Traveled with group
Owner was a super kind guy. Room was small, dirty and full of bugs. Felt very over priced. Restaurant had good food, hard to communicate as no staff speaks english but its understandable! No shuttle or way to transport into town. We had to hitch hike and we ended up leaving early cause it was so inconveniently located. Place has lots of potential. Could be a super rad get away/ party place with some love.

Run down
Hibiscus Garden is managed by well meaning volunteers with a limited budget and is located in an ever growing jungle next to a muddy bay. The saving grace was the excellent fish served for dinner. All in all, a disappointing and over priced experience. Only stayed one night rather than the two for which we had reserved.Some guests in the communal kitchen were too loud until late into the night right under one of the rooms our party occupied.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This is a remote jungle getaway that is authentic.
The lack of amenities in this remote location is quickly made up for by friendly staff and fellow travelers. The chef is amazing and makes up fantastic meals at a reasonable price in this rustic getaway best suited for backpackers and seasoned travelers.
