Negative Reviews

Damp rooms

Negative comments have highlighted issues with the rooms. They are said to be damp and give off a stinky odour due to the vegetation and plantation surrounding the property. It is also mentioned that one cannot open windows to air out the rooms as it would them be invaded by insects.

Too far out

Guests mention that those without cars are likely to feel a bit stranded. Many of the attractions are said to be over a 30-minute drive away.

No backup power

There is some disappointment where the backup power is concerned. Many guests express that there are frequent power failures here and since there is no backup power, guests are left feeling a bit helpless at times.
