Stayed for 2 nights. One of the nights featured another group playing loud music until midnight and then drunkenly screaming and shrieking until after 1am. Also no air conditioning and lots of hungry mosquitoes-- my wife and I each got about 20 bites. Staff was friendly but not around except for the hour around check-in/out. One of the staff agreed to do a load of laundry for us since we weren't allowed to use the laundry machines ourselves as advertised. There was also no real common space in our suite-- just a small built-in couch a few feet from a small refrigerator. The outdoor shower was nice, except for the bugs. And I didn't mind the rustic nature. But my wife was overwhelmed by the lack of air conditioning, the noisy neighbors, and the bugs.

The property was surprisingly appealing, the photos didn’t do much justice. The outside bath and shower so tranquil, the Balinese deco stone paths stunning. Would definitely be back. Only issue experienced was loud music on the street not sure if it was house party or bar, so did break the peace but not the fault of the property, the cabin above dragonfly cabin could look down on you bathing but we didn’t experience privacy being affected.

It is a different vibe. It’s like our staying in a cottage in the jungle. Therefore it is rustic which is fine. It was surface clean. What was bad was what I would call deep cleaning. The fans had not been cleaned n a long time. There were a lot of spider webs on the ceilings and corners. The light fixtures were like the fans. Tje curtains were people are opening with their hands were very dirty. The couch thing was so hard.

Loved the whole vibe of this property, did not really want to leave this little oasis. Biggest issue that it is so far from Melbourne and I cannot make it a more regular getaway, The gentle sound of water falling, the luscious gardens, rustle of wildlife as you walk the paths, incense provided for use when chilling on the balcony, all encourage calmness and peace.

Very cool property but it was very much in need of a deep cleaning - a scary amount of dust in the vents and slotted doors. The cabinets were dirty too. Corners on the floor were in need of some detailed cleaning as well as the furniture outside. Otherwise it was a cool place for sure. The camp behind it got a little noisy at night…
