Descripción
This is a small jungle hideaway located in the middle of the Rio Dulce National Park, between Rio Dulce town and Livingston (Caribbean side of Guatemala). Although it feels like a million miles from anywhere, being just off the popular tourist route between Livingston and the town of Rio Dulce means that the hotel is easily accessible by boat.
There are Hot Springs, Waterfall, and the Manatee Reserve nearby.

The hotel has 3 bungalows, 2 rooms and a 3-beds Jungle Loft. max 15 persons bed space. We offer drinks, restaurant services, rent kayaks, organize tours, there is yoga hut, dock to swim off etc. We work with the local indigenous community. All our electricity comes from solar, we have limited internet, hot showers and we do our best to minimize our impact on our environment.

If you have more questions about our place, please send us a mail or check our website There are more pictures on our Facebook and on Instagram.

Superb experience in the middle of the jungle. The place is so quiet and beautiful ! I loved working here, but also kayaking or reading in a hammock. Oh, and the food is delicious! The new owner is very friendly as well as the rest of the team. Go go go !!

The Hotel and the area are really amazing and it is a true jungle paradise.

Wow - where to start? This has truly been a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I am extremely grateful to Aska for giving me this opportunity. From the moment I stepped off the dock, I was blown away by this beautiful, idyllic paradise. Straight away I was made to feel welcome, and I feel privileged to have called this place home for six… read more weeks.

Aska is a wonderful host, and I enjoyed spending many hours chatting with her and exchanging stories. I hope one day she finally writes her 'Tales from the jungle' book, because I've no doubt it'll be an instant best seller! I will miss our after-dinner kayaks by starlight, and humiliating you at chess!

The work itself is not too strenuous, and both the type and quantity of work matched what was in the Workaway advert. While this, of course, may change according to business needs, when I was there it consisted of helping with check-ins and check-outs, welcome new guests, helping prepare breakfast and dinners, organizing tours, assisting with shopping, some light cleaning and various other administration tasks. If you have a particular skill (e.g. artwork, landscaping, computers, or something that can be passed on to or taught to the workers), Aska is very approachable and open to suggestions. What I particularly liked about this experience is that Aska entrusts the volunteers with a lot of responsibility, so you honestly feel that you're a part of the team and doing real, meaningful work that makes a difference. Once you've been through a period of training, the work is generally very predictable - you know when you'll be working, and what type of work needs to be done, which allows you to plan your copious amounts of free time.

The benefits in the Workaway advert are as described - the food is delicious and plentiful, there is a return boat trip to Livingston once per week, and the volunteers have their own private cabin to share. You're not expected to work more than your allotted hours, and you've plenty of free time to relax. Undoubtedly the best benefit of all is all the free time you have to enjoy the property's dog Rasta, whom I only narrowly avoided sneaking home with me...

Be aware that the location is quite remote - it is not possible to walk from place to place, and all distances are in terms of 'kayak distance' rather than 'walking' or 'bus'. However, I enjoyed the opportunity to disconnect from technology and re-connect with nature. After a couple of days in the jungle, I really got used to going to bed early and waking up early, and felt much better for it. And despite the remoteness, there are a variety of local sites that can be explored by kayak - some of these are breathtakingly beautiful, and even in the six weeks I was there I didn't get the chance to do everything that was on offer.

In conclusion, I would definitely recommend this Workaway to other travelers. However, not as a way of saving money or cheap travel, but as an actual EXPERIENCE, surrounded by nature, disconnected from technology, and feeling alive. This is truly an unforgettable experience that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
