    The host was incredibly helpful and nice, arranging transfers and a mind-blowing jungle trekking experience for us. The room was spotless and the breakfast was delicious - we couldn't get enough of their refreshing lemonade. Our jungle trek guides, Leily and Adil, were super helpful, sharing fascinating insights about the nature and animals we encountered, including orangutans and monkeys. We had an absolutely jaw-dropping stay in a beautiful location. The staff were friendly and accommodating, offering luggage storage and a 24-hour reception. The inclusive airport shuttle was convenient, and we loved the opportunity for hiking and water sports. The in-room breakfast was a delightful touch, and we enjoyed unwinding with board games provided. Plus, the non-smoking rooms and no-pets policy ensured a comfortable stay.

    We stayed for a few days and the hospitality was exceptional. The owners and staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and even helped us when our child got sick. The accommodation itself was great, clean, and comfortable. The location was also perfect, right next to the jungle and river. We also had a fantastic overnight trek organized through the guesthouse with an excellent guide. a wonderful experience!

    Can highly recommend this hotel.

    From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the warm welcome and incredible service. The spacious and clean rooms with lovely terraces offered jaw-dropping views of the river and jungle. The staff went above and beyond to arrange transport and make our stay unforgettable. The guided trekking tour with a caring and knowledgeable guide was mind-blowing, and we loved the tube rafting back to the accommodation. The location is perfect, away from the hustle and bustle but surrounded by great restaurants. We can't wait to come back!

    stayed here for a jungle trek, perfect location, clean room, nice shower, no amenities, great breakfast on rooftop terrace.

    We decided to take a guided tour into the rainforest and it was mind-blowing. We saw orangutans swinging from the trees and even a cheeky monkey stole one of our snacks. Afterwards, we took a tube rafting down the river and it was the ultimate adrenaline rush. The guides were super cool and made sure we had an unforgettable adventure.

    The only thing we wished for was a bit more nightlife in the area. We're party animals and would have loved to dance the night away after our jungle adventures.

We booked a trekking tour with one of the guides who showcased their incredible knowledge of the jungle and deep care for the animals. The location of the guesthouse was perfect, tucked away in a quiet area near great restaurants. we had a fantastic time here and would definitely recommend it.

    The value for money at this guesthouse was excellent. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location by the river provided beautiful views. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making our stay a delightful experience.

    The breakfast could have been improved by offering a wider variety of options.
