Cheryl and Jeff's bungalow is a great way to have your own private place in the jungle. They have been doing this for years, so they know how to treat out-of-towners. Their tastefully decorated cabin has everything you need for a comfortable stay. They even have tubes and a kayak that you can enjoy on the river. They have a full kitchen with all the amenities in case you like to do your own cooking. If that's not your style, head to Sandals down the road and hopefully you will be treated to a sweet serenade by the lovely lady who owns the place.
Getting to Cristo Rey is fun and relatively easy. Cheryl and Jeff offer transportation options, but if you're a little more adventurous the buses from San Ignacio are frequent and cheap. The only criticism of the Banana Bungalow would be that the wifi went down the morning we were trying to book the next leg of our trip, which shouldn't matter to those trying to disconnect, but it was a minor inconvenience during an otherwise perfect stay!
