Great place for pictures

Pros, if you are looking for great Instagram or social media pictures, this is definitely the place. The restaurant was beautiful, the food was excellent and the service was fantastic in the restaurant. We did not experience any of the problems we read about as far as water or the hot tub. We had hot water and the hot tub worked great! Cons, you will hear chickens at night, and you will hear your neighbors. The biggest con was that we arrived one hour early and our cabin was ready however we had to pay $25 extra just to get in one hour early which I didn’t really think was very good customer service as our room was ready. Overall, a very cute property and definitely worth the stay. We did get wonderful pictures here!

Perfect place to rest

The hotel is beautiful, well taken care. The service is outstanding. This place could had have 5 stars, if their food was better. That is our only complaint, the food was just ok. But everything else deserve an excellent score, we are definitely coming back

After careful research, I chose cabin #5 which portrayed photos to be over the water. What I received was a handicap accessible cabin at the very top - on the same level as the parking with zero privacy. The view was partially obscured with trees and far from the water, unlike the other cabins below. I was extremely disappointed as this listing was not accurately portrayed. The service was interesting to say the least. We were told that there was no more drinking water to purchase (Absurd for a hotel). The next morning, I asked the host if breakfast was included, and he responded “do you not remember what I told you yesterday?” …Quite funny to hear on my vacation. Upon departure, I was confronted by the same host asking me if the stains on the towels were from our make up… Absolutely not! The towels were previously stained with what looked like rust/dirty water. It felt as though they were looking for something to try and pin on me. The experience was unpleasant and I felt somewhat antagonized. On a more positive note; the cabin ended up being a lot of fun. The view from the third and second floor were beautiful and the amenities were lovely. The kayaking was a huge plus! (Even though the host asked if we left the kayaks in the water?? Implying I lack enough brain cells to just let the kayaks float away) it was just a weird energy overall but we made the best of it. Make sure to bring your own water unless you don’t mind drinking sink water!

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Ibuku. The place is a dream and the views are so beautiful it’s almost unreal. Customer service was top notch, we traveled with my mom and did not realize there were a lot of steps, they moved us to a different cabin without hesitation to make her stay more comfortable, also brought breakfast to the cabin. The surroundings are full of nature, my daughter was in love with their dogs 🌺.
