Great yoga; average accommodation

6.0

The yoga shala; the yoga teachers; the garden and the beach

− We didn’t get the rooms as described ; The restaurant serves almost the same, average, food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, 7 days a week!

Un lieu calme et paisible idéale pour quelques jours de yoga/pilate

10.0

Personnel au petit soin, chambre propre nettoyée tous les jours. Très agréable de pouvoir varier entre piscine et mer, la plage étant quasiment uniquement occupée par les membres de l’hôtel. Bois avons fait les cours de yoga et pilâtes que l’on ne peut que recommander avec vue sur la mer. Massage relaxant également. Un séjour qui permet de bien couper, merci encore!

Guest review

10.0

Piękne miejsce. Odległe od miasta, na uboczu. Cisza, prywatność, spokój. Wspaniałe miejsce w środku dżungli, zielono. Urzekł nas ogródek z warzywami na terenie obiektu. Wspaniały basen wśród palm. Piękna i szeroka plaża. Dostępność masażów, zajęć jogi lub innych aktywności dodawała kolejną gwiazdkę do całości.

− jedzenie mogłoby być bardziej urozmaicone.
