Your Private Chef & Concierge

Imagine waking up to breakfast prepared for your group while you watch the jungle come alive around you. Chef Rambo and his team can prepare everything from casual family meals to special dinners, accommodating dietary restrictions and individual preferences. As your concierge, Rambo can also arrange transportation, excursions, and special experiences throughout your stay.

Good to know: chef fees are based on group size, number of meals, and the cost of ingredients and groceries — ask Rambo for a quote.

The Jungle Is Part of the Experience

You don’t have to leave Justo Perfecto to experience Costa Rica’s incredible wildlife. Toucans, monkeys, parrots, sloths, and other rainforest visitors can often be spotted right from the property.
