Lovely staff, the food they prepare is really delicious and they're happy to help you out with whatever you might need. Rooms and general facilities are lovely, nested into the lush jungle, hot shower has really good water pressure - stay if you can!

The laidback calm relax atmosphere. Nice staff and great biodiversity. The food and the shared dinner. One of the better hostels we ever stayed in..just realize it's luxury but basic as you stay in a remote place in nature

Great service from Javier and Enrique. Also all other employees were working with a smile and happy to help you with any kind of questions. We also received a nice tour through the beautiful garden.

Excellent wooden cabin room, very cozy and comfortable, enough space and amenities. Location is fantastic and feels very much like part of the jungle. There's even a crocodile in the creek flowing through the finca and joining Rio Dulce. The hotel has its own landing and you can do a great boat trip down to Livingston or up to the lake. Very reasonable price for a great lodging experience. Stayed an extra night!

Staff were so friendly and helpful. Pool was refreshing- needs a paint but I believe this is about to happen. Room was simple but comfortable. Good shower with hot water. Beds were very comfy. Lovely calm atmosphere. Restaurant and pool look out over the river. Dinner at restaurant was a bit pricey but good quality. Feels safe with a security gate and a long driveway off the main road.

This place is very close to paradise. The design of the hotel is very well thought, making it integrated with nature while being very elegant, comfortable and ecofriendly. The facilities are very clean anytime and you can find many spots to chill, relax and enjoy nature. The staff is very helpful and the food is great. Location is great, in a 3 minute boat shuttle you are in Rio dulce where you can take buses to Guatemala city or taxis to visit San Felipe Castle

Great place in the middle of nature. The rooms are quite open, so it's really cool that you sleep in the open air. But it's protected with mosquito nets and the beds also have mosquito nets. The wooden houses are in a forest/mangrove area on the lake, but they still managed to keep it clean! The relaxing areas are really nice and the restaurant is also good. The free kayaks are a plus! The staff is very friendly and a nice owner (who actually also works there sometimes instead of having others work for him all the time. Which doesn't happen a lot!). They pick you up from Rio Dulce for free for check in and check out. Great place to relax and enjoy nature!

Rio Dulce is a great spot to vacation, it's very relaxing.

Rio Dulce is a great spot to vacation, it's very relaxing. If you want more night life...then probably best to stay in Livingston. If you are ever in Livingston, the best Tapado was at a small restaurant Restaurante Gabby!! Unforgettable!! El Viajero didn't come close in flavor, maybe we just went on a bad day. Must see Siete Altares, beautiful waterfalls and blue turquoise water. We never felt unsafe, it's a very tranquil place in Rio Dulce.

If you travel solo you can't do anything as it's just for groups else yours are in excess of £250! It's not safe to hike to seven altars alone (I was told by locals) so it's just very far for no reason. The bus from GC was supposed to be 5 hours but it was 11!

I really wanted to like Rio Dulce.

I really wanted to like Rio Dulce. It turned out to be only a hub for boat and bus travel for me. Having spent two months in Guatemala by the time I got there, I was not surprised by the poverty or conditions. That said, I didn’t find much other than the castle to be places I wanted to see more of. It was very hot and humid in early July.

The comfortable rooms are rather large. You arrive by boat. The hotel will either take you to the center of Rio Dulce by its own boat or the staff con make arrangements for you if you want to go to Livingston, which is a nice day tour. The hotel offers a good breakfast. They also offer lunch and dinner. Not to foreget, you also swim in the rio.
