Great jungle location about 15mins walk from minca, with views of the jungle from net Hammocks which is a nice touch. There is a basic kitchen, but also has a restaurant with meals like pizzas, tacos and nachos for 30,000 pesos. Highly recommend the chocolate making class which is onsite. Could use some fans or some water to go in as it gets really hot during the day
