“Heaven”
First time I’ve ever given anywhere a 10! We stayed in Colibri Tower (the best one) and it was mind blowing. Having the opportunity to wake up in the middle of the rainforest listening to the birds, it’s a total paradise with stunning views and sunsets to die for. Also having yoga classes included in a lovely yoga shala was dreamy. Staff are really friendly and kind.

“Exotic zen experience.”
Very relaxing and quiet place with yoga, good vegetarian food and a zen atmosphere. We stayed in the brick hut, which was big and cozy… and glad we had a mosquito net around our bed :-) Bird watching with the guide David is recommended

“A magical treat in the jungle!”
A unique and special place. Up above the canopy looking across a high valley in the first of the towers. Big comfy bed with effective mosquito net and another big pull-out bed below. Good alfresco but private hot shower. Our companion appreciated the complementary yoga sessions and lots more was on offer. Amazing place to wake for the dawn chorus - my Merlin app counted 27 species within an hour. Bring binoculars if you have them and maybe take advantage of the local expertise. It was very pleasant simply to sit, watch the birds and enjoy the lush scenery, but it was also good to explore the site. We enjoyed swimming at the Secret Waterfall. Nice people run Selva Minca and they made us very welcome.

“A magical place to connect with nature.”
Selva Minca was the highlight of our trip, the setting is magical, the food was excellent and the yoga and activities were really special. The staff were so helpful and kind and we were very happy to stay an extra night in the Tree House, one of the most amazing places we have ever slept in! We were also pleasantly surprised that there weren’t too many mosquitos about :)

“Beautiful luxurious place immersed in nature and with amazing staff”
Amazing, I stayed in one of the beautiful towers and it was just breathtaking. The nature is so close, beautiful birds and plants and all in the lap of luxury (the hammock is amazing!!). The staff are incredibly kind and the food is amazing- really varied and plentiful options, and lots of healthy that is also really really tasty! A magical place!

“A truly magical place to stay for our honeymoon!”
We stayed for our honeymoon and had an unforgettable stay! Sleeping in a jungle bungalow with the sound of nature and the river was magical. The bungalow was so well equipped and we enjoyed brewing our own coffee and enjoying it in our own hammock whilst trying to spot all of the wildlife. Our highlight was spotting a toucan! We loved starting the day with morning yoga in the most beautiful setting and the food was incredible! We have never tasted so many delicous new fruits - highly recommend the pancakes! A really beautiful setting in the heart of the forest. The staff were all really helpful and friendly.

“A truly special place”
This is a truly special place: waking up in an open bungalow to the sounds of the forest was a wonderful experience. At the same time, the bed is comfortable, the mosquito nets work and there is hot water. So if you are a nature lover, but still like your comfort, this is ideal.
