### 10/10 Excellent

#### Victoria

10 Feb 2018

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

#### Wonderful, Amazing, Fantastic and Incredible Stay

We had an amazing stay. As a regular traveller I have stayed in many resorts, hotels and holiday rentals Kurulu Estate is top notch and one of the most tranquil and relaxing places I have stayed. It is very secluded, with only two rooms on the property. It is in the jungle overlooking the mountains. This place really is a treasure. The whole time my husband kept asking me, "how did you find this place?" We were upgraded to the "best room". The design of the room was gorgeous, service was amazing and the views phenomenal. The host was immensely attentive, checking in regularly and insisting we take away tea, cloves, pepper and cinnamon from his garden. This place was built with love. And most incredible of all was the DELICIOUS vegan food! We decided when our meals would be and each meal was complimentary with a buffet of around 7 different dishes for just me and my husband. Could not say more good things. Wonderful!
