I had a lovely weekend at this resort with a beautiful riverside location, offering a peaceful ambiance and clean amenities. The rooms were spacious but showed signs of wear and technical issues, especially with the AC and hot water. Although the staff was polite and efficient, they need to enhance their dining service and communication skills. Overall, it's a good value for the scenic setting, but improvements in maintenance and the dining experience would make it even better.

I had a perfect holiday at this resort surrounded by stunning mangroves and a scenic water body. The individual cottages offered breathtaking views and the hospitality from the staff, combined with delicious food, made my stay truly memorable. However, the resort could benefit from better upkeep, as some facilities were not well-maintained, affecting the overall experience.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The location was beautiful by the river, but the room experience did not live up to expectations, especially considering the price. The staff were polite and tried their best, but the dining options were quite limited and not very satisfying. I appreciated the amenities like the swimming pool, though it could use better upkeep. Overall, it's a nice spot for relaxing if you don't mind some shortcomings.
