    gorgeous pool
    attentive staff
    spacious room
    slipping rug
    tricky shower

    The moment we arrived at Uga Riva, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality. The greeting with traditional betel leaves and coconut pancakes immediately set the tone for our stay. Our Deluxe Room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and offered stunning views, making it a perfect retreat. The hotel grounds were immaculate, with a gorgeous pool that we loved. Special shoutout to the attentive staff who helped us arrange tuk-tuks for our outings. The food was delicious, particularly the prawn green Thai curry, although I found it a bit pricier than local spots. One downside—the rug in our room was a slipping hazard, and adjusting the shower temperature was tricky, leading to some unfortunate burns.

    stunning pool
    amazing staff
    slippery rug

    Uga Riva was the perfect finish to our trip! The staff made our stay special, even surprising us with a birthday cake. The pool and gardens were stunning. Just watch out for the slippery rug in the room! I'd definitely stay again.

    6.0

    The property stands out with its pristine white design, which is quite a stunning sight as you enter. The Superior Double Room offered comfortable beds and scenic views that truly made for a relaxing getaway.

    Accessing the hotel can be a bit tricky due to the rough unsealed roads, making it feel quite isolated, especially after heavy rains. In the room, the rug posed a slipping hazard, and the shower's temperature control was frustratingly finicky, potentially leading to burns.

    welcoming staff
    isolated location

    I was truly impressed by the warm welcome from the dedicated staff. They greeted me with traditional betel leaves and coconut pancakes, creating an inviting atmosphere. The Superior Double Room was beautifully decorated and provided a serene escape with its comfortable bed and scenic views.

    The location was a bit isolated, making it challenging to explore the nearby attractions without transport.

    great service but minor issues

    The staff provided exceptional service! ! They set up a beautiful poolside table for my dinner, making me feel special. The hotel grounds were pristine, with a stunning garden view that enhanced the overall experience. I greatly appreciated the attention to detail in the room's decor and the personalized recommendations for local attractions.

    The rug in my room posed a slipping hazard.
