“So nice with all the animals, it’s quiet and only a short tuktuk drive from the busy town. The staff were very friendly, hammocks, a good kitchen and spacious economical room. If you’re a nature- and animal lover, perfect spot. Thank you!”

“It was in a very quiet place to stay. The floor of the hammock room was clean, I know this because it is required to take off your shoes to enter it. My feet remained clean.”

“Perfect place to relax and hang out on the outside of town (45 minute walk or 10 minute mototaxi) A shop with most things you will need is just a 5 minute walk away. There was always interesting and friendly people to meet for the 4 days I was there.”

Our property is everybody's home, here we had hosted people from all around the globe, all over the house you'll find traces they left behind. We're a tiny guest house, only two bedrooms which are more than enough for everyone to enjoy being in the jungle. Local insight and contact with native communities at walking distance. There's a kitchen for guest full with local fruits and coffee.
I'm a teacher at a language school, you'll hear me talking about life thought language all the time, I'm very interested in native communities and I own another property in the jungle next to them.
In our neighbourhood you may be the only white creature walking around, this makes travellers special and of course you might end sitting in a table full of beers local will pay for you!. We're off the beaten track, we're the farthest 'hostal type' in town, that's something we're very proud of because downtown is becoming too noisy and too many tourists around, that's something we have our idea about.
