This is a really beautiful place to spend a few nights. Setting is in a rainforest with waterfall and lovely gardens. It is a unique experience that is hard to find now. Sacha is a wonderful host.

Beautiful gardens and the cottage was amazing. We were there for a friends wedding and the staff went above and beyond! Only advice would be to request a fan in the cottage, it was very warm well into the evening and as the cottages are surrounded by the garden and trees there are too many mossies to be comfortable leaving windows open

Rauhaisaa oleskelua ankkojen/sorsien kanssa
Meillä oli mökki yhdeksi yöksi. Mökki oli iso ja siellä oli sähköt ja juokseva vesi. Aamupalatarvikkeet oli tuotu valmiiksi keittiöön. Oikein siistit tilat lukuunottamatta oleskelutilan kokolattiamattoa. Huomionarvoista että mökissä ei ole nettiä eikä telkkaria ja lähistöllä ei ole illallista tai kauppoja. Mökistä on mahtavat näkymät läheiseen metsään ja mäelle. Hintaan kuului myös Watergardenin sisäänpääsy (normaalisti taisi olla noin 15 dollaria), jossa etenkin lummeallas on upea. Ulkosalla viihtyvät myös useat sorsat/ankat joissa riittää ihmeteltävää.
