“Clean boutique hotel in the middle of the jungle”
Great little oasis in the jungle. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. Had wonderful dinner out on the lawn, was worried about bugs, but was good, loved hearing the sounds of the jungle around us.

“Beautiful and calm”
The location is off the busy roads and you are almost in the middle of the jungle. Beautiful place with a great garden and pool. Service was excellent and super friendly staff. You can go here with small kids. You need a driver or own car though. But since they offer bfast, lunch&dinner you can just stay there. Really good- I totally recommend this place.
