A great stay all around. Checking in and out was quite simple. The staff were super friendly. The property is in a great location as you are just a 10 minute drive away from shops, supermarkets and restaurants. We were provided with a list of restaurant recommendations in the area which I thought was a nice touch. The chalet looked exactly like the pictures, we were not disappointed. There's a lovely private beach where we could make use of free kayaks and paddle boards. Do not be alarmed at the little cat who comes to visit when you're lounging on the beach, very friendly. Would visit again.

We stayed at Milkwood for two nights and it was the best time we've had in a long time. Upon arrival we were in awe of the scenery and the view, it honestly felt like we were in the Phi Phi Islands again. It's easy and convenient to access the water, and there's even some kayak's available to be used. The evening's on the balcony with the fire burning, was one of our favourite times, as the sunset changed everything to gold. We'll be happy to return again!

It was our first time here and we absolutely loved Under Milkwood. The lagoon is perfect for kids, you can swim in it but it is shallow enough to put your feet down so I didnt have to worry. It was also very warm most of the time. The rooms are kept clean and room cleaned daily. The staff are all very friendly and a pleasure to deal with (esp in the reception). Felt like a mini resort. The location is unmatched, very secluded from the wind and such a vibe with all the boats. Plenty to do in the area. I wish they had more availability so we could have stayed longer. The last night we were moved to another cottage, it was much smaller and we didnt enjoy the location but the first one was amazing! thanks so much for a wonderful trip with great memories.

We took a middle cabin, it was a just a few meters from the beach. Loved the kayaks and the lagoon. Everything was so peaceful. No load shedding! There’s a really cute cafe with a gorgeous view just minutes away. Beautiful kitchen ware, just make sure to buy or order through the property your groceries in advance, there is no supermarket in a walking distance.

The cabins are super neat and cozy. Under Milkwood offers spectacular views over the lake through the trees. There is a private beach where one can swim and have kayaks at free use. It literally feels like one is on a tropical vacation in Mauritius.

The overall location and also the area is beautiful. The view on the lagoon is wonderful. Also the hike to the view points close by are amazing. The indoor equipment is also very great and you have a great comfy feeling there. However, our stay was disrupted by quite loud and annoying construction works onsite close to the chalets. We have not been informed in advanced, so we were surprised. The wonderful ambience was destroyed - so that you could not really relax and enjoy. Especially, our feedback to the management was not heard and no response was given yet. Very disappointing.

I stayed in a waterfront apartment for 2 nights this week and felt that I had arrived in paradise. The views are spectacular, the comfort supreme and every facility has been catered for. Quiet, comfortable , organized and spectacular setting. I couldn't have been happier !!
