We didn't have any service issues here (per previous reviews), and we were pleasantly surprised by the accommodation. The hotel had lots of different types of rooms, from local-style rustic bungalows to hotel rooms to fancy new ensuite bungalows. We got one hotel room and one new bungalow, and both were perfectly serviceable. The new bungalow had sealed windows, a... More

We stayed for 2 nights, in order to explore the national park. Our bungalow was right at the top of the hill, and behind the restaurant. It was a steep walk up, but that was not any issue for us. The staff don't really speak any English, so this can lead to some confusion, but we didn't find them rude.... More

We arrived at Manja to discover there'd been a mistake with our reservation (not their fault). We very much wanted a bungalow; the lady said there was only 1 double bed in each. (We were 3 traveling together.) I said no problem, one of us would sleep in our sleeping bag. She said "no. Only two people; you have to... More

Gosh, how different things can be. 6 of us - 5 over 60 and 1 under 30 stayed here for 2 nights. Firstly the restaurant was great, prawn kebabs, zebu and sauteed veges and superb flambee pancakes, very friendly staff. The rooms - 2 bungalos and one room were all okay. NO problems with wildlife, and we all slept well.... More

I actually didn't stay at this hotel....I saw the room and kept on walking up the road to a cleaner place. Having read a blog of someone being robbed here I could only picture it as something that could easily happen. THIS IS NOT A HOTEL. What it is is a collection of Malagy-style homes with NO windows but only... More
