Rooms
The Shinta Mani Wild Hotel features 15 uniquely designed tents that blend harmoniously into the rainforest. Planning for these special accommodations took 7 years. It was worth it: The luxurious tents seem to grow with the trees. In addition to stunning views over the river, they provide luxury and comfort. Hotel guests can choose between the “Wild Tents,” “Waterfall Tents,” and “Two Bedroom Tents.” These are further themed to transport you through time, such as the “Bohemian Tent.” The tents are equipped with high-quality furnishings and promise a carefree stay. Each accommodation features a terrace and large windows, allowing you to literally sit in the jungle.
Culinary
The values of the Shinta Mani Wild Hotel are also reflected in its culinary offerings. Every afternoon, a member of the hotel team ventures into the jungle to search for the culinary treasures of the national park. Hidden in the gnarled branches of the forest are delicacies such as bamboo shoots, mangosteen, wild potatoes, and figs. The hotel team includes people from the local community who are eager to share their knowledge about the forest. A fruitful exchange emerges, reflected in the delicious adventurous dishes. You can enjoy these in the hotel’s “Headquarters” or at a location of your choice before embarking on a hike.
