    Great location, surrounded by nature and away from it all. Lovely that you have to walk there. Dinner was really good quality. Cabin room was super comfortable and private. Staff friendly and family feeling.

    Nice quiet location in the forest. Easy to arrange tours of Semuc Champey. The guides for Semuc Champey were good. And it included a cave tour

    The hostel is located in nature from where you can reach the Semuc Champey with an hour walk. The kitchen and common area is really nice and chill. Just remember to take your grocery as last shops are in Lanquin Martha cooks really nice dinners...

    A purely magical place, great staff, authentic food cooked freshly every day by local people. It’s a bit far off but that‘s the best thing about it: No cars, just the sounds of the jungle and river closeby but still good location to reach the nice...
