Bel endroit pour séjourner
Villa avec des employés très engagés à assurer notre bien-être. Belle vue pour le coucher du soleil. La piscine, mud bath et les thermales sont très bien entretenus. Point négatif : le transport vers les chambres se fait en véhicule à moteur, ce qui est tout à fait compréhensible étant donné l’éloignement des chambres par rapport à la réception, au restaurant et à la piscine. Cependant, d’un point de vue environnemental, ce n’est pas idéal. L’équipe devrait envisager de se doter d’une flotte de véhicules électriques.

Remote rainforest relaxation.
Very relaxing and very remote. Great place if you want to escape the crowd but the menu and dinning options will get old after a few days so I would not make a week out it. Best canopy sunsets ever.

Beautiful place. Food was eh… and only one restaurant was open. It was pouring when we were there, and the ceiling by our door was leaking. The hot springs and mud baths were fantastic.

the linens were in terrible condition, they felt like sandpaper. I have never encounter worst quality linens in any hotel and I have spent a lot of time in hotels. they also had bed bugs, I have many bites. to make matters worst, we were low on gasoline and asked I they could sell us some since it is a very remote area, and they sold us one gallon for 25 dollars, which I found abusive.

A nice resort, but at a dead-end
The resort was everything it described and the on site restaurant was DELICIOUS. But Google maps had told us there were roads available for getting to other places but there are not! Know that once you get to Bourinquen the only way to get anywhere else is to all the way back to the main highway.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
While the resort itself is quite lovely, you need to understand that it is not close to anything, with a challenging road to get there, and only one option for dinner. It is ideal if you are looking for a quiet retreat. The property is stunning - small chalet/villas dotting the hillside, overlooking the gardens, the canopy and the mountains. The villas are great - fresh and clean - with a balcony for you to sit on with your morning coffee. The pool is also great & well maintained. There is a wet bar poolside and a snack bar over the steps next to the thermal pools, mud bath. However, visitors - especially families- need to understand that the wet bar and snack bar closed at 4pm (not sure if this is because it's off season) and we could only eat dinner by reserving at the one restaurant, even though it said there were three restaurants. Food was good but once you finish dinner there is nothing more to really do, as the pools close at 8pm. This is all lovely if you are looking for peace and quiet but 3 days was too much for us. The grounds are perfect for bird and monkey watching! A huge WOW for the ziplining which my 15 absolutely loved! One last thing - if you are going to drive in, be warned that 15 km of uphill, unpaved road isn't for the faint of heart. Ensure you are driving a 4X4. After taking a road trip to the beaches, we couldn't imagine doing any more day trips. Overall, peace & beauty, but two days with a family, is enough.

Jewel in the rainforest
The property is lovely - made up of bungalows. Wel-manicured yet in the rainforest. The staff is great and super friendly. The real only drawback is that it is in the middle of nowhere so after a couple of days, you have exhausted the activities and the menu at the restaurant. Also, it is very hilly but you can catch a ride in one of the resort's pick up trucks. Highly recommend the horseback riding and ziplining tour. (Reasonably priced activity too)
