    Everything! It was like we were in the jungle on our own, the houses are very well set out so you really feel like no one else is around. Walking through the jungle to the beach was also a great experience and our house seemed to come with a dog...

    We loved the location and the beach. The wildlife around the house is amazing but you need to like all the insects that will also find a way into the house. If you don't mind that it is a dream house.
