This is the worst hotel I have ever seen anywhere. My wife and I have owned and operated hotels for 40 years. Green Roof Inn has location which is great but our room had no working windows, no curtain over the balcony door, no flushing toilet, no plug in the basin, no hot water. When we arrived, no lights or power points worked. After some time, we found a woman who found a man and the electricity was made to work for a few minutes before failing again. No food unless we arranged for a cook to come in (a restaurant was claimed). Asking for drinks from the bar found nothing available. We suffered many mosquito bites as the only way to get fresh air was to leave balcony door open. After 1 night, bleeding and angry we left and were not asked to pay for the room.

We really enjoyed our 3-night stay here - it was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We had read a number of very mixed reviews but we’re so glad we went. We had two different rooms - the Upstairs Suite was much roomier and had better breeze and much better view than the double - definitely worth the extra money. We spent a lot of time on the little balcony of that room. There are also lots of other little nooks to chill out in. We swam from the tiny beach at the bottom of the yard - it was a little rugged but perfect for us. This is an eco hotel, though, so don’t expect perfect water pressure at the press of a button or air con (there isn’t). But for a relaxed place in a beautiful setting, it was perfect.

The Inn is not glitzy or elegant (well, the dining area is a bit) but it is relaxing and in a wonderful location. The rooms are basic but comfortable, and the grounds are pleasant. Breakfast is simple and delicious. Dinners are superb. The innkeeper is very accommodating and a wonderful chef besides. His emphasis on sustainability is genuine. If you share his values, you'll love this place.
