We enjoyed being on the river and the free kayaks. Watching life on the river go on while lounging on the deck. The swimming pool was a good way of cooling off.
The food from the restaurant was always good and sometimes excellent.
The staff were all super friendly and were always on hand. The owner helped us booked tickets to Livingston.
Our room was clean and comfortable and we had space to unpack.

Beautiful location on the river, the bungalows are very nice as well. The pool was great! Food is good with many vegetarian opties and not to expensive. Staff is very friendly. We have had a really good stay
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.

Beautiful remote location with many jungle lodges (from super remote to more public) along the river. Great jungle hikes, caves, kayaking with plenty of nature and wildlife. Definitely a required stop when visiting Guatemala, will visit again!
The Hotelito is a little paradise on earth. The bungalows, but also the simpler rooms are spacious, well ventilated and comfortable.
The food is delicious and has absolutely reasonable prices. The staff is amazing, they even organize the tours and shuttles you might need!
The common areas are huge, with a lot of hammocks to hang out after a swim in the river.
Good to know: The showers run with river water and are a bit salty - but that's not a problem!
There was a free launch to and from the hotel and the town when checking in or out. It was a 30 minute walk to the main road in the town. The bungalows were spacious with a great shower and aircon. The pool was a fair size. The food was good quality and reasonable for a hotel. There were inexpensive activities available. The staff were helpful and available.
Breakfast was delicious and prices were comparable to restaurants outside of hotel. Hotel also offered an hour or two (don't remember clearly) of free little foot paddling boats, which was fun to pass the time. The hotel is nice and secure as well with security outside of resort. Loved that they were pet friendly as well, so I got to bring my pup along!
I enjoyed my stay in the hostel! I checked in at 11.30 pm and that was no problem at all. The room and bathroom were very clean, the wifi was decent enough to get some work done and Flor even warmed up my breakfast after my meeting ended. Would recommend it if you stay the night in Rio Dulce town!
Everything about this hotel is amazing! Starting with the super kind owners and staff that make you feel at home at all times. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, the restaurant delicious and the surroundings beautiful. I know I will be back ❤️❤️. loved it so much! Gracias por todo!
We had a very nice one night stay. Unfortunately we arrived late but the hotel still picked us from Rio Dulce. Free boat pickup. Shared bathroom was clean. Clean basic room with a fan. Free kayaks to use around. It’s a good place to relax. Delicious pancakes & fair prices. Helpful staff.
I really loved this little hotel! The staff is super friendly, dorms are very comfortable (I happily stayed in a 4 person instead of the 6 I booked!), the food is great and it is very affordable. You can also rent kayaks for free or take a boat to nearby activities on the river.
The place is beautiful, facilities are clean and uniquely thought out. Food at the restaurant is good. They have a boat shuttle to take you to hotel for free. The place is environmentally conscious. Pool is great and there are monkeys around.
I loved everything about my stay at Tortugal. From the staff, service, attention, food, grounds, lodging, and peacefulness. Angela, Leo, and Rudy were amazing. They went above and beyond to make us feel like stars!!
Wonderful location! We enjoyed this uniquely located hotel with its minimalist accommodation
and back-to-nature feel. Loved the kayaking, paddle boarding, and the kind and helpful staff!
Food was delicious!
Situated right on the water, this hotel offered a beautiful restaurant, hammocks to relax in, and the breeze off the water was wonderful. The room was very clean, the shower had good hot water and pressure.
Liesel was awesome and communicative. The food was outstanding (did a 4 course dinner with wine pairing), and the whole vibe of the hotel was relaxed and modern while still being an eco lodge.
Loved the setting, a hidden gem on the rio dulce, they have a free shuttle to take you from the puerto to the hotel. Rooms are nice, all open so you can wake up with the sound of birds.
The best part was the wonderful host Angela. Hotel located in a really idyllic place only a short ride out of town . Food excellent . Angela fantastic .
Great hotel .
We stayed for 1 night to split the drive between Flores and Guatemala City. It was fine for that. Service was good. Extra large double bed was comfortable.
forgot my iphone charger but we’re not willing to look for a. solution to return it. literally said: it’s not the problem of the hotel. Overpriced hotel
