A very relaxing hotel with great rooms, especially the lake view rooms. Service is very good and the hotel is very well maintained.
Highly recommended

A great resort, located in the jungle by the lake. The rooms are very spacious and clean. There is a beautiful swimming pool. The facilities are not new, and the air conditioner stopped working in the middle of the night.

The property is located in front of the lake. Immersed in nature it is very suggestive.
We arrived around 6pm and unfortunately the pool closed at 6.30pm so we didn't have time to test it. They offer free spa service but massages are subject to charges.
The restaurant is well stocked with alcohol, you can eat discreetly buffet-style cuisine, both typical Asian and international, for around €15 per person. Breakfast is also a buffet; you can find sweet/savory products and freshly cooked eggs.
Our room (deluxe double) was very nice, on two levels: in the lower part the bathroom has a particular concept. A sliding door takes you directly into the room with a half roof covered only by a net. All very beautiful but impractical and above all there is the risk of finding many insects, as in our case.
In the upper part there is the bedroom, very comfortable.
The upholstery is not entirely clean and this contrasts with the entire structure.

We had an absolutely amazing experience during our family stay at this hotel. The environment was incredibly relaxing, very calm and quiet, with a beautiful green setting overlooking the lake. In addition to the stunning location, the spread of seafood and meat items was a delightful choice, with each dish tasting absolutely delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, this hotel is a great choice for an eco-friendly and relaxing getaway.

Clean environment with a beautiful view of the lake with a jacuzzi and sun deck to tan. This place has 2 pristine pools and the room service was immaculate with welcoming smiles from every worker. The breakfast and dinner services exceeded all my expectations with different foods each night at the buffet. Has a well equipped gym and steam rooms and saunas to stay in shape for those avid gym goers and those who like to relax. Spacious bedrooms with tables at perfect heights. Also has a well furnished bar and a lovely billiard table. This place makes the perfect spot for a couples getaway or a family vacation resort.

The room was beautiful, with a very nice view of the lake and the bathroom was amazing, the experience of having shower in the middle of the nature is so great! We also enjoyed having drinks at night in the beautiful garden in front of the lake. The breakfast and the dinner are delicious. We took a massage and it was so relaxing… a perfect place to enjoy the nature (safaris are quite near) and relax.
