10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful quiet retreat. Spent our evenings watching toucans and cooling off in the pool. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent - avocado toast for breakfast was a highlight. No TV in the room was great! Meant we really had a chance to disconnect from the world!"
