Jungle River Resort

Jungle River Resort

10/10 Excellent
"The location was tranquil, the room was fantastic and Danny, the owner was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to ensure I had a pleasant stay. The room is equipped with everything you need to feel at home, and in the morning I received a gorgeous breakfast basket which included local fruits, a bagel and freshly squeezed juice. Couldn’t recommend this place enough! Paradise 🌻"
