The accommodation itself is nice and the staff are friendly, but the rooms smell like urine and the hotel is noisy

The food was truly a 10 out of 10, and the hotel staff were very, very friendly—especially the volunteers (Emma). The location of the hotel itself is also really beautiful.

A great stay while meeting people from all around the world

A great location! An excellent staff. I fully recommend it for solo travelers because they organize many activities so you can meet new people. And they have the best pancakes in the world, I really love it!

A gem - stay to appreciate its value

The people who work there really make the difference! The environnement that is created there is truly unique and made our stay exceptional. Special thanks to the yoga teacher, Andrea, who was the kindest and delivered a class only for us, even if it wasn’t in her schedule. The suite was also very nice, clean and confortable. Lastly, the breakfast was amazing.

We really loved our stay at Bambuda. It's the perfect place to relax, surrounded by nature (we saw three sloths while we were just lounging by the pool!) The staff also really make this place special. They are so friendly, attentive and create a lovely atmosphere. They even remember your names. I hope they get paid well because they deserve it!!

Wonderful jungle hostel witha

Super clean, staff very friendly and helpful. Shoutout to Carol for the Jungle hike and Jesus. The family dinner and layout of the restaurant made it easy to meet people and socialize. The pool and showers were clean and the communal areas also were clean. No aircon but it wasnt too hot to sleep as there were two good fans on the bed.
