Reviews and Ratings
This hotel is perfect for those who love nature and tranquility, nestled in the forest's heart yet conveniently close to downtown. While the rooms were spacious and modern, the hot Hawaiian air made it slightly uncomfortable at times. The service, however, was exceptional, with staff willing to assist with any request. The hotel dining offered delicious home-baked pastries and fresh local fruits, a true delight. The facilities were top-notch, providing everything you need for a relaxing stay.
Had a wonderful stay at this hotel by the rainforest! The rooms were cozy with a TV and breakfast included, though the air conditioning was only in the public salon, not in the bedroom. The service was top-notch, with the staff willing to help with any request from laundry to arranging tours. The location was convenient, not far from the city center, but a bit far from everything else. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the home-baked pastries. Overall, great value for money with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, it's close to nature in the jungle, near various activities, and also conveniently close to the city center. The rooms were spacious and modern, though not ideal that breakfast was only served in the public salon in the hot Hawaiian air and for paid WiFi, but overall a great experience.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean, but I was a bit disappointed that breakfast was only served in the public salon and not in the bedroom, and the paid WiFi was an inconvenience. The service was great, with staff ready to help with any request, including laundry, newspaper service, and tours/ticket assistance.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. The rooms were spacious and modern, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining options were a bit lacking, and the Wi-Fi had additional charges.
