“Poor value - high price. What a disappointment!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2013

The cabins are old and moldy (see photo) and very uncomfortable - open air walls, thin mattress, mosquito net with holes. There is no electricity other than a pin-size LED light on the ceiling which was totally inadequate to find ones way to the toilet facilities. The food was low quality and the dining area is dark, dirty and dank.... More

“Overpriced and oversold - One night is enough”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 December 2012

“Interesting place, nice camp but worst guide ever!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2012

First of all: the camp itself is really nice and the ecological idea is consequently realized; food is good and the openair huts with the mosquito nets offer you the possibility to sleep in the middle of the jungle without the danger of getting wet or stung. And specially this mosquito net is a life saver if you visit the... More
