En pleno bosque
Un sitio muy escondido, para pasar una noche. Ibamos de paso, el bungalow es normal, pero aceptable, esta en pleno bosque, el camino algo malo, pero por la lluvia, las camas grandes, el despertar con muchas aves cantando, un buen desayuno que se paga allí, y seguimos la ruta.

Cafards
Invasion de cafards dès la nuit tombée. Heureusement nous avons pu avoir une autre chambre.

Bel endroit dans le parc du Rio Celeste !
Petite maisonnette individuelle dans la montagne. Les 2 grands lits sont confortables, la douche est chaude et spacieuse et il y a une baignoire à remous avec une belle vue sur la forêt. Le gérant répond très vite sur WhatsApp et les personnes qui gèrent sur place (de jeunes guides et leur "maître") sont vraiment adorables. Le petit déjeuner qui était compris et qu'on prend au restaurant en bas était vraiment très bon et copieux. Attention, le logement n'est accessible qu'en 4x4 mais vous avez de quoi garer une voiture en bas pour monter à pied, il est situé à El Piton, dans le parc du Rio Celeste et on ne capte rien sur place donc prenez vos précautions avant. Pour mes enfants et moi, une super endroit ! Je recommande
