Pros:

​An exceptional family-friendly stay!

We stayed here with our kid and had a wonderful experience. The entire property was spotlessly clean, which gave us great peace of mind. What truly stood out was the staff—they were exceptionally warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile. It’s hard to find a place that feels this comfortable and accommodating when traveling with little ones. Highly recommended for families!

Cons:

Die Bilder stimmen nicht mit der Realität überein. Insbesondere die Lage. Das Hotel liegt nicht romantisch in einer Teeplantage, sondern ist umgeben von Müll und Ruinen.
