The hotel offers a unique stay in small villas with massive bathrooms and a slightly musty feel. The service is friendly and reliable, though there were some issues with rude behavior concerning WiFi connectivity. The location is ideal for nature lovers, being close to orangutan and sun bear sanctuaries. Dining options are tasty but may come at a slightly higher price. Overall, a charming stay with some minor drawbacks.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel, surrounded by a lovely jungle-like forest. The view from the restaurant was super beautiful and relaxing. The rooms were not at all dark to sleep in, which was a bit disappointing given that it's an otherwise quiet area at night.

The hotel is nestled in a beautiful location surrounded by a lake and jungle, offering a serene setting close to key conservation centers. The rooms, although lacking views and hammocks in some cases, are well-equipped with windows on all sides. The noisy air conditioner may disrupt sleep, affecting the overall room experience.

I had an incredible stay at this hotel! The rooms were exquisitely beautiful, like African safari luxury bungalows, very comfortable, with a lovely raised balcony overlooking the river. The service was top-notch, with attentive staff who were welcoming and even delivered our bags to the room. The location couldn't have been better, right next to the Sun Bear Conservation and Orang-utan Sanctuary. The dining experience was really good and reasonably priced. Overall, a fantastic experience with only a few minor drawbacks.
