United KingdomI don’t have enough words to describe how beautiful , peaceful and rejuvenating my stay here was. You wake up and go to sleep to the sounds of nature. Each and every staff member treat you like family and as a solo traveller this was something that really put me at ease. The rooms were really spacious with a beautiful balcony and designed fabulously. Rustic, clean and homely. You must try yoga and have a treatment with the incredibly talented Ranja. An unforgettable experience. I cannot wait to come back and I know when I do everyone will make me feel welcome.
