If you’re looking to check-out of the city life and spend time in the serenity of the tropical forest then this is the perfect place. Jean and Lorelei are the perfect hosts, such lovely people! They provided us with fresh fruit which was lovely, and their vegan protein shakes should be an Instagram sensation! Stay here! It will change your life, if you choose it to.
