A real retreat set in lush gardens with porch rockers and a creek-side trail to the second waterfall. Dorms and bandas (thatched-roofed huts) use separate bathrooms with individual room locks and plenty of space. Splurge on a cottage with gorgeous batiks, private deck and shower views of the falls. A great on-site restaurant attracts nonguests for espresso drinks and homemade meals.
Many of the ingredients on the menu come from the on-site vegetable garden. A nightly set menu (US$20, reserve ahead), with a vegan option, is served in an atmospheric dining room with a log fire and well-stocked bar. Activities range from abseiling to mountain biking, fly fishing and coffee tours on the lodge plantation.
