It was lovely to wake to the jungle sounds and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast (included) was excellent and the staff are a very nice group of people. Of course you can't beat the amazing view from the large lawn facing the ocean. There is also a safe swimming area at the foot of the hill to the left of the path. We had dinner the first night at the restaurant and though it was tasty, we thought it was over priced. Suggestion: The website needs to be updated. We reserved because we wanted a "sea view" tent. Of the 3 jungle tent alternatives offered to us, only one was acceptable (#2). Number 3 had no corresponding toilet/shower unit and number 1, buried in the greenery, felt claustrophobic. ##### Ann Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 10 Oct 2021 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness #### Mixed feelings Chalet was clean and bed comfortable. Main complex not so much. Windows and handles of chairs were dirty. The main complex furniture is old and feels dirty. Our stay was for 7 days and 5 out of those days there was a serious shortage of variety on food and drinks. The food we receiced was ok. The staff is very friendly and try their best, but can't do much to please the guests without stock. We booked at Sky Island because it has an on-site restaurant, but ended up eating at other restaurants due to almost nothing on the menu being available. We celebrated our anniversary during our stay and the staff went to a lot of effort to try and make it special and catered for special requests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ryujiro 1 Jan 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Ryujiro Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Arnaud 20 Oct 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing iew ##### Arnaud Stayed 1 night in Oct 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 31 Jan 2020 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed our stay in a deluxe tent.

When we arrived, the windows were open and the anti mosquitos protections were damaged. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis 26 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Dennis Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Motel One Brussels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brussels-Hotels-Motel-One-Brussels.h7614656.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Krakow Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Krakow-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Krakow-Airport.h9027396.Hotel-Information) > > [The Plaza - A Fairmont Managed Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-The-Plaza-Hotel.h28044.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Costa del Sol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Costa-Del-Sol-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d11102-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Mahón](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mahon-Hotels.d180560.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Plough Bicester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bicester-Hotels-Jacob-Plough.h15526812.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Tulum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Tulum-Hotels.s50-0-d182189.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [University of Oxford, Jesus College - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-University-Of-Oxford.h30551506.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Maui](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maui-Hotels.d180073.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Barceló Raval](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-Hotels-Barcelo-Raval.h1934216.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Golders Green](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Golders-Green-London-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-n6144890-0-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Santorini Mozambique](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vilanculos-Hotels-Santorini-Mozambique.h10653639.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Siwa Oasis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Siwa-Oasis-Hotels.0-l6112294-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Azura Benguerra Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benguerra-Island-Hotels-Azura-Benguerra-Island.h1797361.Hotel-Information) > > [Die Port van Cleve Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-Die-Port-Van-Cleve-Hotel.h1177.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Much Wenlock](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Much-Wenlock-Hotels.d602311.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [SleeperzHotels Hotels in Great Britain](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Great-Britain-Hotels-Sleeperz-Hotels.0-0-d553248623451644244--bSleeperzHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Manises (VLC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/vlc/london-to-valencia) > > [Flights from New York (JFK) to Atlantic City (ACY)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/acy/new-york-to-atlantic-city) > > [Flights from Crumlin (BFS) to Bilbao (BIO)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bfs/bio/belfast-to-bilbao) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Noain (PNA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/pna/manchester-to-pamplona) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Kilmarnock](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Kilmarnock.d55342-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > [Things to do in Augsburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Augsburg.d306.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in El Arenal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-El-Arenal.d184241.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Hiroshima](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Hiroshima.d6128225.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Gravesend Gurdwara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gravesend-Gurdwara-Gravesend.d6280304.Attraction) > > [Hastings Country Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hastings-Country-Park-Hastings.d6261035.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Tanygrisiau](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tanygrisiau.dx3000382982)
