Quiet and relaxing place, within the forest! Don't miss the Yaxchilan ruins in the area, its 45min drive from there. Note that a wonderful toucan is also living here! (Beware the mosquitos also)
Nos quedamos encantados con la vista a las lagunas. Bajamos a otra laguna donde unos locales nos dejaron usar la canoa y el atardecer ahí estuvo perfecto. La comida fue rica (podría tener menor precio) Las cabañas para hospedarse se veían muy comodas.
It is a nice and excellent place to connect with nature
Awesome installation and personal attention from the owner. If you want a peaceful stay surrounded by nature this is a must visit.
