A really good vacation resort where you will spend wonderful and comfortable cozy days. The people there are friendly and nice, always willing to help. Especially a girl named guitar, her smile made my day.
There is one important detail that is not mentioned in the introduction pages is that they provide free shuttle bus rides between hotel to Kamala beach, runs every 2 hours. So even though the hotel is located on the mountain, it’s still convenient to visit and hang around the beach.

Though it is nice to stay quiet however, the place have less choice for food and the overall cleanliness not so satisfactory for the price we paid. The place is quiet and kind of private. The buggy service to Kamala beach is provided free up to only 7pm, should have extended time at least up to 11pm. Food choice I would say no, as the same menu served for all breakfast, lunch n dinner. I was upset on the choice of food

A lovely boutique hotel with great service. The breakfast was good, and I loved the half buffet/half made to order style. The juice bar was great too, it was nice to be able to make your own juice in the morning. It's a bit far from anything, not really a walkable distance but there is a shuttle bus (we didn't use) and grab/bolt/taxis. I would stay again.

The room is huge, with bolcany, and I only booked the smallest room there. The bigger rooms even have their private infinity pool facing the ocean.
The bathtub has jacuzzi function so I bought bath salt to enjoy bubble bath. The serene environment made the bath even more comforting! U face greeneries only, and of course for shy ones like me, can always close curtains.
I stayed there for 2 nights and only left the hotel to Kamala beach for 2 hours to walk walk. The hotel provide shuttle bus to and from the beach. I ate all the meals in the Cradle, the restaurant there, and hadn’t repeated orders! Food there is super fresh as I'm super sensitive about the freshness of food.
If you are more adventurous, you can walk down a path to the beach which only serves this hotel. Fellow photographers would love this place. I brought a 14mm f1.8 to take landscape photos, as it has sand, rocks, waterfalls and forests. Unfortunately, I had a bad fall (totally my own fault) and hurt my dominant hand earlier and couldn't afford to get my hand wet. The hotel staff helped me to clean the wound and gave me a lot of betadine and cotton pad to change. Really very sweet of them.
Look at my handphone pictures in the hotel, already super nice. And they also have fun activities, so I did leaf folding, into fish.
The hotel staff helped to drive a buggy to help with luggage, so you don't have to lift a thing or walk much. It was the best stay I had in my life!

The hotel is very nice, quiet environment and nice sea view. The staff is very helpful. Thanks for keeping my delivery package and i really appreciate the whatsapp communication which is very convenient and quick reply👍🏻👍🏻 my husband and i were celebrating the anniversary and his birthday, surprised by the upgrade arrangement. The room with private pool access is wonderful. The breakfast is very nice, lots of choices for a la cart, would be perfect if there is decaffeinated coffee. However i found that trip.com price is higher than the hotel official price. Overall it is a very nice experience and will come back again and i will check more throughly about the price.
