Review by hotel critic
The fully equipped kitchen allowed me to prepare meals easily, and I particularly appreciated the thoughtful touches like cookware and kitchen utensils that made our stay feel like home. The cozy sitting area, with its stunning views of the surrounding rainforest, became a favorite gathering spot for my family, fostering quality time together. the complimentary tea and coffee facilities were a delightful bonus, especially during the chilly evenings spent by the well-stocked fireplace. The attentive hosts even returned a piece of forgotten jewelry promptly, showcasing their commitment to excellent guest service. The Fernglen Forest Retreat is a gem of a destination for anyone looking for a serene getaway, and I cannot recommend it highly enough!
