I have to laugh at the people who complain about the bugs at this place...LOL!! In case you haven't noticed, the word "Jungle" is right in the name, and you're in Honduras not on 5th Avenue. My wife and I found the same when we were there (March 2008), and the rooms were very basic and rustic, but it was... More

I didn't stay here but did two of the activities offered - the zip lining and the white water rafting. Both were a lot of fun and the guides were part of the whole experience! Well worth a trip and the guides really take care of you and ensure your safety. More

We were really happy to be taken by a cab driver and brought directly to the lodge arriving at the ferry. The place is situated in a beautiful spot with 2 littles natural pools on the rocks, who can cliff jump to the river above. The main building made of wood is nice open air spot where you eat and...

I heard about the Jungle River Lodge from a friend who went there several years ago and read about the lodge in Lonely Planet. The bunkhouse was fine but nothing fancy. I went rafting and arranged a private kayaking trip. The river sports seemed a little sketchy, although instructors gave a decent white-water safety lecture. I did not find the... More

We prefer staying there in the middle of the forest than in the city of La Ceiba. At that lodge, you fell safe and have a chance to talk with hondurian locals people that work there. We asked for a pricate room so no dorm for us. the room was clean with a overview on the Cangrejal River. That was... More

the rafting trip was decent here. Although they really should let tourists know about the hike to the starting point...people who are not good swimmers may find it difficult...rafting was great with good guides...my problem was with the room...I can't complain too much since it was free with the rafting but it was still one of the worst rooms I...

I read all the good rafting comments and am glad folks had a good experience, but I would never raft with them myself, as there have been two deaths on their rafting trips in the past five years or so. That said, I love the riverside setting of the lodge, and went by to have a meal there. No food... More

Wanted to stay in the park and heard about this place. I went up from La Ceiba for an organised walk to find myself also doing a zipline! Lucky I had no problem with this as it was very unexpected. It turned out to be the best zipline I have ever done. The security aspects were very good. The walk... More

Wanted to do the river rafting and so I stayed the night at their hostel Banana Republic Guesthouse. Next morning I got a ride up a dirt road alongside the Cangrejal river. Arrived and met a young woman who had done the rafting the previous day. She told me she had been the only guest the previous night. Then 6... More

We organised to stay just one night having taken the ferry from placencia to puerto Cortes in October. At the time of reserving our double room with bathroom and one dorm space for the three of us, they asked us to confirm again one week in advance. I told then that as we were travelling from Xmas day I could... More
