The lush jungle hillside of Bo Resort conceals a variety of inviting and creatively decorated wooden bungalows. Rooms are slightly bohemian, with beaded curtains in the doorways, brightly painted doors, and blue and yellow window frames. They're light and roomy, with spacious decks, comfy beds, and spotless bathrooms. There's an airy beachfront restaurant, though one guest complained that the menu isn't particularly exciting -- it looked ok to us, but considering that you're a fair hike to any other restaurants, it could have been better. Our only real complaint is that staff seemed a little less than pleased to help us, and they weren't particularly eager to give us any information.

Where possible the researcher will inspect at least a couple of rooms.

Bo Resort reviews

Read 2 opinions from Travelfish readers

Food was great - 5th January, 2008
We stayed over Xmas break so it was busy with many families -- as such it wasn't as quiet and serene as we expected -- however the food and service was spectacular and likely it would have been exactly what we had been looking for at other times of the year.

Calm and Relaxing - 20th October, 2006
We stayed a week (and left the resort only once), and could have easily stayed a month! We came to get away from, the crowds and found a slice of paradise complete with hillside gardens down to the beach. Great food, cozy bungalows and is worth the bumpy ride out from town.
