This place rocks! Outdoor camp style kitchen, plenty of space and room for a whole squad. If you are scared of bugs keep some repellent with you but otherwise the ideal accom for a team
Perfect spot for a big group. Great, comfortable cabins nestled amongst the rainforest like gardens.
We were a large group of 7 familes / 30 people and the accommodation was excellent for our group with a central area for meals etc and pool for the kids. Thanks Sandy for a great stay and we will most likely be back again.
