6/10 Okay
Venkatesh, MCKINNEY
Travelled with family
24 Dec 2025
Pros:
1. We were there for our son's 18th birthday. They decorated the room and arranged for a cake.
2. Views of the lake is very nice
3. The food at the restaurant is very good.
Cons:
1. It is very far from everything and in the middle of nowhere. Not within walking distance of anything. The tuktuks don't usually stop in front of this place. The only tuktuk guy that is available thru the hotel is super expensive. We only took his ride once from here to the village of San Antanio and were charged $20. We came back for less than half of it by taking other tuktuks. We took a long walk to the next small place about 15 mins down the road and then got into a tuktuk from there to Pana the couple of days we were there, just to avoid the hotel tuktuk guy.
2. Extremely noisy if you are closer to the main road, which our room happened to be.
3. Very basic breakfast. They were very fussy when my wife asked for some tomatoes to put on her bread, instead of eggs, as she is fully vegetarian. Not what we expect in a place that charges US prices.
4. Take USD or local currency. Credit card has a steep surcharge (in all of Pana). They also have a bad conversion on top of it.
5. Spa is in a gazebo down below and was extremely cold on a windy day (we were there in Nov). They never told us it is almost in open air.
