    The host was extremely friendly and provided help at every time of the day. I've never met such a warm and welcoming family. The father of the host provides TukTuk service for the guests which is always safer and cheaper than all the other TukTuk...

    The view was stunning & serene, perfect to watch the sunrise, rolling mists and wildlife. The place is family-run, warm, kind and super helpful. The room itself has so many little quirks, very creative & sweet.
