I had a truly wonderful stay at this resort, made memorable by its stunning location amidst lush greenery and serene mountains. The luxurious tree houses and spacious well-furnished rooms provided a comfortable escape into nature. The service from the team was commendable, making our trip more enjoyable. However, I felt that the dining options could have better reflected the local cuisine and culture, which was a slight letdown. Overall, it's a fantastic place for a family getaway but has room for improvement in the dining department.

My stay at Porcupine Castle was truly memorable! Nestled in a breathtaking location amidst sprawling coffee plantations, the resort offered stunning valley views and a serene ambiance. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, although we faced a few issues with insects. The staff went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable, which was a definite highlight. However, the dining options were a bit inconsistent, and I found some meals to be average compared to the price. Overall, it's a great choice for those wanting a peaceful retreat in nature.
