Nice pool, staff friendly and also convenient and pro active. I really enjoy my room, was big, clean and with a nice balcony with a view on the jungle. Parking is easy and close to everything. Good breakfast too. Only little details, it has no yoga or meditation class as they say on the website. It’s sad, because the yoga studio is really beautiful.

The rooms were cleaned regularly and spotless and the staff friendly, but what really stood out was the abundant nature. I saw more wildlife here than on all of the nature tours I went on put together. I saw 3 different types of monkey, iguanas and lots of birds including the striking fiery-billed toucan.
