The most beautiful pool and surroundings Staff was helpful. Amazing views and quiet rooms! Pool bar and food overall were not up to a 5 star hotel, but beautiful surroundings

The pool and views around the hotel were amazing and the bed was very comfy. However the food in the restaurant was bad, no amenities in the rooms, and staff not very helpful in arranging transport to get to town.

We stayed at Simpson’s one week, and what a week. Staff very very kind and service minded. Facilities excellent in the middle of an area with amazing nature and great wildlife. Food excellent. We had the pleasure to make local food with one of the chefs and travel to knuckles mountains, explore the tea plantage and may other exiting adventures. We will be back again as soon as possible:-)
