Review of Twisted Palms Lodge and Restau...

Disappointing.

Disappointing.

On the plus side, good location - right on the beach. The area is quiet and laid-back - much less touristy than nearby Paje - but there's still a few places around to eat, lounge or have a drink

For the rest, we stayed for four nights, and the staff were not planning on changing our towels even once. When we asked for two fresh towels, it was apparently mission impossible. So was getting a cold bottle of water. Or cleaning the tables at breakfast. Basic stuff. Overall, the staff don't care at all, and the property is poorly maintained and doesn't get the care it needs. Staff would rather sit on their phones all day than fix the broken beach chairs, stock the fridge, or any of the million other fixes/improvements they could be making. From the other reviews, we get the impression that things might be better when the European owners are around, but we gather this is pretty rare these days. So I wouldn't take the chance and definitely avoid!

There's much better options nearby, at the same cost or cheaper.
