Common criticisms
Mosquitoes And Insects
A significant issue for many guests was the prevalence of mosquitoes and flies, which affected their ability to enjoy outdoor areas. The hotel provided mosquito spray, but it was not sufficient to address the problem. One guest remarked, "The biggest issue was the huge number of mosquitoes and flies. We could hardly use the outdoor areas at all."
Room Conditions
Some guests noted that certain rooms, particularly in the bungalows, needed refurbishment. Issues such as noisy air conditioning units and outdated bathrooms were mentioned. Despite these concerns, the larger size of the bungalow rooms was appreciated. "The room needed some refurbishment, especially the bathroom," a guest commented.
Language Barriers
Language barriers were a concern for some guests, as not all staff members spoke or understood English well. This occasionally led to communication difficulties, particularly at the reception. Despite this, the staff's friendliness often mitigated these issues.
