Overview

Rainforest Penthouse Apartment is part of Castara Retreats - a new eco-resort superbly situated above the fishing village of Castara and overlooking the broad sweep of Castara Bay. Built on sustainable tourism principles, the timber structure blends beautifully into the lush green of the rainforest - the perfect place to enjoy "living in the landscape". Bedroom 1 (Queen size bed)looks out over the deck to the ocean and beach beyond. Bedroom 2 can be arranged with twin beds or double bed and overlooks a grassy terrace and the valley beyond. The main living and dining areas occupy 500 sq ft of covered deck with a polished cypress floor and astounding unbounded views. There is a new, American-style well-equipped kitchen and a shower room. Bed linen and towels are changed twice weekly and full size frame mosquito nets are provided. The sandy beach is only four minutes walk as is the village with its little shops, cafes and fisherman's co-op. For larger family groups, you can also book the two studio apartments below Rainforest -Osprey and Pelican. They are built to the same high standards as Rainforest, enjoy the same views and each sleeps two people in either twin beds or a queen size bed. They are each 500 sq ft in size but can be joined together if desired. Nearby are three further lodges - Fisherman's - sleeping 2-3 people, Coasthanger - sleeping 2 and Birdsong - sleeping 4.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud

It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:

  • It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
  • If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
  • Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
