The lodge has a fully equipped self catering kitchn where you can prepare your own food. It also has a café where you can purchase breakfast and dinner.

and letting the jungle do the talking overnight, have a no-power phase during the day (10.30am-5pm) when you are out and about exploring the rainforest and overnight while you are asleep (10.30pm-7am unless super hot when we leave it on).

While my stay was short, it was absolutely idyllic. 8 checked in late as I had come off a dive boat so had warned the hotel. Craig was still available and welcomed me to the property, providing all necessary details. The bedding was pristine and room with mozzy net was lovely. I was up early ready to jet on to hikes, etc and Craig took the time to provide recommendations and must-sees. His haste and knowledge were both very much appreciated. My only wish is that my trip did not have to be so abbreviated but c’est la vie.

The hosts were so welcoming and kind, they met us right when we arrive with huge smiles on their faces. They took the time to give us local recommendations and share more about their property. We were extremely impressed with each unit, from the photos we didn’t realize our group with 2 couples would get their own unit including an outdoor shower and bathroom, outdoor kitchen and soaking tub. We enjoyed the fresh fruit, local tea and muesli while overlooking the rainforest and looking at the birds. We had a phenomenal stay and only wish we could’ve stayed longer.

    Amazing spot in the middle of the rain forrest. As expected and duly stated by Steve & Sally, very basic and not for the comfort creatures out there. The kids were in heaven. The rainforest is wonderfully noisy, so just don't count on much sleep the first night. Loved our white, fresh linen too.

    We absolutely loved the experience of being in the rainforest, and waking to the animals waking up. The sound throughout the night was soothing and I had the best nights sleep in ages. We did the night walk which was fascinating sadly we had young children with us who were tired towards the end so were keen to get home. Probably wouldn't recommend for children under 11. Food was great, the room was huge.

    great location in the jungle. staff we excellent and were hard working to make sure you had everything you needed. the food was excellent and very quick. kids loved the communal area to play games. even though it was hot the rooms were a perfect temperature due to good airflow and it was a very comfortable night sleep.
