Comfortable, inviting owner, lovely gardens and magical grounds. Cute cabin. clean shared bathroom with a HOT SHOWER and quality toilet paper (did not disintegrate). kayaks for rent and so much to see. Definitely hope to return and spend more time.
CanadaHotelito Perdido provides a great atmospheric stay at a riverside jungle lodge. The facilities combine rusticity with comfort. The vegetarian food is tasty and plentiful, and the communal dinners are lovely. There are plenty of excursions available and kayaks on hand at reasonable prices for independent exploration. Highly recommend!

United States of AmericaWonderful location! We enjoyed this uniquely located hotel with its minimalist accommodation and back-to-nature feel. Loved the kayaking, paddle boarding, and the kind and helpful staff! Food was delicious!
United States of AmericaFrom the blue morph butterflies floating around the gardens to the local hostel crab who hangs out in the bathroom sink at night, this place was delightful. I’m not normally a jungle girl, and it’s been taking me a bit to ease into with the mosquito nets during my travels—but this so far is one place where my nerves just relaxed and I was able to breathe a bit. Tim and his family were incredibly welcoming and made me feel super comfortable as a solo traveler by giving me advice on how to join group trips and what to do around Rio Dulce. I was also so happy to learn that the owner was from my state, which made this extra homely as during that point of my trip I was feeling incredibly homesick. Tim and his family are beautiful souls. The vegan dinners at night were on point and incredibly delicious. Overall, This place has a very homely vibe, where if you wanted to sit and relax all day, you could. Like no need to leave the hostel really.
United States of AmericaIt‘s nothing less then paradise. Everything about this place is great: nature, rooms, staff, food, things to do, places to chill… we couldn’t have dreamed this place more beautiful and will definitely be back!
United States of AmericaI loved everything great place with nice ambience and helpful staff great food and the homemade chocolate was to die for
