We are a hospitality family business founded in 1991 by a couple with a dream. A Palestinian immigrant and a Venezuelan. We are located in a remote part of the Orinoco River Delta, and we host travelers from all over Venezuela and the world who want to come and experience a unique time in nature.
"Roaring howler monkeys welcome the dawn. Piranhas clamp onto anything that bleeds. Screaming clouds of parrots gather at dusk, and weaving bats gobble insects under the blush of a million stars. For wildlife-viewing on the water's edge.
A deep-green labyrinth of islands, channels and mangrove swamps engulfing nearly 30,000 sq km – the size of Belgium – this is one of the world's great river deltas and a mesmerizing region to explore. Mixed forest blankets most of the land, which includes a variety of palms. Of these, the moriche palm is the most typical and important, as it is the traditional staple food for the delta's inhabitants, the Warao people, and provides material for their crafts, tools, wine and houses."

- Three meals a day. Meals are usually based on: rice, eggs, cornflour, cheese, plantains, black or kidney beans, and vegetables. We occasionally serve chicken, meat, and fish. We can adapt to your diet as long as it is reasonably within our capabilities and budget.
- We provide you with a private cabin in our garden with a private bathroom. You will occasionally have to share your cabin with other team members of the same gender if space becomes limited. Sharing will be for a maximum of 1 to 3 nights at a time. You will have your own space almost 100% of the time, as it is very rare that space will become limited.

- This is a photographer's paradise.
- Great place for swimming and kayaking, and simply relaxing and enjoying nature.
- Satellite internet is available for a few hours every day, usually after 5pm. It is not very fast, but it is enough to send emails, use WhatsApp, and light use of social media.
- Our staff are very friendly and has been working with workwayers for the last 6 years. Nature Lives Here.
