    This is a beautifully landscaped property. Birds abound, lots of flowers, the food was good (a little expensive) , the bed was comfortable and the water was hot. We really liked it.

    Ara Ambigua has a wonderful trail system through the jungle that is a birder’s paradise. I spent hours wandering the property getting close views of keel billed toucans, gulllemots, oropendolas, chacalacas, black vultures, roadside hawks clay...
