DO NOT STAY HERE! This resort misrepresents itself online. The bathroom was horrible! First of all, the bathrooms appear to have never been updated. There’s mold everywhere. We had a really bad leak in our bathroom. We’d walk into the bathroom and our feet would be soaked. We contacted management to try to get it fixed but were ignored. The poor front desk people were nice but nothing was done. They sent a security guard to see if he could fix it. One time a maintenance person came to look at it, after our persistent pleas, he said he was leaving to get a tool and would be back but never came back. Our entire stay we had this issue. There was at least an inch of pooled water. We asked to switch rooms because the leak was so bad but were ignored. They kept saying they would contact us but never did. I emailed management afterwards and included pictures. They said they would get back to us and one month later still haven’t contacted us. The website, including Expedia say this resort has Wifi, that is another lie! They told us at the resort they haven’t had wifi in YEARS! The mud pit advertised is so gross, it’s one little bowl with one paint brush that everyone uses. The so called thermal pools are dirty ponds and they are cold. The pool bar closes at 6pm. I would not book this resort again or recommend it to anyone. The foliage around the resort is stunning but that doesn’t make the resort good enough to stay at.

Extremely Disappointing – Poor Hygiene, False Advertising, and Unprofessional Staff As someone who works in hospitality, I was truly disbelieving of the service and condition of this resort. Upon arrival, it was obvious that the room had not been cleaned the mirror was dirty, there was mold on the wall, and gecko droppings were visible. This level of neglect and lack of hygiene is unacceptable in any accommodation. They advertised Wi-Fi in the room, but there was no Wi-Fi access in the bedroom at all. The family room did not uphold expectations it was cramped, poorly maintained, and fell far below any reasonable standard. When I brought these concerns to the reception, the staff member was rude, dismissive, and unethical. There was no apology, no attempt to make things right just an unprofessional attitude that left us completely dissatisfied. Coming from the hospitality industry myself, I was shocked at how poorly everything was handled. This resort lacks both cleanliness and basic customer care. I strongly urge future guests to reconsider booking until serious improvements are made.
