10/10. Casa Bambu was everything we needed. My parents, myself, and sister and brother in law and their two kids (8 and 4) stayed in Feb 2024. Casa Bambu felt private and right in the middle of the jungle, while also being just a 2 min drive from restaurants, bars, the beach, etc. The gate and Guard house at the top of our drive made us feel at ease about safety with kids. The separation of the top and bottom floors was great for the family with kids in our group, but it was easy to cohabitate as well! We found ourselves gathering on the top floor open air balcony a lot! Having AC in the bedrooms and most of the bathrooms was a life saver. Beds were very comfortable. Ample storage space in all of the bedrooms. House was very clean, and Laura the housekeeper was phenomenal. With kids, sandy feet and wet pool clothes, Laura came in clutch every day and made the house feel spotless and refreshed. It was also great to have the option of laundry being done as needed! Outside, the pool area was so nice. Ample seating between loungers, table with umbrella, and the built in benches along the pool area. Pool was clean and refreshing temperature. Wildlife Report: As a photographer I was thrilled at the amount of up close wildlife we saw everyday, including all of types of monkeys every day, a sloth in the tree near the pool, toucans, macaws, hummingbirds, blue morpho butterflies, Agouti, geckos, etc. Susan the concierge was also lovely and helpful! We will be back with more friends!
