Die Unterkunft war wunderschön gelegen an einem Fluss. Die Pfahlhäuser sind luxuriös ausgestattet und passen wunderbar in den gepflegten Garten inmitten des Dschungels. Im nahegelegenen Wasserfall konnte man baden. Es war alles traumhaft schön. Wir haben eine Bootstour auf dem Meer unternommen und Wale und Delfine gesehen- sehr zu empfehlen. Die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Es gab ein sehr liebevoll zubereitetes und leckeres Frühstück.

10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2023
The Lodge is very easy reachable from the coastal road (short dirt road but no issue at all) and the tents are very quiet, nice, clean, spacious and equipped with lights and electricity. We were warmly welcomed by Cees and got valuable information from him. His breakfast is delicious and we had a fantastic dinner in a restaurant which is just 2 minutes by walk away. We also enjoyed very much the early-morning swim at the waterfall which is just some 100 meters down the road.
