Family hotels and homes in Izabal

In the Rio Dulce river near a 16th century castle the Tortugal Boutique River Lodge peninsula is bathed by almost constant on shore breezes providing a cool and refreshing place.

This special location upriver from the village and bridge gives the pleasure of clean water for swimming in the deliciously reviving Rio Dulce. Really nice facilities, amazing food and great staff.

The area is popular for canoeing and hiking. The property is a 60-minute boat ride from Río Dulce, and a 25-minute boat ride through the magnificent Río Dulce Canyon to the funky Garifuna town of Livingston. Nature, river and canoying amazing

Because of past experiences elsewhere in Guatemala, I was a little worried about being disappointed or the food being overpriced/mediocre quality and not having other options to eat. But that was not the case at all here. Everything was excellent, the location is wonderful, it is so quiet and peaceful, the staff is great, and the food is a great value and wonderful quality. I loved it so much that we may be coming back here soon.
