At first we were a little nervous about staying in the middle of the jungle but it was great. There are howler monkeys in the nearby forest and every night your path is lit by firefly's. Mike and his employees were extremely helpful with providing food, local tips and organising tours. The location is a long way from San Ignacio but closer to most of the sights that you would go to if you were staying there. The extended cave tour was a once in a lifetime experience. I would recommend having a 4wd if you're going to drive yourself however, we left our car at the top of the hill and Mike was happy to give us a lift.
