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. What did we like? All of it! The rooms are tastefully decorated. They were very comfy, despite being in the middle of nature. Attentive staff, picked us up to and fro Rio Dulce. Good food, cold beers. Very refreshing to be able to jump in the river when hot!

El Hotelito Perdido is a little jungle hideaway located in a middle of Rio Dulce National Park. TLDR: Go there. The best advice I saw in the reviews was to book one more night the you planned to. I wish I could give more than 10, because this place is truly amazing. You understand you're in heaven the moment you step off the boat. The surroundings are incredible, the rooms are comfortable (even hot-ish water in the shower), the meals are big and delicious, and Tim, Alejandra and the whole staff are helpful (from activities, advice, and transportation to anywhere when leaving). I was surprised by how many things you could do in the area. I thought we will mostly be stuck in the hotel (not a bad thing with this one) reading books and swimming in the river, but eventually we had ourself an awesome schedule that is possible thanks to the transformation and guides (and kayaks) the hostel offer, and actually had to decide between activities because we didn't have time to do them all in our 3 nights stay. Also, the chocolate is amazing and so is the massage. It seemed to me like the place is truly doing a good job in being an eco-hotel so also thumbs up for that. I contemplated a lot about visiting Rio Dulce area, and after not meeting anyone planning to go there throughout our whole trip, I started regretting my decision to come. I'm so happy we eventually decided to go because it was one of our favorite places in Guatemala (maybe the favorite).

Set in Puerto Barrios, Hotel Posada Stella Maris offers 5-star accommodation with a garden and a shared lounge. There is big enough and clean room with nice moutain views balcony.

Set in Izabal, 45 km from Castillo de San Felipe de Lara, Reserva Natural Cañón Seacacar offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant. Perfect place hidden in a small village. It’s the only accommodation in the village and has been build to help the local community. The first language in the village is Q’eqchi, the children are now learning Spanish in school from about age 5. The staff of the hotel is from the village and for them it is a place to learn and work in tourism. They are all very friendly and helpful. If you want to have a great Guatemalan experience in one of the most beautiful places of Guatemala, where the crowds don’t go (yet), this is where you want to go! I reached the hotel by a two hour trail that is insanely beautiful, constructed by the people of the village, easy to follow and a good climb to two wooden miradors with lake and jungle views. Always with the sound of absolutely fantastic river ‘sauce’ on the background. The next day I went down on a tube and they carried my bag down. The tubing in the river is what will drop your yaws!! Absolutely beautiful, a cañón with high Walls on both sides. Everything is well organized and clean. It absolutely worth a visit! I’m writing this review because I could not believe that I was the only tourist there (on a Saturday)! You will not regret your visit and you will probably (hopefully) write a similar review to help this village and the people creating a better future for there town. There are several projects ongoing, including deforestation! Go and enjoy jungle, river and peace while enjoying great food and comfortable accommodation(affordable too!)

Livingston Resort Hotel has a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Lívingston. The pool was amazing and has heating, allowing you to enjoy it even late at night. The food was amazing, I tried all of the pasta places in town and none came close to match theirs.

Casa Nostra has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Lívingston. With free WiFi, this 3-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk. Exceptionally helpful.staff. I only managed to meet Stuart, the owner the morning I was leaving but he made it his business to find me and within 20 minutes organised a shuttle for me to Flores. His staff were also very attentive and gave me all the info I needed for my stay but we're in no way pushy trying to sell me tours. The room was perfect. Clean with a really good fan and a balcony. It was a shared bathroom but only shared with 2 other rooms. Location is stunning. Right on the water and they have a restaurant/bar. I loved Livingston and Casa Nostra made.my stay even better. They also have a few very placid dogs lazing about which is lovely. Highly recommended!
