Cahaya Nest is in the Rainforest Nest
Step into the tranquility of Rainforest Nest, an enchanting eco home with 6 unique Nests that blend rich history with modern elegance. Once a US Navy officers' residence, now transformed by surfers and yoga practitioners, each Nest offers peace and a deep connection with nature.
The living roof keeps the space cool, providing cozy nooks perfect for reading, blogging, or enjoying the treetops and fruit bats. The atmosphere exudes bohemian, beach-inspired, and holistic vibes, creating a sanctuary for unwinding.
Wake up to nature's sounds, fresh air, and the rainforest's gentle symphony. Enjoy a complimentary breakfast of homemade sourdough bread, peanut butter with cacao, eggs, bananas, and our exclusive Mindanao coffee blend.
Rainforest Nest is not just a retreat for humans—our nosy neighbors, the monkeys, love it here too! These mischievous critters are always up for some monkey business.
A friendly tip for our nature-loving guests: keep your food indoors and out of reach when the monkeys are around. They're quite the opportunists and love a good snack! Remember, it's best not to provoke or challenge these cheeky creatures if they get close. And most importantly, please avoid feeding them any food—let's keep our wild friends wild!
Discounts!
Our guests often regret not booking longer, so we've added in discounts for stays of 2 nights or more. The longer you stay, the bigger the discount. Treat yourself to that extra day!
Senior Citizens and PWDs enjoy discounts as well. Simply present your valid ID to our Nest staff after checking in. The discount will be granted to the respective cardholder after verification and evaluation by our Accounting Department.
For multiple discounts, only the discount with the higher value will be granted to the respective cardholder.
