"We traveled as a family of four with two young children. The acommodation was fine, had all amenities and nice shower. The hammocks were really good for the kids. Location really good. The only drawback was that the service wasnt particularly friendly. We also didnt realise until after booking that they will add and extra 19% tax on top of the advertised fee so please be aware of this."
