Fodor's Review:

Base yourself in these spacious but simple cabinas to explore the surrounding forests, mangroves, and Blue Flag beach. The six cabins have sitting rooms with wood furniture, screened-in porches, and pretty flower borders. Each sleeps three or four people. Linger for an hour or two atop a lofty bird observation platform in the hotel's rain-forest canopy, zip along the canopy tour, climb a 114-foot-high tree with ropes, or stay overnight at a shelter in the heart of the forest. Excellent local guides interpret the miles of trails, or you can follow the self-guided trail with the help of a handbook. There's a great gift shop here with lots of local crafts and nature books.
