This place is a real gem, tucked away in a jungle. It's fabulous. We were there for 2 nights of our week in DR, and those 2 nights were my best nights of sleep on our entire trip. The good: The people there were fabulous - literally every single one of them, the food was amazing, the construction of the treehouses is solid and extremely well done. Having our own bathroom was nice because I honestly wasn't expecting that to be the case. The zip lines were incredibly fun, and we loved the seclusion the location offers. The pool was nice...we swam during a rain storm in the jungle, which was an amazing experience. The bad: There wasn't enough "bad" to convince me to rate lower than 5 stars, but there were some things that I would have liked to be different... There's zero connectivity to the outside world...zero. The little restaurant at the parking lot has an option to pay $10 for wifi, but it's incredibly slow and barely works. It's fine for a quick check on something with your phone, but don't expect to be able to use a laptop for any actual work, or even to make a voice call. There's no cell service at all (which could be good or bad, I suppose, depending on your perspective). My biggest frustration was the lack of hot water. I understand why, but cold showers are only tolerable for so long. There's one shower that has 2 shower heads, where one is cold and the other is scalding hot. I managed to find a way to blend them a little to achieve "warm", but it wasn't easy. They tell you the hike to the zip lines is steep, but thats an understatement. It's maybe a 20% grade. It's a hard hike on cement where traction is tough. But the zip lining was worth the effort to climb to the top. Again, I'll stress that none of the "bad" things were enough for me to dock any stars from this review. It was an amazing experience, and I'd gladly return.
