Quiet and remote Nice Eco tourism spot, 2.5 stars basic in amenities
Pros:

More rustic and remote than i expected good for a getaway or if you are a nature lover. Great customer service JB and Charity made a huge difference in keeping us comfortable.

Cons:

Mosquitoes be prepared and bring repellent even in your room. There is no running water for a shower, the towels and bed linen are dated and needs replacing. Don’t travel with a lot of luggage as it is a climb upstairs to the rooms.

A very poor and depressing accomodation.

The best thing was that I was able to cancel the second night and that I got my money back.

Cons:

The whole place is run down.
The room is not worth more than 500 Pesos.

Pros:

The views rom the accommodation.

Cons:

The property sell a bit of a lie regarding the location of the property as it is quite far away and difficult to reach the enchanted river from here. It was not easy to find and some scamming locals on the way to reach the accommodation. The staff didn't even know I had a booking despite contacting them over Booking.com several times and you had to pay for WIFI in a place you receive no coverage which wasn't helpful. Also the breakfast was not great at all.. Overall, I can't really see any reason to stay here.

Low fidelity (only for short stopover)
Pros:

Beautiful location with rapid access to Enchanted River. A peaceful place for letting behind the chaotic urban life

Cons:

No electricity and WiFi during mid-day, no shower available (only a bucket of water with a scoop), the bathroom has a size of 1 qm with manual toilet flush, despite the fish availability the restaurant does not serve good fish dishes etc. Big transportation problems for surrounding areas if you didn't reserve a private taxi

Pros:

anorlunda upplevelse, " mini Alcatraz" med cool resturang också på egen pålad ö med bra mat och full bar.

Cons:

om du letar efter ett high end resort, så är inte det här för dig, men och andra sidan får du här precis allt du betalat för.

Pros:

I booked thru expedia, paid in full for 4 double room for me and my family. Website is not ear about the resorts including transportation. We arrived there via small boat.the front desk is not aware of our booking .they gave us the 8 person room instead of the actual preferred room of choice. The room they gave us is terrible. Toilet has no toilet seat. Walls of bathroom has holes. There is no shower. Toilet has no flush. Drain from the sink is just going to the floor. No wifi. I have pictures of their room bec i feel being robbed of what i paid for. Even the cheapest hotel is better than this resort can offer.
