    Lovely, unique stay for a great, affordable price. The huts are comfortable and special. No AC so was a little hot at night but was still able to sleep. Bus can pick you up from right outside and walkable to some nice restaurants.

    Great location! I had little monkeys on my balcony in the morning :) Super helpful staff, they even walked me to the bus to make sure I'll take the right one. Delicious food and good value for money

    Property location was great. Easy to get to by local bus. The rooms were spotlessly clean. The water cold but as to be expected in this region and was refreshing after a long days walk! Food was good for an evening meal.
