This property exceeded our expectations. The friendly owners communicated with us through the whole stay via whatsapp. It was clean and had everything we needed. The scenery was beyond beautiful with the sound of the river just outside. Also the illusion of being in a tree house, it was just phenominal. During this pandemic, it was really a breath of fresh air. We will definitely book again and tell our family, friends and colleagues. Thank you for such an amazing stay, your property is just top notch and customer service best ever!

Nous avons vu des animaux près du logement ( girafes , singes ..) , on ne capte pas sur place et la wifi ne fonctionne pas très bien , il n’y a pas de table à l’intérieur du logement pour manger ( à part une table basse ) il faut bien 30 minutes pour faire les 10 derniers kilomètres car c’est un chemin .
