Featuring a balcony with garden views, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden, Paradiselodge Jungleguesthouse can be found in Platanillo, close to Nauyaca Waterfalls and 18 km from Alturas Wildlife Sanctuary. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. Staff on-site can arrange a shuttle service. Staying in wooden house surrounded by jungle, nature, animals sounds, flying birds and all the green around was amazing! View from the balcony is spectacular, we relaxed and had a great time, even saw a Tuckan very very close :) kitchen is well equipped, we didn’t lack anything and felt very comfortable. Swimming pool was clean and kids had a lot of fun there :) 10/10, worth recomanding! As an advantage I can add closeness of Nauyaca Waterfalls, if anyone is planning a visit, the bungalow is a perfect location.
