Paganakan Dii Tropical Retreat

Paganakan Dii Tropical Retreat

10/10 Excellent
"Amazing place to stay on the edge of the rainforest. Our family room was very comfortable and we had a balcony which had a great view of the surrounding wildlife. The food was delicious and there was a basic but decent selection every day. Close proximity to the Orangutan Rehabilitation and Sunbear Sanctuary as well as the Rainforest Discovery Centre. Would definitely recommend staying here"
