What recent reviews say

The Cedar Villa has a striking design and private forest setting that appeals to large family gatherings, but reviewers consistently report poor maintenance and cleanliness failures. While some guests mention comfortable stays, the majority describe dirty floors at check-in, algae-covered pools, broken taps and pipes, and proximity to pig farms that creates persistent odour. The access road is badly potholed, extra bedding charges apply despite high prices, and sheets go unchanged between guests. Management appears unresponsive to reported issues.
