Rooms
Four kinds, named after what they look at
Selva
Eleven of the twenty-two rooms face the forest, which at this distance means a wall of green about twenty metres from the door and a dawn chorus that starts before you want it to.
Tall doors open onto a private strip of terrace, and there is a fan and shutters that close firmly, because between November and March they have to.
Terraza
Pool side, ground floor, with the bathroom that gets photographed more than the bedroom does: a slatted screen, a long tub, and a window onto a planted light well.
These are the closest rooms to the water and the pavilion, and the ones families with small children ask for.
Río
Four rooms on the upper floor with a view over the canopy towards the river, which you can see for about six weeks a year when the water is high and the leaves are thin.
These are the largest rooms, and the only ones with a bath as well as a shower.
Patio
Six rooms around the service courtyard, which sounds worse than it is: the courtyard has a mango tree in it and the kitchen door is on the far side.
They are the coolest rooms in the building in February, so the staff suggest them to anyone who says they sleep badly in heat.
The same everywhere
- Every room has a ceiling fan and air conditioning, and from December to February you'll want both.
- Shutters that close firmly, because the insects are numerous and the rain comes in sideways.
- The rooms have no television. There is one in the sitting room off reception.
- Two ground-floor rooms have level access from the terrace and a step-free bathroom.
