Guests have exclusive access to the entire second and third floors of the house, as well as full access to the jungle/farm property and the open-air kitchen where breakfast is served. You are welcome to prepare your own meals in the kitchen, which is shared with three other guesthouses on the property but is used infrequently.
Breakfast is included with your stay and is offered from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM. Guests are served organic island coffee, herbal tea from the gardens, and farm-fresh breakfast foods prepared by a friendly local cook.
Guests are invited to take a free tour with the local site manager of the 1-hectare (2.5-acre) guesthouse property, which includes farm animals, tropical fruits, organic gardens, and examples of sustainability and self-sufficiency in the jungle.
The farm is home to three friendly and well-behaved dogs: Vago, Osa, and Navi. They provide company and security 24/7. The dogs are always around the property but do not enter the house. They enjoy being petted, but this is optional.
The entire property is a lush tropical forest, abundant with plant and animal life. Guests may often encounter small, shy jungle animals around the property, including birds, butterflies, bees, monkeys, frogs, toads, spiders, and small bats. Sometimes these creatures may take shelter inside as well.
In keeping with our vision, we try to use natural remedies to manage them, which we are happy to share with you upon your arrival. None of these species are aggressive, toxic to humans, or otherwise dangerous. There is only one venomous animal on the whole island, the coral snake, which is timid and rarely seen. These creatures contribute to the natural beauty and diversity that make Ometepe a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
