Riverhousethethethe lodge lodgeis a peaceful, retreat-like space surrounded by stunning jungle views. I had a private room with beautiful scenery, andthe lodge atmosphere was serene and healing. Tasks were flexible — I helped host guests, supported with social media, and joined in on events. Frank was a generous host who shared deep wellness insights. the lodgelodgefood was amazing, the lodgelodgestaff were lovely, and I enjoyedthe lodge lodgeswims, the lodgelodgeChoco Trail, and time with Frank's inspiring kids. A perfect place to reconnect with nature.

I've had a great time staying with Frank atthethethe lodge. It's a beautiful place in nature. There's fruits growing inthe lodge garden, a beautifulthe lodge lodgeyou can swim in and lots of quite places to relax. You do have to enjoy silence and being able to also enjoy yourself because there won't always be guest as it is different from normal hostels/hotels. the lodgelodgetaks are simple and you have more than enough free time. Frank taught me different things about natural food and so much more. I also got to meet his kids (6&7) which I played with and are so fun. It was a beautiful experience for me !!
