“Beautiful getaway into the jungle”
Wow, this was a beautiful experience. We stayed two nights in this amazing little paradise and had such a relaxing stay. The waterfalls are beautiful, the food was so fresh and felt truly authentic, the gardens are amazing (if you’re into permaculture and circular systems this is a really interesting place to visit - make sure to do the garden tour and taste all the fruit and herbs!). The scenery is incredible, and it was so nice to be in a place we could drink the water and feel like nature was being taken care of well. I loved sleeping in traditional style open air bungalows, hearing nature was lovely. The air was really clean and the temperature was sometimes cool, I even put on a long sleeve top! John gave us great advice on where to stay next, too - which was so helpful.
The only thing I would recommend is upgrading the sheets - some cotton sheets would be lovely and cool for sleeping, though I understand they may be harder to dry and maybe this is why they haven’t.
