We had a very interesting stay at Pepem Holistic Experience. It is advertised as a luxurious, tranquil resort, but it is actually more of a “glamping” experience. We love the concept, staff and efforts made, but unfortunately it really did fall short of what was advertised to us. There are a lot, and I mean, a lot of bugs that make it into the room due to the netting and having no glass windows, and they often have a lot of issues with power-which means no lights, no way to charge devices, etc.
Outside of it not meeting our expectations as a luxury/boho stay, we were incredibly moved by the kindness, efficiency and capabilities of the staff and especially the chef that we encountered during our time at Pepem. Upon arrival we had a breezy check in and were offered food immediately. Every day that we spent there we were asked if there was anything needed to improve our stay, unfortunately I think a lot of our issues were outside of the staff’s control. All in all, the staff were the reason we left our vacation feeling overall satisfied and humble.
Adam is one of the most talented chefs we have ever encountered. He made us feel like life long friends, even family. He went out of his way every day to
Make sure that every guest not only had a full belly but had a smile on their face.
We are very grateful for the staff at this resort, we had an overall decent stay and would recommend for a 1 night stay or meal out.
