At the guest house, every unit is equipped with bed linen and towels. I had an amazing time at this guesthouse. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and the location is stunning. The rooms have everything you need and the balcony offers a beautiful view over the river. The food was also delicious, every meal was a treat. The highlight of the stay was the jungle trek with their son Nabil and others. We were so well taken care of throughout the trek. Truly unforgettable days, highly recommended!

Guests can make use of the picnic area or the barbecue, or enjoy views of the lake and river. I did the 2 day/1 night Trek.

The food on the trek was phenomenal and it really was a wonderful experience. The property is great, with a beautiful lush green garden.
