Prachtig, 10/10 would recommend!
Pros:

Idyllische plaats, prachtig hotel, héél lief personeel, superlekker eten: 10/10 voor de familydinner.

Cons:

Het is in de jungle, dus de beestjes moet je erbij nemen - maar al bij al viel dat ook nog héél goed mee.

Pareltje van Guatemala!
Pros:

Uniek verblijf aan de Rio Dulce! Dit paradijs is aan het water gelegen waar er voorzieningen zijn om de ontspannen in de hangmatten en een lekker drankje van de bar te drinken. Het hotel heeft kajaks ter beschikking zodat je op eigen houtje de fauna en flora kan ontdekken. Ook biedt het verblijf de mogelijkheid om deel te nemen aan daguitstappen. wij hebben hier zeker het "weg van de wereld gevoel" ervaren en zouden het iedereen aanbevelen!

Cons:

niets!

A Magical Riverside Escape, highly Recommended!
Pros:

El Hotelito Perdido is an absolute gem. Nestled right on the river, the natural surroundings are breathtaking, creating a truly magical atmosphere. The rooms are clean and simple, with beds on the upper level, and the sense of peace and tranquility here is priceless.

Tim, the owner, was extremely communicative both before our arrival and throughout our stay, making the experience seamless and welcoming. Dinner was delicious and generously portioned, and the breakfast (available for an extra fee) was excellent.

During our stay, we took an excursion to the waterfalls, Playa Blanca, and Livingston, which we booked directly through Tim. The whole experience was excellent and perfectly organized.

The hotel's overall ambiance is warm and inviting, making it an ideal place to unwind and appreciate the beauty of nature. Highly recommended!

Cons:

Nothing

Een klein paradijsje aan het water!
Pros:

Een klein uurtje varen, weg van de bewoonde wereld, vind je een klein paradijsje. We verbleven er drie nachten, voldoende om van de sfeer en de omgeving te genieten. Verwacht geen luxe verblijf, maar wel een onderkomen dat past in de omgeving. Er wordt in de gemeenschappelijke ruimte gezorgd voor een ontbijt, lunch (verschillende keuzemogelijkheden) en ‘s avonds is er een gezamenlijke maaltijd. Alle maaltijden waren vegetarisch en erg lekker. Er is keuze uit verschillende activiteiten, allemaal goed georganiseerd evenals een eventuele shuttlebus naar een volgende bestemming.

Cons:

De internet mogelijkheden zijn beperkt, maar ook dat hoort bij een verblijf buiten de bewoonde wereld.
