Overlooking the jungle with so many awesome animals in the trees like toucans and monkeys. The rooms are in... More

This place is an amazing hostel. The environment was beautiful, charming.... The owners of the hostel are very kind and the dinners they prepare there are simply excelent. You sleep in the middle of the jungle and what you will find in this is place is paradise. For sure, I will come back some day to this place.

This is really an amazing hostel. You get the ultimate junglefeeling with all the naturesounds around you and you still have a nice bed and a great kitchen. The vibe is very good and it's easy to meet new people in the nice open kitchen and hangout place. There's a trail in the 'garden' leading to a small creek and... More

This must havebeen the most relaxing spot in the 4 months we are travelling. The guys who own and manage it respondee to all my questions by email which made getting there a piece of cake. The rooms are great since you sleep under a mosquito net in the jungle. Of course there are bugs but that is completely normal.... More

This place is surrounded by great nature! I highly recommend... More

Brian and Kyle are great hosts, making sure you're good all the time, and so the volunteers as well. Yes, it's outside town but there... More

Brian and Kyle figured out how to get the other travelers in on a plane, and they told me many nearby places to explore while I waited. The... More
