I could NOT recommend this stay more, it was absolutely amazing. The rooms are like private bungalows that have hammocks, a hottub, and a small fridge. The bar on sight is also a fantastic place to spend some time in the afternoon. It’s extremely close to the city center, the waterfall, and other activities. I wish I could have stayed longer!! I’d return in a heartbeat.

We had an excellent stay, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Our large cabin was on the edge of the Rainforest and would choose it again. The small bar had games to play and the bartender made amazing drinks - we made this a part of our day. On site we saw a variety of birds, including a toucan. 100% recommend this property, especially for visitors with their own rental vehicle.

I accidentally stumbled into this location and boy was I pleasantly surprised! The property was beautifully maintained. Each lodge offers some privacy from others by using plant life. The tub was ridiculously large, fitting 4 people. it was quiet, peaceful, and a beautiful example of local hospitality. The staff was friendly and offered local tours (which we used). They are located very close to local sites and are within walking distance to a small market, shops, & restaurants.
