Of the 28 pretty bungalows spread around the main complex, eight are doubles, seven sleep three, three have twin-bed accommodation and 10 can sleep families of four. All are clean and comfortable, with humidifiers (usually on when you arrive) to clear the rainforest damp. The beds are large, the mosquito nets are ample, the en-suite bathroom has a heater for drying towels and the small veranda outside is great for early-morning coffee. The decor is slightly dated, but perfectly adequate.
