“This eco-resort, though remote, fosters a convivial atmosphere, enhanced by engaging daily activities. I think the staff's dedication shines through, promising memorable adventures despite occasional communication challenges. Be prepared for limited menu options, however the overall relaxation makes it worthwhile in my opinion.”
