“Lakeside luxury can be found at this newly opened French owned retreat where space, privacy and first class service are to be found. Best for couples.”

Hotel review

Weaving through shady palm groves you arrive at this beautifully constructed eco retreat beside a magnificent lake with stunning uninterrupted 180 degree view. Accommodation comprises 3 spacious deluxe cottages - two with their own private wooden cabanas where guests can enjoy flavoursome well portioned meals in privacy or relax undercover on comfortable sun loungers or in one of the garden's double hammocks while watching kingfishers dive bomb into the water and green-legged herons prowling the mud for worms. The emphasis is on impeccable service and laidback barefoot luxury in a wonderfully peaceful environment. Breakfast is served in the main building through the grounds past medicinal herbs such as tulsi planted in the shape of the OM symbol. Antique stone deity sculptures, heavy wooden furniture and intricately carved wooden details make this an impressive design venture co-created by Belgian couple Jan & Christel Arryn. A truly special spot to properly unwind.
