Reviews:
‘The view from the rooms is just amazing and goes for as far as the eye can see. You are surrounded by the noises of nature itself and the view of the ocean is just breath taking. The rooms are very comfortable but do not expect too much, you are of course in the last remaining lowland rainforest.’

‘The bungalows are very private with modern amenities and are very comfortable. Being woken up by monkeys in the trees above in the morning is such a dream. The staff at the resort are very friendly and ready to plan your days tour for you. A great hotel in a natural location.’

‘The food at the resort is very fresh and tastes of what food should taste like. Everything about the hotel and its surroundings are just so natural and the hotel is at one with nature.’
