“We travelled by car to the resort because our boat transfer was cancelled due to poor weather.
We finally arrived at the resort down a dirt track and parked under a lean to.
We were greeted by a young gentleman who said he would take us to our room.
I had to ask if we were in the right place as it looked nothing like the photos on the net. He assured me it was.
As we progressed, it soon became obvious that we had come in the back entrance.
Our feelings went from total disappointment to one of elation.
Check in was simple and efficient.
Our room was clean and spacious.
I could comment that there was not enough light in the room, but the intimacy it provides is all part of the charm of the place.
The staff were most helpful in all areas and their genuine happiness could not be faulted.
Like most of Myanmar at this stage, the SMALL imperfections in most places when compared with other 5star establishments in the rest of the world are what makes its charm.
The breakfast offering is most probably a bit average but adequate.
We would happily stay again and have no problem recommending it for any other couple.”
