Welcome to Chaa Creek

We quickly discovered that the Lodge at Chaa Creek is as the kids [probably don’t] say [anymore], “Off the hook.” Incredibly beautiful grounds, the nicest staff ever, and a gorgeous bungalow greeted us complete with these towel animals that the boys thought were the coolest things they’d ever seen.

Here are some other pictures of our home for the next five nights.

There was no air conditioning and no need for it because the air circulation was perfect. The wifi didn’t work in the room either, which was a much-welcomed respite from always being connected.

That first afternoon we took things kind of slow and just went for a little walk down by the river.

The kids loved the giant bamboo.

And we got a sneak peek at the canoes we would take for a spin the next day.

I was particularly taken with the mango trees full of fruit.

Mango Tree!

That night we went for our first dinner in the restaurant and knew we were in for a super foodie good time!
