This stay is exceptional for solo female travelers, and recommended for anyone. After a stressful day of travel alone, I felt welcomed upon arrival and safe in the environment. The host is an honest and friendly man who goes out of his way to meet your needs. From a fulfilling included breakfast to travel help, you will be fully taken care of here. The rooms are romantic, quaint bungalows in the jungle, within convenient distance to the main sightseeing areas. Even if you choose to have a break from sightseeing, there is a rock behind the hotel that you can explore and watch the sunrise from. The host and his family live behind the hotel rooms, his dogs walk the property, and monkeys play in the trees-- all of this gives a tropical and homey feel. I didn't want to leave on my last day!
