"I liked that the property was bigger than it seemed on the outside. The time that I went was perfect because it was low tourism season and you could eat and walk around the resort without a lot of people there. The staff was very helpful and I didn't realize that there was a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel so make sure you book that. There is also a free shuttle that takes you into town at certain times and picks you up. Great way to get out and explore the area, but once you figure out how to get comfortable, it's a simple walk back to the hotel. There are multiple pools on the property (I think 2) and that was great for those days I wanted to go to the pool, but didn't want to be surrounded by a lot of people."
"I choose hotels by the breakfast buffet. Merry Riverside's breakfast buffet is outstanding. I had American style bacon with fried eggs on fresh croissants. Best breakfast I have had in a long time. I'll return."
"Very central Location and super helpful manager (Thom). My room was very large, cleaned daily and also quite dark. Be aware that the shower and toilet are all one space -sort of like camper-style. Breakfast is good with several choices. I would stay here again to be close to everything but still have the quiet."
"I recently had a fantastic stay at this hotel, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed with the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The highlight of my mornings was definitely the breakfast, it was absolutely delicious!
In addition to the breakfast, the food from the hotel restaurant was really good because they actually have traditional food.
My room was another highlight of my stay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I loved the quality of the sheets; I felt well-rested and relaxed throughout my visit.
This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way, and I look forward to returning in the future!"
"have had the great fortune of being a guest at Rosewood on numerous occasions, and each visit reminds me why I always look forward to returning.
This most recent stay was for three nights, and once again, the experience was exceptional. I could easily make a lengthy list of reasons why Rosewood continues to stand out, but for me, it always comes back to two things: the architectural richness of the property, and above all, the extraordinary hospitality of the people who bring it to life.
The Rosewood team has a rare ability to make you feel not simply accommodated, but genuinely cared for. Every detail feels intentional, every interaction thoughtful, and every moment quietly refined. There is a sense that the entire team is there with one purpose — to enrich your visit in a way that feels effortless, gracious, and deeply personal.
The property itself offers everything a traveler could hope for when seeking serenity in the heart of nature. Surrounded by a canopy of lush trees, natural gardens, and the peaceful sound of a tranquil stream running through the property, Rosewood creates a sanctuary that feels both elegant and restorative.
I am already excited to return again next year.
My sincere thanks to the entire Rosewood team, and to the remarkable General Manager, Mr. Jonathan, whose leadership is clearly reflected in every aspect of the guest experience. He and his team ensure that a visit to Rosewood is not merely a stay, but a lasting memory."
