A fully equipped kitchenette with a stove, fridge, cookware, and utensils makes it easy to prepare your own meals. The large veranda, complete with hammock and seating, is perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation while enjoying the sights and sounds of the jungle.
The cottage is designed with comfort and simplicity in mind—ideal for couples, solo travelers, or anyone seeking peace, nature, and a touch of adventure.
