I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, surrounded by trees in a peaceful area and so close to the famous Yala National Park. The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to accommodate any request. The dining experience offered several delicious dishes, and the facilities were top-notch. The only downside was the slightly limited dining options.
