Namu Garden Hotel & Spa - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"Let me start off by saying this. This is the most beautiful and well managed property I have been to. The staff was extremely nice. The manager Angie was a huge help for my wife and I. We had the luxury suite with pool and fell in love. The breakfast we had every day was excellent and our servers were extremely nice, tended to our needs and were always ready to help. No complaints at all. The room was amazing. Super clean, and the staff as well. The security staff at night was also extremely friendly as well. My wife and I would come back late at night and there was always someone there at the entrance. I would highly recommend and I probably will be coming back."

Many wild agoutis wander the grounds, and there’s a charming jungle path to a private beach nearby. Breakfast included."
