One warm evening as we floated in the pool, pointing out the constellations to each other, I thought about how I'd review Forest Dream. I knew I wanted to do it justice and also wanted to keep it cliche free! However, cliche free isn't possible - this resort really is 'paradise', it really is 'heaven on earth' and it really... More

Being vegetarian has never been so great, their chef makes you the most wonderful dishes and... More

The room needs some serious updating, the walls looked a bit shabby and bathroom was not what I would expect for what we payed. I also think there was termites or something in the bed frame, because I could here something chewing inside it. Nice pool area. More

The owner wanted to build a resort in respect of the nature and environment. Challenge done with full success and taste. The resort with different cottages and atmospheres is full of little and elegant details. Rooms are beautifull, made with natural elements. Really clean and maintained. A lot of space between the cottages garantee intimity. Monkeys are jumping around while... More

I stayed at Forest Dream for two weeks this month and I simply love this place. This is my third stay there and it just keeps getting better every time. Forest Dream is located in the forest, it is away from the beach which for me is a blessing. The beach is readily available by a 15 minute walk or... More

We spent about nine days at Forest Dream, more tha expexcted. It is a very nice, well-run place with very nice staff. The place is exotic and at some distance from the hectic all-inclusive resorts - but yet with beach access. It is close to nature and worked very well for our children, not least the pool area. Recommended! More

The rooms are wonderful, the service is outstanding and the staff was very friendly. The pool was enjoyable with a bar and slide! No complaints. The stay was very much personalized. They have bikes (free) to rent, which were fun to take to the beach and to surrounding areas. More
