Pleasant ##### Artur Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Shaun 8 Dec 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities This property is well maintained and staff are great. It is a little far from town and the road was not the best. The room did not have air conditioning or a dehumidifier so it was not as comfortable as it could have been. Did not use the pool but it looked nice. Breakfast was great and the service staff were friendly and accommodating. ##### Shaun Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Shanmugaraja 3 Jan 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Our stay at Fondavela was great. The staffs are very friendly and nice. We should give 5 star for that. Our room was alright. We did see some bugs but given that it is surrounded by forest we can understand that. The restaurant on property was good. We played pool at the bar and relaxed. ##### Shanmugaraja ### 10/10 Excellent #### Travis 9 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you want nature & tranqulity, this is a GREAT option. You see monkeys, various birds, and lizards around the property grounds. Only a 20 minute walk to Cari Canca bird reservation. Only complaint is they play loud music by the pool area which disrupts the peaceful environment. Lodging is large with high quality bathroom. Staff is kind & profession. ##### Travis Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### marie andree 30 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay- staff at restaurant/bar super nice Fantastic breakfast - staff at bar and breakfast were 5 star- so helpful and polite. Front desk staff was ok. Tv didn’t work and they told us a random excuse (tv’s working at the bar but not in the rooms?) - seems like many rooms didn’t have a tv that worked. Rooms were amazing - lots of space and clean. Towels provided for the pool. Again, staff at restaurant were A1\. ##### marie andree Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Subhash 11 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The path to the rooms is not paved causing damage to luggage wheels. There are no other restaurants nearby for lunch or dinner. Very limited items for breakfast. Most of the staff were friendly and helpful. ##### Subhash Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Hasan 30 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful Property! Nice updated rooms and bathrooms. Animals on the property including monkeys in their trail. Need clearer instructions on where to park for some rooms. Theres abit of walk from the car to the room. Breakfast service was good and front desk was helpful! Alot of noise of the rain and wind inside the room which did wake me up a couple of times! ##### Hasan Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LONI 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My family and I had a great stay here. The hotel room was clean, beds were comfortable, property was beautiful and the included breakfast was delicious. The best part was how friendly everyone was from the check in desk to the restaurant staff. Will definitely stay here again ##### LONI Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Wyndham Tamarindo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Wyndham-Tamarindo.h10356916.Hotel-Information) > > [Jardín del Edén Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tamarindo-Hotels-Jardin-Del-Eden-Boutique-Hotel-Adults-Only.h2818928.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Taunton by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taunton-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Taunton.h3697.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenal Observatory Lodge & Trails](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Arenal-Observatory-Lodge-Spa.h11820519.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Magic Mountain SPA & Conference center](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Hotel-Magic-Mountain-SPA-Conference-Center.h1636277.Hotel-Information) > > [El Remanso Rainforest Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-El-Remanso-Lodge.h11640675.Hotel-Information) > > [Monteverde Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteverde-Hotels-Monteverde-Lodge-Gardens-By-Boena.h4497846.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Lapas Jungle Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaco-Hotels-Villa-Lapas-Jungle-Village.h1330482.Hotel-Information) > > [Azura Beach Resort - All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Samara-Hotels-Azura-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h20586535.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Luna Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/La-Fortuna-Hotels-Casa-Luna-Hotel-Spa.h2305532.Hotel-Information) > > [ Jupiter Lisboa Hotel – Rooftop & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lisbon-District-Hotels-Jupiter-Lisboa-Hotel.h9329321.Hotel-Information) > > [Makanda by the Sea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Quepos-Hotels-Makanda-By-The-Sea.h2328562.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Heliconias Nature Inn & Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Penas-Blancas-Hotels-Heliconias-Nature-Lodge.h8386216.Hotel-Information) > > [Steigenberger Resort Ras Soma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hurghada-Hotels-Steigenberger-Resort-RAS-Soma.h64470401.Hotel-Information) > > [Poas Volcano Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vara-Blanca-Hotels-Poas-Volcano-Lodge.h5259118.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Prestwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/6392/flights-from-prestwick) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Aqaba (AQJ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/aqj/london-to-aqaba) > > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Accra (ACC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/acc/glasgow-to-accra) ### Activities > [Things to do in Lopud Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Lopud-Island.d6069866.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Alicante Province Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alicante-Province.d6023825.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General
