were all rotting as they were made from wood. The outdoor balcony you really couldn't use unless you were covered due to the large number of insects. The balcony roof was full of holes. Our room was not secure so we had numerus bugs in our room. Again see images of the gaps and large spider we found right next to my partners head. The shower area was looking tired and dirty but this was from a lack of a good clean. Food - Breakfast, this was not good at all the pastries were not fresh, the coffee not good, the choices poor. Overall not a good breakfast. If you like a bit of rough then you might like it here but if your looking for something luxurious then this is not the place as we found out.
- Brigitte (10/5): Fantastique - Séjour très agréable dans ce petit coin de paradis. Possibilités d'activités (visite de cascade, quad, musée...) Très bon restaurant, très copieux. Petit déjeuner très bon et très varié. Personnel très souriant, très sympathique et disponible. Benjamin, le responsable du resort sait nous transmettre sa passion pour ce lieu et la faune et la flore qui l'entoure. La chambre était fantastique avec vue sur la rivière. Piscine très agréable. C'est l'endroit idéal pour se relaxer en pleine nature. Nous remercions toute l'équipe pour ces 2jours et pour leur précieuse aide pour notre souci à la gare ;)
- ANGELES MELGAR (10/5): - Fantástica ubicación al costat del riu.
- Chiara (9/5): Great place - The menù doesn't have much vegetarian dishes, and this is frustrating for an eco lodge, but the maître d'hôtel came to offer us some off-menu vegetarian options. Adding a symbol for vegetarian and vegan on the menù or a page dadicated with more than a couple of options will make the guest feel more welcome.
- Steve (10/5): - Peaceful and extensive options. Would like to return.
- Ardy (9/5): Superb -
- Martine (7/5): Good -
- William (10/5): Exceptional - The location is wonderful, with woods and water all around, as well as a few rice paddies. We had a view of the water from our room and the restaurant. Great place to just relax. The room was a bit damp. Nights were cool and you couldn't heat, but they have us a second blanket immediately, so all worked out well.
- E (9/5): Great escape from the city with nature adventure and relaxing atmosphere - Great location far from city noises and disturbance; very nice combination of nature with comfort, can enjoy nature in every corner of the resort. Great nature park with walks through the mountains (hiking). Lots of attractions for adventure like zip line, water park and river activities. Camping also available. Food is very affordable and tasty, a variety of western and Asian dishes is available.
- Sarah (4/5): Disappointing. - The location and the setting. It was extremely isolated and other than the hotel restaurant there was no where else to eat, no where to buy any snacks and a very limited menu at the hotel. My son and I both suffered an extreme bout of food poisoning so much so that I requested they take me to a hospital/clinic as I felt I was on the verge of collapse. I must commend the front desk gentleman as he went above and beyond. I was disgusted however that following this we heard nothing from the manager. I couldn’t leave our room for two days whilst recovering and they did not check on us once. Nothing was mentioned at check out, they offered absolutely no compensation for what occurred. Clearly as we had only eaten at the hotel the past 3 days there was no where else it could have occurred and my son and I fell sick within hours of each other and eating the same dish. I was so ill I wondered if I was going to survive the night. This could be a really great place to stay if adjustments were made to how it was run and what is available to guests. We had to request our room be serviced everyday bar one. The facilities were ok but not fantastic. Being next to the river is lovely, but having to pay for every walk you do is not. Such a shame as this area has so much potential to be a truly unforgettable holiday location. It was unforgettable for us for all the wrong reasons.
- Lukasz (10/5): Best place ever. without a doubt. -
- Emma (8/5): Very good -
- VEE (4/5): - Jetted tub’s light not working. Insects/ants inside the bed. Was told the resort ran out of water bottles so we had to buy from the restaurant.
- Rosalind (8/5): Amazing resort with soothing views and water features! - Whole resort was amazing! The pillows were too hard Terrible polyester Should have soft feathered pillows
- Jaye (8/5): Great fun - fabulous activities and incredible setting - Fabulous setting- unparalleled
- Rena (10/5): Wow, I could live here! - This was one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed in. The rooms were beautiful and I felt like I was sleeping in the jungle. The walk up to the falls was fun and exhilarating. The breakfast was delicious from the omelettes, to the chocolate croissants to veggies to the beautiful location while eating. The staff is sweet. The food is reasonable priced for such a nice resort.
- Che-ming (10/5): Awesome view, good service but walkway is too dark at night - The service is good. And it’s natural view is very awesome! It’s too dark at night. This is a bit dangerous when you walking to the restaurant at night.
- Moose (9/5): Relaxing - The area is very relaxing. The pool is very welcoming. The view from the room is awesome. The breakfast was excellent. Not much space for clothes (no wardrobe and only 2 hangers).
- Andreas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcin (5/5): Passable -
- Janine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Janine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Phanomsack (8/5): - Good place to stay but too far from town. Hotel van transportation service was barely available due to staffing shortage. Hotel should collaborate with their local ride share service.
- Zhang (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thongphone (10/5): - Good
- tony (8/5): - Great
- Verified traveler (6/5): 朝食が豪華なリゾート施設 - 朝食が豪華。エコ(スタンダード)ルームはそれなりに狭いが、最低限は揃っており困る事はあまりない。2人連続でシャワーを使ってもお湯がきちんと出る。敷地内に土産物屋、コンビニ、カフェ、食堂(朝食会場とは別)がある。ただし、17時前に全て閉まる。 部屋の湿度が高くエアコンのドライ設定をオンにして一晩過ごしても湿気を感じる。英語が通じるスタッフが限定的。敷地内の道路は、おそらく意図的に小川を横断させているため、徒歩の移動が困難。移動は時間にゆとりを持って計画する必要がある。
- Christian (10/5): - Établissement parfaitement chapeauté et animé par Benjamin, grand connaisseur du pays et toujours disponible. Charme incontestable de l'environnement et de tout l'immense domaine. Cuisine excellente. ! A refaire sans hésiter. Mille mercis. Christian REY
- Rémi (10/5): Such a peacefull place - We had an amazing stay at The Resort. The staff and the manager was warmefully welcoming, professionnal and so nice with us.

It's over expected! We've never been to a resort as beautiful as Yorla! Thank you Nothing. It was all perfect
- Nathalie (10/5): - Dans l’ensemble tout est parfait sauf pour le wifi, malgré l’intervention du personnel.
