"Es handelt sich um ein riesieges Holzgebäude,das jemand vor mehreren Jahren mit viel Liebe gebaut hat. Es liegt abseits der Straße auf einem Mischgelände aus Kuhwiesen u. Restwald. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, rustikal und nach aussen offen, so dass man abends- wenn man nicht von Moskitos zerfressen werden will- kein Licht benutzen sollte. Das Personal wirkte unmotiviert, unfreudlich u. wenig hilfsbereit. Beim Einchecken bekommt man direkt eine Liste mit Aktivitäten, gezeigt u. natürlich die...

"Exceptional! Everything about this place was better than advertised. Extremely comfortable with a beautiful Bohemian vibe. The only issue we had was with the city’s road barrier that prevented us from direct access to the street. You will absolutely love this place!"

"Maison isolée dans un cadre calme, malgré le bruit des voitures sur la route plus bas. Il ne faut pas avoir peur de partager la maison avec les insectes - ça fait partie de l’expérience ! La propreté globale n’était pas optimale, mais en général le séjour était agréable. "

Riverside Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property right on the river. There are so many beautiful birds and gardens. A sloth hug out in the tree right outside the door. It was never more than 6 meters above the ground. Great closeup interaction. Just after midday a group of 30 plus monkeys slowly passed thru the trees on the riverbank. The host prepared dinner and breakfast and it was delicious. Rooms are very very clean with cold AC. Outdoor kitchen has ample space and a great place to converse with other guests. I took a refreshing swim in the river. Quiet and peaceful. The owners make you feel at home. "
