I stayed at this property about 18 months ago, and am finally compelled to write a review. After looking at the web page, and reading the descriptions, I thought that I was going to a tropical paradise. This couldn't be further from the truth. It was very disappointing. The rooms were very, very plain and basic (that's being flattering). Although the room was clean, the property did not reflect the image that is portrayed on its web page. There are birds...and that's about it....the river is non existant, the below average restaurant is very disappointing. You quite honestly sit there and think to yourself, "where is the hidden camera, this has to be some kind of cruel joke..."

The owner "Winston" is portrayed in some travel guides as being this wonderful host. I met him, and certainly did not share these feelings. I felt taken advantage of to think I was paying $60.00 to stay at this property.

Winston charges an outrages fee for airport transfers (although there is no other option)....if you book a swamp tour to see the scarlett ibis, you are often told you will be sharing the expense of the van ride with others, only to be told once you are in the van, that the other group has cancelled.

We really felt that we did not get good value from this hotel...
If you choose to book it that's up to you...but you will not being staying at the tropical paradise you were promised!

“Enjoyed Carnetta's Inn”

5/8 found this review helpful

Spent a wonderful 5 days at Carnetta's Inn. Loved the ambience - the property is surrounded by trees, plants and flowers complete with a river running through. The staff were friendly and it was truly a home away from home.
