Rainforest Retreat
I think so far the best place we went too.
Very beautiful place where you get to have your own little spot, surrounded by the forest. You are right in townyet it feels like you are not when in the campsite. Lovely bar and restaurant. Free sauna and spa (though the spa wasnt quite working). The kitchen and lounge was clean, lovely and modern, kettles, toasters were provided. They were no kitchen appliances appart from that. The shower were really comfortable, they were even hairdryers and straighteners! Payed 48 dollars for two people in a powered site which did not seem much given how happy we were with the place!

I have mixed feelings about this place...
The place itself is nice, you get to choose were you camp, there is lots of shaddy areas and you are on grass, the place is well maintained.
But... It was quite annoying to have to pay for a baby.
The kitchen closes at 10pm... It really felt like we could not enjoy a chilled evening drinking tea and reading and were kicked out.
..
And while showering the lights turned off by 9.30pm. Not very pleasant.
Other than that, nice to have fresh herbs in the kitchen, the kitchen appliances were provided, it was lacking a kettle though.
River is a short walk away, but... Sandflies are fierce!!

Lovely surroundings by the river.
Insect repellant is a must have since they are so many sandflies. They are toilets but no water. Nice market on a Sunday with coffee and food. There is also a big walk starting from this place.
