This place is a hidden gem! Located in a jungle where you least expect it (close to amenities, just a 7-minute walk from the supermarket and the beach), you can spot so many animals (monkeys, butterflies, birds, frogs, ...) right from your open kitchen, bedroom, or rooftop. It's a peaceful spot, perfect for relaxing and disconnecting. The villas are brand new and offer everything you need (including a well-equipped kitchen). The host is wonderful and goes above and beyond to make your stay comfortable and unforgettable. I really enjoyed my stay!

A dream! Modern, new houses “in the middle” of the forest. The bedroom has a huge window with mosquito screens and a super comfortable bed & fan under the ceiling.
Especially in the morning, you can see tons of different animals, from spiders, frogs and geeks to green iguanas, monkeys and sloths! Some of the animals you first hear and then see, so it's worth being attentive!
