    Lots of biting insects, bring repellant!

    Lovely place hidden away in the jungle, good food, but not too far away from the town, so you're not "stuck." Very friendly and attentive staff.

    What a great place this is! In the middle of the jungle. I still don't know how they managed to create a variety of fantastic food for few people! And Masha the hostel dog is my favourite :)

    Location was cool and rooms where nice, you are a little detached from the rest of rio dulce, when I was there the hostel was very quite. Sure it would be fun if it was bsuy and were traveling with a big group. Free kayak is great

    Extremely beautiful accommodation! Loved the food sold at the restaurant (also reasonable price). Kayaks are for free and you can paddle out to a swimming platform where you can see manatees!!

    We had a lot of cockroaches and spiders, which is not avoidable in an area like that I guess. The beds have mosquito nets though so that helps. A kitchen for cooking yourself would be nice or even some appliances like a water kettle or toaster.

    Beautiful location, very relaxing and free canoes to go out whenever, food is good and fairly priced, staff and owner are very nice

    The location is absolutely wonderful. The room was gorgeous. Thatched palm leaves with open windows to hear the surrounding environment - we awoke to a river otter fishing outside the balcony one morning! The bed was really comfortable! The bathroom facilities were a little tired but fine. The food from the restaurant was good and the staff were really helpful and friendly. There was also a lovely dog :) There are kayaks to use free of charge to go to the nearby raft to swim in the river. We had an amazing stay!

    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.

    If you want a kitchen or walking access to a town this might not be ideal for you. But I personally loved Casa Perico!

    Absolutely wonderful! I loved arriving by boat. Using the canoes was loads of fun. Got lucky and had a great group of solo travelers with me in the dorm. The food is good and fairly priced (not dirt cheap, but worth the price).

    It was all good.

    From the moment we arrived in Rio Dulce we were directed to the coffee shop and the guy there contacted Casa Perico who sent their lancha to collect us 15 minutes later . We checked in early and enjoyed a spacious room with bathroom. Hot and cold water along with good basin and shaving mirrors. Very comfortable bed with good fans and mosquito net. Nice outside space at the cabin and plenty of other space to relax. The food and drink on offer was very good and priced fairly considering you are at a river lodge. The staff were very attentive and very helpful.Good information was available in multiple languages. Getting into and back from town was reasonably priced and regular.
