This jungle retreat felt a lot like camping and offered a beautiful view with ducks, cats, roosters, a garden, and lots of fruit! You can listen to the rain on the tin roof as you fall asleep. It can get very noisy at night so bring earplugs if you prefer a quiet night. The price $55 a night was well worth it, but the cleaning fee was more than what we expected.
The humidity can be very high and often leave the bed sheets damp. The fruit stand didn’t offer much of a selection, but we did stop at a near by market to get some local fruit.
Also, the outside shower can be piping hot or ice cold, but once we talked to Janelle, she was able to fix it fast and get us a warm shower!
Overall, our stay was relative to camping with communal bathrooms and an outdoor shower.
A must bring: bug spray, towels (if you decide to go to the beach), flashlights, food/snacks, sandals, umbrellas, rain jackets, and great friends!
