    Pros +

    • Lovely pool area. Own private garden & patio area with plenty of seating & dining options.
    • We’ve been visiting the island for the last eight years and never knew about this hideaway .Great lodges it felt like you were in some exotic forest :The pool is probably one of the best on the island.If you want to get away from reality this is the place.Speaking to other guests they were all people who had stayed here many times,what better recommendation.
    • Quirky Balinese style hut in a secluded spot. Nice vibe within the complex. Bar and pool are nice.Helpful and friendly staff. We pulled up and checking in and were away on hired bikes within 10 minutes whilst the room was being prepared. Central location to cycle to main towns within the bottom half of the island. Nice artisan bakery at supermarket at the bottom of the road.

    Cons -

    • The bathrooms are narrow so the loo is slightly problematic but caused many giggles
    • Late checkin and early checkout isn’t great for a short stay to be able to enjoy the ambiance of the facility The hut we stayed in was very basic, a little tired versus some of the other huts closer to the pool, and hot during the July heat with little ventilation. The hut was functional however and did have a good holiday vibe about it, although not a fence one. Was disappointed a cleaning fee for the room is not included, even for a single nights stay.
    • Our cabin was possibly the least desirable. Near the road and between other camping sites with lots of late night music and festivities. Lots of sand in the enclave. Coffee machine leaking so not really usable. Slightly out of town which not obvious from the booking info.Pool beautiful. We had a lovely time though and would re visit.

    The site itself was beautiful. Cabins had a lot of privacy. Lovely pool. Nice that they had bike hire. It was a very short bike ride to St Martin De Re. Had a lovely massage on site. The shared areas were well kept and had a nice vibe.

    I think the fact that the second bedroom was up a very steep flight of stairs should be highlighted on booking. It felt unsafe. Would defo not be suitable for young children or the elderly. The pool was often closed and despite being advertised as heated was quite cold. There were a lot of extras that were not made known on booking. The advertised sauna and jacuzzi was very expensive, there was a cleaning fee and payment if you wanted a TV - so lots of unexpected extras. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The owner, however, could improve on her customer service skills. Her vibe put a bit of a dampner on the place and would probably be the main reason why I would not revisit, which is a shame.

    Central location , great pool. Relaxed atmosphere Really lovely staffGreat holiday

    8TimPosted on: 9-3-2023

    Small so not crowded. Fantastic pool and some good extra facilities like ping pong/pool

    Fairly basic but comfortable accommodation. We were 5 in one cabin so bit of a squeeze fitting 3 beds upstairs.

    8JacintaPosted on: 8-2-2023

    The pool and the bar.

    There was a really over powering smell of dogs in the lodge, quiet sickening to be honest. Lots of dog hairs aswel on the curtains and couch. The lady at reception found me annoying because I could not speak French so she just did not bother trying to communicate.

    Nice chalet but a bit small and dated... But adequate. 2km from St Martin.Swimming pool nice.. Approx 15. X 10mBar area nice but small.We only stayed 2 nights as we were on a road trip.

    Our chalet was a bit dated but OK for what we needed.

    9ChristophePosted on: 10-14-2022

    The pool is great! The cottages are very well set up and quiet. The green space with the tables and games at the back is welcome, especially if you come as a group. The environment and the staff ensure that everyone has an excellent stay.

    Minor quibbles: extra towels for the pool would have been good (don't forget to bring your own!). Access to the additional beds in the cottages is via steep staircase, not a problem per se, but be mindful of it if you have very small children.

    Lovely setting in the woods, with relaxing and pretty pool area. Good sized cottage for 2-4 people, with all the necessary equipment for self catering (except bottle opener ;-)

    Cleaning (at end of stay) is not included and while this is presented as an option for additional fee it would be preferable to include in the price. The price for sepia a little high.

    Great staff, a lovely pool and amazing location. This was our second visit and unfortunately we were only able to book for one night. We'll definitely return for longer to make the most of the facilities.

    Nothing really, its a little expensive especially as we could only secure a single night but most places on the island are.

    10MarekPosted on: 7-28-2022

    It is peaceful and full of green place. Nice pool. Good drinks in a bar.

    9SusanPosted on: 7-5-2022

    The cottage was quite quirky and unusual but very comfortable. The garden was a lovely surprise as it was very private and gave a pleasant outlook although insect repellent was useful in the evening. The bed was very comfortable and the crisp white sheets were delightful. I had the best sleep in this place! There was plenty of storage and a very pleasant separate seating area with a small sofa.

    The kitchen equipment was a bit of a random selection of pots and pans. We did manage to cook ok but it was a bit of a challenge at first when there was no really obvious pan to use for rice or pasta. Plates and cutlery were all fine.

    8ChrisPosted on: 3-26-2022

    location was very good. Accommodation was clean and warm. staff were friendly and helpful.

    It looked scruffy when we first went in and we were disappointed that the swimming pool obviously wasn’t in use as it had not been cleared of leaves. The general area looked like it could do with a little TLC as there was green mould on the wooden garden walls. Which was a shame because it gave a poor first impression. The staff were far better than the first appearance led you to expect and once you overcame the first impression the whole was good

    Beautiful location. Wonderful amenities and super friendly people. We absolutely loved it and will come again!

    Nothing, it was perfect
