"Great place if you are looking to do bird watching and other nature related activities. The bird feeders not only attract an incredible amount of birds but also some other mammals such as the Agouti and the Coati. The area is known for sightings of the King Vulture, all types of toucans, tanagers, parrots, etc. Including a Cayman that lives in the lagoon. They also have trails. Food was good, specially breakfast."
"We really enjoyed our peaceful stay at the lodge!
It was really special to sleep in the "tree-houses" surrounded by nature and waking up to the most beautiful view of the river!
The room and the whole lodge was really clean and the mosquito nets protected us really well.
All the tours we booked were a lot of fun and very interesting (Orlando gave us a lot of information), especially the hike was amazing!
The pool area is really nice and all the staff were amazing and always so friendly!...

Beautiful cays, remote tribal settlements, reserves teeming with wildlife and wild jungles lure adventurous travelers to this distant region on the Caribbean coast.
"This is a truly magical place. Secluded in an paradise island. Every single staff member did their best to provide us with a top-class experience. We only had one small hiccup with the concierge prior to check-in. We requested guidance in the country entry requirements and, although we were told that they would check with management, they never got back to us. It does not reflect poorly in the concierge but, in my humble opinion, in having the right training from management. No big deal. I explained this to hotel representatives as area of improvement and, it seems, they were interested in setting a protocol for it. Walking distance from the hotel, there is Derek’s Place, a diving center. Incredible night dive where we saw an octopus in action! And many other creatures. I would definitely come back to this place."

"This is a barely discovered gem, a rare destination that will leave you with lifelong memories. We stayed here 9 years ago, and returned this summer. The rainforest location is unique. We stayed in a treehouse, with frequent visits from spider monkeys and seemingly endless species of birds. We partook for a second time the riverboat tour through the local rainforest, up through the Nicaragua border. We saw spectacular macaws, toucans, and numerous other bird species. We encountered crocodiles, circling vultures over cow pastures, a green river snake swimming at the town boat dock. We saw other monkey species hanging out in the trees, iguanas…
But perhaps most memorable to us was the genuineness of the Eco Lodge staff. Many are local, and share with us their pride in their community. Their true warmth allows us to experience the rainforest, not as a visiting tourist, but as a proud local.
The guides are wonderful! They are smart, engaging and passionate. Even on our return boat ride across the river to the parking area, the staff member took a slight detour to point out colorful macaws eating fruit in a tree on the riverbank.
We came with our family, there were tourists of all ages, from young children to older retirees. Our binoculars and telephoto lenses got quite the workout!
While we are not professional birdwatchers, the diversity was remarkable. And, we found fellow tourists to be grounded, appreciative of life and the opportunity.
Thank you staff!!!"
