Incredible location, beautiful accommodation, extremely warm and welcoming hosts. Lots of do for fun

The location is absolutely beautiful. The room itself is very cozy and the view is starting to wake up to. The biggest highlight however are the host and the people who really make your stay so welcoming. We're so grateful to them for giving us such a great time there. the jacuzzi is an absolute must and is so relaxing that we did it on both nights furthermore if you like your wine they make their own locally and it's as good as any I've tried in Georgia which is some of the best I've tried in the world would gladly stay here again and give me the opportunity.

A great weekend getaway

It’s located inside the forest, among the trees, which IMO makes it unique. There are a few hiking roots nearby, but otherwise you can just stay next to your tiny home and enjoy the silence. Nice bedding too

A truly magical, peaceful escape with exceptional hospitality and unforgettable atmosphere.

Everything about this place feels truly special. The atmosphere is absolutely magical, quiet, peaceful, and surrounded by stunning natural beauty. It honestly feels like stepping into another world. The hosts were incredible, so warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. They made everything feel easy and comfortable. The service was perfect, everything was well organized, and the overall experience felt very high quality. The food was also amazing, fresh, delicious, and clearly made with care. I felt completely relaxed and taken care of during my stay.

Peaceful nature, great food and amazing hosts!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The cabins were clean and comfortable, all of them spread out amongst the forest and fully surrounded by nature. The dinners and breakfast were great, and their wine was delicious! Each cabin has its own terrace to enjoy the sun, and also a small patio beneath the cabin which can be enjoyed even in the rain. The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful in suggesting nearby hikes (and they speak very good English). The dogs and cat there are very friendly too :) We did the “aromatherapy experience” as a birthday activity and it was so relaxing - a private wood-fired hot tub with flowers and candles, and a camp fire. The town is only a short drive and has supermarkets, petrol stations, restaurants and cafes. Also plenty of parking next to the property and the roads are in good condition (we had a small 2WD car). Being in the forest means it’s inevitable that there are some ants, but we found that a little bit of mosquito repellent kept them outside the cabin so they weren’t a problem :) There’s no wifi but we had good signal with our local SIMs (or you can just enjoy being in nature!) Highly recommend for a special occasion!

Very quiet, and relaxing in a beautiful forest setting.

The location was great. Felt right in the middle of the forest. The cabin was really nice and cozy and felt homely. The owner was very nice and helpful! Breakfast was included and there was so much food and it was very nice. We were so full.

Special place to unwind and reconnect with nature – a fantastic base for hiking in the national par

Beautiful wooden houses on stilts set in a small grove right by the national park. Reopened after winter, the place feels almost magical, with narrow paths and a little stream leading to each house. The cabin was clean, cosy and well equipped, with heating, warm bedding and everything we needed – much appreciated in the cold, rainy weather. In the mornings, the birdsong in the fresh green of spring was wonderfully calming. Breakfast on the veranda was excellent: local, varied and prepared with great care, with stunning views over the park. After our hikes, the wood-heated outdoor bath was pure bliss. In the evenings, we enjoyed delicious Georgian food and excellent homemade red wine. We can wholeheartedly recommend this special place.

Enchanting place in the forest

Absolutely incredible place! We and our friends loved every moment we spent there. The host was super nice and attentive, explained and showed us everything. Each casita has its own stone hot bath, and it was the perfect way to relax after our big hike to the waterfall. They also made us dinner with fresh local produce — healthy and so delicious. The whole place is quiet, clean, green, and beautiful. We loved it so, so much!

Amazing place. Highly recommended

What a perfect place! Heartfelt hospitality, amazing location - you can walk right out of the room to the river and forests of the Lagodakhi reserve. Excellent, natural and special food, a jacuzzi heated by a fire - wow what a treat. Absolutely a place to come back to. And the hosts and staff - we miss you already
