Do not book during rainy season- June through October. An enormous river washed out the road and cars were stuck on both sides. We couldn't get there Tried two days in a row. Lost entire stay and 2 days of vacation. We had to spend quite a bit of extra money finding a place to stay. The owner was very unreasonable. Would not reimburse us our money, not even a portion. This was not just bad weather, the road was covered by a moving river with a several foot drop. Not safe to travel across.

We loved staying here for the experience and the wildlife. We has 2 kinds of monkeys, coatis and macaws all come right to the porch of the main building and we even had an anteater drop by our room! It is about 1 hour down a dirt road from the nearest town so prepare for that! The meals were expensive even for kids & were served family style so you paid per person instead of per plate. We ate snacks during the day we brought with us and dinner at someone's home down the street instead for less than half the price.

This place should definitely be on the hit list! Squirrel and capuchin monkey right by our room! Macaw's joined us for afternoon drinks right from the jungle.
