Atmosphere
This bed and breakfast provides an immersive nature experience with a laid-back, communal vibe. The rooms feature screened windows that allow natural breezes and jungle sounds to flow through.

While some guests appreciate the authentic jungle experience, others note that the open-air design offers limited privacy.
