Tiskita Jungle Lodge

The staff excelled in hospitality, offering unique experiences and excellent service. Guests appreciated the consistent cleanliness of the accommodation and the bungalows.

We spent 2 nights at Tiskita and we really loved being surrounded by all of the jungle. It was an amazing setting with abundant wildlife. We saw so much wildlife, and even more on our rainforest guided walk with the lovely Rosa (squirrel monkeys, lizards, white face monkeys, vultures, agoutis, acoutis, butterflies and so much more). The description Rosa gave helped us to understand the environment so much better than had we have just wandered off on our own. She told us about their life cycles and their development, their biology and their habitat in such a great way. It would have been nice to have been informed about all of the hotels activities on check-in so we could have organised our time a bit better. We weren’t aware there was a night walk we could attend until about 5 minutes before it was going to start, at which point it was 8pm and we had already changed, but if we were told in advance, we would have prepared ourselves to be ready for it. We also didn’t realise that the food was a set menu - with set dining times. It would have been good to know this before too, as one member of our party missed several meals due to surfing for most of the day, so we would have preferred to just choose some light snacks throughout the day instead. All of the staff were really friendly and clearly eager to please. Tiskita lodge was a lovely stay, but not quite the luxury we had anticipated; perhaps through our own fault or perhaps through some marketing that makes it appear more luxurious than it is - don’t get me wrong, it’s beautiful, but you’re paying for the setting and Rosas expertise more than anything else.

Incredible place.
