Out of the ordinary location and atmosphere, more like an eco lodge that we stayed in on the Amazon in Perú. Quiet, peaceful with excellent staff and limited hours of service.
PeruThe staff, K Leo was knowledgeable, helpful and did everything with a positive smile. The facilities were excellent and perfect
United States of AmericaThe room was so comfortable and showers were really nice. We had our own private balcony with a hammock. It was a perfect hotel!
United States of AmericaYes. And the Staff was exeptional. Rudy was the best staff.
BelizeBeautiful Marina, cozy eco-rooms, nice views of the river and property walkways, kayaks available, delicious breakfast included.
GuatemalaEverything was amazing, the location, the staff, the rooms and the whole experience. It is perfect for a family trip. Also I would definitelly recomend the restaurant, the prices were fine and the food delicious!
ColombiaI LOVED staying in the Arboles bungalow overlooking the lush vegetation. Spending my mornings relaxing at the Rio Dulce watching the boats pass by, chatting with the “cruisers”, planning my upcoming adventurers to Playa Blanca, the Castillo, riding a collectivo to Paraiso. Staff was wonderful...special thanks to Leo, Zonia, Herbert, Blanca and Martha!
United States of AmericaThe staff was helpful. The main manger, Leo, was so accommodating. He helped us, answered our questions, and gave us ideas. It was so peaceful and relaxing. The family villa has a Spanish style influence. The rooms were a good size with storage shelves. The bathroom was large with a jacuzzi tub and a separate shower. The food was delicious. This place also has great wifi. Additionally, we had our laundry done and it was very reasonable pricing.
United States of AmericaEverything. The staff was amazing, very friendly. The location by the water, the restaurant, the games.. Really nice place.

In the Rio Dulce river near a 16th century castle the Tortugal peninsula is bathed by almost constant on shore breezes providing a cool and refreshing place.
This special location upriver from the village and bridge gives the pleasure of clean water for swimming in the deliciously reviving Rio Dulce.
A nicely located diving platform leads to the floating sun deck thoughtfully furnished with comfortable loungers providing the ideal place to watch river traffic going by.
Fiber optic wifi throughout. Free vehicle parking and pickup at parking lot or municipal dock. Use of our kayaks, water refills no extra charge. Library, homemade food, dog to pet.
All rooms have views of either the river or the jungle. All rooms except El Ranchito have a private bathroom. Certain units have a seating area where you can relax. Rooms are kept cool with overhead fans and thick native roofs.
Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.9 for a two-person trip.
