The resort has a serene and natural atmosphere with beautiful surroundings, perfect for nature lovers. While the staff were friendly and the buggy service was excellent, the overall experience was marred by several issues. The dining options, particularly the breakfast, were quite disappointing, and there were problems with room maintenance, including noise and cleanliness issues. Despite the potential of the location, significant improvements are needed in both the food quality and the upkeep of the facilities.

My stay at the resort was a mix of beautiful surroundings but disappointing services and facilities. While the outdoor environment was lovely and ideal for nature lovers, the room had significant cleanliness and maintenance issues. It was a real letdown considering the room rates, especially with the limited dining options and poor service I encountered.

I found the resort to have a charming, natural ambiance, with log chalets surrounded by trees providing a unique experience. However, the access to the resort was a bit tricky, and the noise from nearby festivities disrupted the otherwise peaceful atmosphere. The service could also use some improvements in efficiency.

The resort has a lovely natural setting surrounded by greenery, providing a sense of serenity. However, the overall maintenance leaves much to be desired, as I faced several issues during my stay, including poor dining options and cleanliness.

Nestled in a forest sanctuary, the resort is beautiful and perfect for relaxation, but reaching the attractions in the city can be a hassle as it's a bit far from the main area.
Dining

The breakfast was quite underwhelming, lacking taste and variety - in fact, it was one of the worst I've experienced at a hotel. It definitely needs major improvement.

Many facilities were under maintenance during my visit, which was frustrating. The pool was the only notable amenity available, and while it was nice, it wasn't enough to make up for the overall lack.
