Yeah, it’s requires a 40 min long, adventure-filled drive w/ a 4x4 and is literally in the middle of the jungle. Yeah, it’s open air and sometimes things walk (crawl, climb, hop & slither) right into the home. Yeah, it’s expensive. But let me tell you what…it’s so worth it. If you’re on the fence, do it. I promise, the experience you have will become legendary - stories will be told. The memories my family made at this home and locations nearby will never be forgotten. It’s an adventure just getting here. Once you’re here, you won’t want to leave. The beach at the end of the driveway is magnificent & virtually uninhabited - with EPIC surf. The number of animals you will see on and around the property is better than I could have imagined. It’s like Jurassic Park here. Everything (plants, bugs, trees, crabs) is just bigger and more beautiful. We live in tropical southern Florida and are familiar with exotic plants & animals. Nothing in Florida compares. This place is astonishing in every way. Simply explore the concrete walkways around the home at night with a flashlight and prepare to be amazed. The macaws, toucans, moths, & hummingbirds (in order of size) were always in eye/earshot. We saw 3 of the 4 monkey species directly above & around the house in our first 24 hours.
Our host, Sienne was wonderful, attentive & kind. If she’s available to cook for you during your stay, I cannot encourage you enough to employ here culinary magic. Nothing short of wonderful. Thank you!
