Our take

A 9.6 on 135 ratings at five stars is an excellent result for a rainforest eco-lodge, and a spa, a pool, formal dining and room service explain much of it. The airport shuttle and free parking help with a remote location. The tranquil setting means guests wanting nightlife will find it too quiet. I would book it for comfort inside the forest.

  • ✓Take advantage of the airport shuttle for a smooth arrival and departure experience.
  • ✓Explore the surrounding rainforest trails to fully appreciate the lodge's natural setting.
  • ✓Enjoy a treatment at the spa to unwind after a day of activities in the jungle.
  • ✓Savor the formal dining experience; it's a highlight of the lodge's offerings.
