🔘 We try to keep the Resort eco-friendly with low noise levels. No quad bikes are allowed. Music is not allowed & low noise levels must be maintained after 10:00pm.
🔘 We are located in the bush and share our environment with the local creatures, please keep your doors/tents zipped closed and don’t leave food out for the monkeys.

💡Interesting Note:
The word Gala-Gala means Gecko in the local dialect. The bush surroundings we enjoy are teeming with many Geckos and lizards of all shapes and sizes so this is the inspiration for our name.
