From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and made to feel at ease. The grounds were perfectly groomed and maintained with spectacular views of the volcano. Our favorite was ordering food and then eating in the garden.we stayed in one of the towers. The room was small but had everything we needed. Food was fresh and delicious! Great cocktails and they even had an IPA available. 10/10 would return and recommend to anyone staying in the area.

The place was absolutely amazing, truly enchanting. The views from the property were amazing and the air was always filled with the aroma of flowers. The food was average compared to the food in town. One suggestion for the staff would be to man the front desk 24/7 for guests.

Excellent in every way

Bambuda is fantastic. The location is excellent with breathtaking views of the mountains & countryside. The food in the restaurant is excellent & there are numerous options at all times of the day. The service at the front desk & at the restaurant are prefect: helpful, friendly, & enthusiastic. Taxi rides from the hotel to a variety of destinations are easy to get & inexpensive. I had a cabin with a balcony. It felt like a cabin in the mountains but with strong hot water in the shower.
