Casa Zenon: magic retreat with jungle view.
Description
Casa Zénon is located in Dos Brazos, a village of gold prospectors, in the middle of the jungle in close proximity to Corcovado. High up and very open to the outside, surrounded by lush vegetation, it offers stunning views of the rainforest. Its exceptional location allows you to practice many guided or unguided activities (the new "El Tigre" trail of Corcovado is a 5-minute walk away). The space Perfect for a couple, family, or friends, Casa Zénon can accommodate up to six people in a large bedroom with a queen size double bed and two bunk beds. The house has a small open living room with a view of the rainforest. AMENITIES - One double bed (Queen size) - Two bunk beds - Mosquito nets, towels and bedding included - Private toilets - Bathroom with warm shower - A fridge with a small kitchen area with the essentials for making simple dishes. - Armchairs - Excellent spring water (from the property) - Baby crib (0-3 years) available on request AMAZONITA ECOLODGE Amazonita (literally "little Amazon") is a small family Ecolodge composed of a set of three lovely houses (from 2 to 6 people) and a restaurant spread over 10 hectares of tropical forest crossed by two streams. They are built of "fallen" wood and bamboo from the property. Located high on a hill and very open to the outside, they offer stunning views of the rainforest and direct contact with nature. You won't need a TV here, the landscape will be your flat screen when you admire the clouds flirting with the canopy in the early morning and the macaws and toucans playing with the dizzying treetops. Like Robinson on his island, you will feel like you are living the first morning of the world every day... At the entrance of the property is the charming lodge restaurant "La Cuchara Tica" located in a former gold miner's house. Experience the great adventure in the heart of the jungle safely and in a comfortable setting. ACTIVITIES Amazonita Ecolodge is located in the middle of the jungle, in the "Golfo Dulce Forest Reserve", between the two arms of the Tigre and 200 meters from an unknown entrance to Corcovado National Park. This is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of nature or to practice many activities, guided or not, on site or in the immediate vicinity. The terraces of the houses allow you to observe the flora and fauna of the rainforest from the ground to the canopy. The lodge is located just 5 minutes from the new Corcovado National Park trail and 100 meters from the beautiful Finca Bolita trails with waterfalls, natural pools and breathtaking views of the Golfo Dulce. There are many trails in the jungle, waterfalls including the famous "El Salto", natural showers... You can also meet real gold prospectors and watch birds. Dos Brazos is a world-renowned birdwatching spot... Finally, Dos Brazos is only 20 minutes from Puerto Jimenez and close to the beaches of Golfo Dulce including the famous surfer beaches of Cabo Matapalo. SERVICES AT YOUR DISPOSAL - Catering service. We offer typical cuisine and international wines in a cosmopolitan, friendly and family atmosphere. By reservation only (no later than the day before for breakfast and in the morning for dinner). Breakfast: $8/Dinner: $15 (excluding drinks) - Organization of your activities. We offer a selection of guided or non-guided activities. Kerley, our official guide, is at your disposal to introduce you to and organize all possible activities. - In case of long stays, the price includes a cleaning of your accommodation as well as a change of sheets and towels every three days. - Laundry service. $2/kg. 5 kg minimum Guest access In addition to the house, you have access to the garden and restaurant. For lovers of refreshing swims, the Rio Tigre, with its translucent waters and natural pools, passes at the foot of the property. And "La Bruja", a beautiful little waterfall surrounded by greenery and serving as a natural shower is only a few minutes' walk away. Other things to note Don't think, when you see the mosquito nets in the photos, that you're going to be disturbed or even eaten alive by hordes of hungry insects every night at nightfall! Strangely, although we are in the middle of the rainforest and the houses are very open, mosquitoes are rare. The lights mainly attract a few beautiful insects or moths that are not very disturbing and that you will be happy to take pictures of. Note that there is no internet access in Amazonita's accommodations for the simple reason that there is little or no telephone network where we are and that we would have to invest in very expensive high-end equipment to have it. Instead, see it as an advantage, take the opportunity to observe the nature around you and spend evenings putting the world to rights with your soul mate or friends over a drink or a hot cup of tea. I promise, it's crazy good… Anyway, that's what everyone who stays with us tells us. If you have an emergency, however, please note that there is still a fairly good Wi-Fi network in the lodge restaurant. Finally, if you are traveling with several couples or in a group and need more space, you can book Casa Zephyr or Casa Zénon, two lovely houses also located on the property and which can also comfortably accommodate up to 6 people each (with Kitchen).
