Backpacking Special 65% off, April, May, June, July 2016.
Backpackers are now welcome to Private Wildlife Refuge & Eco Lodge Montecristo, and now offering a huge 65% discount during the low season.
Affordable for some backpackers; $35.00 per person per night with breakfast and dinner, (lunch not included) you may use the canoe and kayak to play around the river, do some hiking, birding in the rain forest. You get your money’s worth.
There are trails for hiking in the private wildlife refuge, which is a good place for birding and discovering the exuberant vegetation of the rain forest.
You may fish from the riverbank, they provide fishing gear, but you must fetch your own bait, like worms or sardine. You may tip one of the boys to fetch you the worms or sardine if you prefer.
You may also relax and cool down in a hammock under the mid-day breeze on the palapa that overlooks the river.
