Fern House is beautiful house set in lush rainforest. Everything we could possibly want was there. We spent a lot of time just hanging out on the extensive balcony, and our boys loved the upstairs retreat area with its musical instruments. It was lovely to hear the array of wildlife sounds at night! The only thing to point out for those traveling in winter is that the pool is now covered so receives basically no sunlight, and as a result was freezing - a bit disappointing as we were hoping to use it.
