Staying at the resort was an incredible experience, as it's nestled deep in the jungle, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The jungle trails were challenging but rewarding, and my guide was exceptionally knowledgeable about the local ecosystem. While the cabins were basic, they fit into the natural surroundings beautifully. However, the lack of planned activities on some days and the need for better communication about the treks could be improved.
The cabins we stayed in were quite basic but charming, blending well with the surroundings. They were comfortable enough for our needs.
Our guide was fantastic, very caring and attentive throughout our stay. The staff were always eager to assist, especially with meal requests.
The resort is perfectly located deep in the jungle, providing numerous opportunities to spot wildlife right outside our cabin.
The dining experience was generally good, with hearty meals offered. I particularly enjoyed that they accommodated our request for sandwiches.
Facilities were limited, but they provided gumboots for the jungle walks, which was a nice touch. More activities or options would have been appreciated.

My stay at Tabin Wildlife Resort was an unforgettable experience in the heart of the rainforest. The personal touches from our guide Rafel made it truly special, and the variety of wildlife we encountered was incredible. The dining options surpassed my expectations and the accommodations were quite comfortable. However, the steep climb to our lodge was quite exhausting, and some scheduled activities were canceled due to rain.
Our hill lodge was clean and comfortable, although the 170 stairs were a bit tiring after meals and activities.
Rafel was an exceptional guide, friendly and knowledgeable, but there were gaps in service during transitions between activities.
The resort is beautifully situated in the rainforest, offering fantastic wildlife viewing opportunities.
The food was surprisingly good with plenty of options including local dishes, and I especially enjoyed spaghetti night.
The facilities were decent, with our lodge being comfortable and clean, though a bit dated.

I had an absolutely fantastic time at this jungle resort! The lodge offered a unique experience with clean accommodations and friendly guides. The food was simple but good, with options for vegetarians. However, the dining choices became a bit repetitive, and the journey to the lodge can be quite bumpy. Overall, it was an unforgettable adventure immersed in nature!
The lodge accommodations were basic but very clean. We appreciated the air conditioning as well.
Our guide was extraordinary and really made our trip special, offering lots of interesting information.
Deep in the jungle, the lodge provided great opportunities to see wildlife during our activities.
The food was hot, tasty, and plentiful, though it did become a bit repetitive after a few days.
Basic facilities but very clean, and the free coffee and tea throughout the day was a nice touch.

I had an amazing adventure at this resort, surrounded by stunning nature and fantastic wildlife experiences. The location is deep in the jungle, making it a perfect spot for those who love to explore. However, the accommodation could use some improvements, particularly regarding cleanliness, as I had an unsettling experience with rodent issues in my room. Overall, the guides were excellent, and the activities were truly memorable.
The room had a significant rodent problem, which negatively impacted my experience. It was distressing to find rat droppings on the bed, and despite staff efforts, the issue remained.
The guides were phenomenal and really made the experience enjoyable, but the overall responsiveness of the staff regarding the room issue was lacking.
The resort is beautifully situated deep in the jungle, providing ample opportunities to see wildlife during activities, which I truly appreciated.
The food was good and tasty, which added to the overall experience, although dining service could be more attentive.
The facilities were basic but adequate for the nature-focused experience we were after, though there is room for more upkeep.
