The Summit Rainforest Retreat offers a mixed experience when it comes to the accommodation options. Guests frequently praised the cleanliness and welcoming nature of the rooms, highlighting that some rooms are beautifully maintained and provide peace and quiet. Comfort levels are noted positively, with some guests finding the beds comfortable and the facilities good. However, there are several aspects that might not suit everyone’s taste. Some rooms, such as 'The Pantry' and 'The Fern', are described as small and lacking essential furniture like chairs or benches, making them less convenient to use, particularly for older guests. In general, guests report that some rooms might feel a bit sparse and dark, requiring lights on throughout the day due to limited natural light. While spacious and tidy rooms are also mentioned, challenges arise with some shared amenities and storage solutions, such as missing wardrobes and having the ensuite bathroom located outside the room. Despite these drawbacks, the natural surroundings and overall cleanliness seem to ensure a comfortable stay.
The Summit Rainforest Retreat boasts a picturesque setting that captivates its visitors, though the beds have received mixed reviews. Some guests found comfort in their accommodations, appreciating certain beds that made their stay pleasurable. However, others experienced beds that were notably hard or uncomfortable, likened to resting on rocky surfaces. The choice of mattress firmness varied across rooms, and while some visitors had restful nights, others were left wishing for more plush or accommodating sleeping arrangements. The king room beds presented a unique solution with two single mattresses combined into one, delivering a variable comfort level that did not fully satisfy all the visitors. Overall, the retreat offers a blend of bed experiences that could appeal to some, but might not meet the expectations of others seeking more relaxation and comfort.
