    Cosy settled in the rainforest with 20 meters to next cabin. Only 7 cabins, total, we had 2x since traveled with our teenage kids. This made us feel special to the wonderful staff we met, and what a kitchen. Wooho - 10 points on the dinner!

    This was a Robinson Crusoe meets the 21st century style in the rainforest. The accommodation, food, setting and the staff were all excellent.

    We had a wonderful stay. Each lodge is a private house surrounded by the forest, offering a great connection to nature. The staff was outstanding, and the restaurant was excellent with exceptional service. Highly recommended for nature lovers!
