"Really enjoyed our short stay and visiting this area. Walkable distance from the station and lake.

"La Terra Resort is a unique and beautiful crafted, peaceful boutique hotel that we had a delight to stay at during our outdoors exploration, and trek along parts of the Nakesando Trail.
La Terra Resort didn’t disappoint, nestled amongst a beautiful quiet valley setting, tucked under the edge of the forest canopy and surrounded by farmed land, land that served to us our daily meals, with fresh homegrown produce.
La Terra Resort’s owner Silva and his fantastic staff, each went out of their way...
"This hotel is located close to a main road in this district. So many cars are driven in day time, but to stay here was pleasant because there is not too much sounds in tgg. A mac is next to this hotel and other restaurants are around this hotel. A Big temple is closed this hotel."
