Evergreen Lodge

All of those working people were extremely kind and cool except the lady at the reception. I had a small problem and she was not willing to help me. Nature!

The opening times for the pool were not made for the guests. 9AM-9PM. What about 7am-7pm? It would fit to those restaurant times. We wanted to use the pool at 9 am. Unfortunately it was not prepared till 10 am. I’m not sure whether the name Evergreen is right. They spread repellents and the cleaning water from the rooms were put into nature.

- the location of the bungalow in the jungle; - the interior of the bungalow; - the reception staff which was so nice and so supportive. We are a French couple traveling by ourselves. We had only booked the room, with no service. The reception staff has organised everything for us, and very sympatically. - the guide, Fernando, of our boat tour, very interesting and very supportive - the lunches and diners, which are simple, but very good and very healthy.

We liked everything.

It’s a quick 5 minute boat into the town. Buddha cafe has a lovely menu and great views of the river… I’d definitely recommend eating here over the hotel. Has trips available which are very good.

If you’re after a real outdoorsy experience then this may be for you. Instead of did glass for windows it is just meshing. Not ideal when it’s raining. It’s impossible to keep anything dry, the bedsheets bath towels, clothing etc all damp. First big red flag was being warned not to take any food at all into your room because of the monkeys. I love monkeys, but if they can break into your room for food then a human can get in twice as easy, so leaving anything in the room without fear of it being stolen wasn’t possible. Again, a rainforest I get it. But the bugs that get into the room are on a whole other level. Having ants army of ants make their way through your room doesn’t scream 4*. The bathrooms are dated and grotty. Smells very damp. The toiletries provided are very poor quality. All meals are served from behind a Perspex screen. By the most unhappy team members. It’s like being in prison. You can even get your own glass of water or juice. One of the pools is essentially river water I think? Absolutely gross. And if it shouldn’t have been like it, then there was no signage to say it was out of order.

Breakfast the best front desk needs to communicate better as one said ten min before dinners another 2 hrs????

A little smell from septic? ??
