We are located at Km 7, Careterra a Yaruca, 25 minutes from downtown La Ceiba or 40 minutes from the Utila and Roatan Ferry terminal so you can also take one of our recommended taxis who charge 400 lempiras or if you can get to the Terminal de Buses Principa?, San Jose before their departures, you can catch the local bus and get dropped off right in front of Jungle River Lodge for 25 Lempiras. To get to the ferry terminal, the 7 am (ish)
Local bus passes right in front of our gate. If they have room, they will stop. You still have take a taxi from La Cieba to the ferry terminal but that is only about 50 L per person from there. If the bus is full, alot of people hitch hike rides or it is still early enough to call a taxi.

We have lockers in the dorms and provide guests with safe storage of small items. Our dorms have bathrooms with cold showers, Towels provided upon request with deposit. The Private rooms have hot or cold water showers. We provide a laundry service and housekeeping upon request. We have a restaurant with delicious breakfasts, lunches, appys and tasty meals. We provide Honduran dishes, vegan and vegetarian dishes and some international favs. We have a bar serving icy cold beers, delicious cocktails, guititi and more. We have natural juices and smoothies and Topollillos. We do not have a communal kitchen nor storage for food so we request guest do not bring food or drinks, especially since having these in rooms attacts jungle critters and crazy ants.

Our guests meet each other and become family, hang out, play games, chill, listen to music, use the firepit (after collecting their own wood) and hike and raft and everything else. We provide decent WiFi in our common area and have a book exchange. We have have stunning view of the sunset and night sky and two natural swimming pools which are perched on the cliff. Jumgle River is located at the best cliff jumping and swimming spots on the river and is sandwiched between Pico Bonito National Park and Nombre de Dios National Park so seeing wild toucans, kingfishers, igrets, parrots, auropendulum and other birds is pretty normal. Our dog Perosky #3 is very cute and loves attention an our resident scarlet macaw, Guara goes from being a noble to being an outright dictator.
