Marimba Secret Gardens Reviews

Description

The resort is constructed from indigenous material, combined with modern elements, especially designed to being embedded into the natural environment.

All houses are built on stilts, overlooking our colourful gardens.Each house consists of its own private veranda, protected by individual arranged tropical gardens. None of the houses have private bathrooms but are in good distance to the spacious and clean bath house.

A pretty pathway of 200m – all on the same property – brings you to our pristine and untouched beach.

Our shared bath house consists of 3 bathrooms and 3 showers, all of them spacious, clean and very well looked-after.
Its unique and comfortable design fits perfectly into our natural environment.
It is in good distance to your room.

Part of being located in a remote and natural area entails not having permanent power yet. Solar panels enable us to play music in the restaurant during the day. As the sun sets we’re running on a generator to provide light and power so you can charge your devices. We recommend taking a torch with you for bathroom visits at night time.

Every night we’re having a bonfire burning, getting together and dreaming away underneath the starry sky.

Marimba has no self-catering facilities but a restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Check our food & drinks offer.

If traveling with your own computer/smartphone/tablet, you can rent a wi-fi modem. Usually there is 3G.
