"Basically stumbled on these beautifully built, spotlessly clean and very comfortable cabanas. Nice private forest trails for wildlife with gardens and bird watching platforms on the property. It's clear they are making constant improvements (particularly focused on birding groups) and it will only get better with time. Toni and Eladio are fabulous, interesting, knowledgeable and accommodating hosts passionate about the nature and conservation of the region! The meals offered are fresh, delicious...

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will appreciate the lodges situated slightly outside the town, but still with good road access.
