Here, where the jungle meets the sea and the map fades into mystery, a new kind of luxury reveals itself. Not in marble floors or manicured lawns, but in the raw, untouched beauty of a wild coastline, the whisper of the wind through the trees, and the deep hush of remoteness.

Our bamboo cabanas—thoughtfully crafted, gently placed—do not impose on the land. They belong to it. They lean into the sea breeze, inviting you to not merely stay, but to be. Wake to the rhythm of crashing waves, the call of exotic birds, the distant roar of howler monkeys. Feel the pulse of the earth in the sway of the trees, in the slow roll of a distant storm across the ocean.

This is where time loosens its grip. Where sunsets stretch long and the Wi-Fi is faint—because the real connection here is with yourself.

Welcome to the luxury of letting go.

Reservations +505.8458.1816 Connect with us through Whatsapp or email for a personalized consultation. We will discuss your dietary restrictions to curate a personalized menu. The modern traveler simply does not want to be accommodated, they want to be transformed. The best destinations are the places where travelers leave with something intangible- but rather a renewed sense of self and a deeper connection to nature.

All of our Cabanas have a king bed, a single bed and private bathroom. Scroll down to choose your cabana …

Bamboo Ocean View Duplex

Overlooking the pool, our Bamboo Ocean View Duplex offers two side-by-side lofted rooms that can be joined to create one expansive retreat—perfect for a group of four friends seeking connection. The space is designed to encourage community and shared moments, though it offers less privacy than our more secluded cabanas.

Whether you arrive with a group or as an individual guest, you’ll find a sense of kinship in these side-by-side rooms.

Luxury here is not measured by excess—but by depth of experience. We provide safety, comfort, and five-star service at an accessible price, all while preserving the wild spirit of the land.

  • Comfortable trail shoes for jungle walks and beach adventures

  • Your own toiletries (we provide body soap, linens, and pool towels—please note pool towels are not for beach use)
