Beautiful lush tropical grounds. Kids loved the pool, hot tubs and easy walk to the rope swing. In a quiet area away from town, but a bit far if you don't have a car. Sometimes it felt like we were the only guests there. Good value, especially with breakfast included.

Good facilities and location
Nice family owned hotel with good facilities. Good pool area and restaurants prices are good.
Breakfast is quite boring, three courses to choose from.
Rooms are very basic, a bit worn down.
The surroundings are nice, the garden very green and has view to the volcano.
Service in the reception was excellent, wonderful female receptionist.
