CUSTOM PACKAGES are also available. They are generally comprised of a 2, 3 or 4 night ‘Adventure Package’ with a couple of nights ‘Accommodations & Meals’ added on the end.

MUST WE BOOK A PACKAGE – No, you can book a room & add whatever you need at the lodge.

STAFF GRATUITIES – We encourage tipping but do NOT believe in mandatory service charges – tipping should be totally up to you. Given outstanding Service, we suggest putting US$20-30 per adult guest night and US$10-15 per child guest night into the tip box at Reception. Tips are 100% managed by our staff & shared by all except our guides who are generally tipped directly.

ALL CABANAS ARE AIR-CONDITIONED BUT YOU DECIDE IF YOU NEED IT – Having found that many of our guests prefer open windows to enjoy the night-time Noises of The Jungle & the natural cooling of a thatch roofed cabana, we have structured our generators, electrical system and rates to provide air-conditioning as an option that can be added at the lodge or when booking your adventure. Air-conditioning adds US$31 plus government tax per cabana-night.
Not available in Researcher Cabanas.

HOW MANY NIGHTS SHOULD WE BOOK – 3 To 4 Nights Is The Average stay for couples and families on an Adventure-Package. Some folk want to relax after their Adventure-Package & will add a couple of nights Accommodation-Only-&-Meals on the end. Let us know how you imagine your experience and we will help you put it together.
