The staff is exemplary and would rival top resort personnel in Germany and Austria. Everyone raves about the food and for good reason — it is fine quality. The environment surrounding the camp/lodge is quite beautiful with abundant birdlife and the assorted alligators and armadillos.

We stayed at Tom's House with was rustic but fine for 3 night stay—the only issue was the A.C which was so loud we couldn't sleep with it on. The tap water does have a bad smell and taste as it is drawn from a well and most likely has mineral deposits. Luckily soft drinks, tap beer, and wine is free!

There is a serious mosquito situation on the island, except on the beach or in a skiff, and it is necessary to apply insect repellent whenever you are outside. I would also suggest bringing or buying (in the lodge store) Insect Shield clothing as you will benefit from it greatly.

The big and rather unpleasant surprise were the multiple stuffed dead animals displayed on the walls and in/on cases in the lodge. There are many deer heads looking down at you.

Overall because of the staff and the birdlife it was a good stay and we will most likely return.
