The place is pleasant and quiet. The staff is kind. The yoga teachers are good. Close to the city but not noticeable, surrounded by trees and nature. I had a great time there and got the peace and quiet I needed.

Nice oasis in the big smoke
It was a great stay. The place is an oasis in the big smoke. Was very nice park like accommodation. The people were friendly and was very welcoming. The pool and was great and the yoga classes were awesome. The glowworms were magical. the only downside was that the fire alarm went off twice in our 3 days stay. The first one was at 1:30am... not much fun.... there was no communication and we found out the next morning that the fire alarm goes off all the time and no one takes any notice anymore!! we were not impressed by that but apart from that it was a nice stay and we will go there again.
