My Safari Lodge was on the edge of the jungle and incorporated the jungle into my room with open shutters enhancing the feel. It was modern, very comfortable and clean. We had wonderful lunches and all the attractions were within easy driving distance.

Pretty good value for king cabin (shared bathroom). Common areas are kept clean. Quite easy to go to various walks although would need a car. Should book tours in advance as they sold out. Also should eat at Turtle Rock cafe, the food is great there.

Paradise in the jungle
Our stay at Safari Lodge was amazing! Our cabin was very clean, & was big enough for 3 of us for 3 nights. The amenities were clean and close by. The camp kitchen also close by and a lovely spot to chat with other visitors. We loved the gardens and pool area, and just a short walk through the forest to the beach. Make sure to grab a bite at Turtle Rock cafe, and highly recommend booking a tour with Ocean Safari. Everything you need right at your doorstep. We’d love to return one day to this amazing part of the world.

The king ensuite cabin added that little bit of luxury whilst still being in a camping community setting - so happy we stayed there, and actually wish we’d stayed another night!

Relaxing holiday in paradise
The campsite was empty over Christmas, so we had all the facilities to ourselves, as well as the magnificent beach. The hut was very comfortable and more luxurious than expected. We loved sitting on the deck and watching the summer thunderstorms pass over. The camp kitchen is well equipped, bathrooms are clean and the pool is a lovely spot to cool down. Very short walk through the rainforest to the beach, which is mostly deserted and great for long evening walks. For entertainment at night, we went to PK's across the road for some dinner and drinks. A very relaxing holiday!
