These structures are favored
by the Americans who have chosen to live in Yelapa because
of their comfort and rustic nature. They are designed to
be breezy and cool, and accentuate your feelings of being
in a tropical garden. They open up on the ends to wonderful
views of the gardens and the jungle. Beds hang from the
rafters and are closed off with mosquito netting. For anyone
who ever wanted to sleep in a tree house, these are five
star accommodations.
Three of the palapas, including
the one shown at left, are two story structures that sleep
up to seven guests. The newest Palapa is sequestered on
the far side of the stream that runs through the property.
It is a bungalow with 3 rooms that sleeps six guests, but
could easily accommodate twice that many.
