Staying at Janelle's cottage was a beautiful and refreshing experience. You get to truly experience living out in the jungle while still retaining comforts like hot water and electricity. The outdoor shower was so much fun to use! It's not for everyone (if you're bothered by insects and critters and inevitable effects of the humid climate), but if you genuinely enjoy the outdoors then this is your place!
We had to move our reservations around a little bit at last minute which was a little hectic but Janelle was very flexible and accommodating which we're grateful for. We also opted for some home cooked meals by Janelle which ended up being some of the highlights of our entire trip! I highly recommend this if schedule allows, Janelle is an amazing chef but more so has a beautiful vibrant personality, full of joy and life and we really cherished getting to know her a little bit. It made the whole experience special and we hope to return in the future. Psyche the cat was also a friendly and special host that we enjoyed getting to know.
