Pronounced “Chin-tai,” the Indonesian word for love, Cintai by Corito’s Garden started as a private family rest house, where Corito, the matriarch, found comfort and serenity after she was diagnosed with a terminal disease. When she passed, Corito’s husband and four children lovingly developed the property into a paradise as a tribute.
