Beautiful Sanctuary in the Jungle

Me and my fiancé had an amazing 5 nights at the Dream Catcher Eco lodge. Liesel was one of the kindest, welcoming and generous hosts we’ve ever experienced. The fact that she’s a chef made the whole experience even more special and memorable as she created some exceptionally crafted and gourmet vegan meals for us. The private cabins are beautiful, with stunning views of the river and total privacy. They’ve been decorating very elegantly and the bedding was super comfortable. There was easy access to either the yacht club or small town of Rio Dulce if you wanted to venture or do some shopping. There are also kayaks available at the lodge to explore around the river and spot some of the incredible wildlife. Falling asleep and waking up to the Howler Monkeys was definitely a highlight of our whole trip. And if you’re lucky enough to be there on a clear night, you won’t have any shortage or stars to look at. This was by far one of the most special and memorable weeks of traveling. We are so grateful to Liesel and her beautiful staff who made us feel welcomed and at home throughout our stay. A trip you definitely won’t regret.

Amazing Staff!

Superb hostel made even more excellent by the staff. My husband was unfortunately ill while staying here but staff were incredible in making sure he was ok, especially Maritza. They went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and Lisele was great in helping us organise our transfer to our next destination. We appreciate this a lot. This place has a beautiful location with excellent facilities. We stayed in the jungle lodge with private en-suite. This room was big and had great AC and a filtered water dispenser! Highly recommend - 10/10

Amazing vibes and tropical paradise

Great spot! Delicious food, amazing staff, and pet friendly! The room Jaguar is really beautiful and very clean. Tried all the tuna dishes and still don’t know which I liked better. Definitely a must when in Rio dulce, Izabal!

Paraíso de placeres

Dreamcatcher es un lugar soñado. Además de su belleza natural, pues está en plena selva Guatemalteca, es de un gusto por el disfrute verdaderamente exquisito. Liesel, su anfitriona, es una chef profesional, super dedicada y especializada en brindar el mejor de los servicios. Su comida es deliciosa! El staff de chicas que trabajan es maravilloso también, muy buen servicio y atención muy cálida. Y sobre todo, hermosa energía, te sientes siempre bienvenida/o. Es ideal para descansar, y también para conectar con la naturaleza, y para vivir una experiencia de relax y puro placer en el río dulce. Recomendadísimo!

SO beautiful, setting and design both!

The owner Liesel is obviously an artist because this place is a work of art. It has a unique combination of sleeping arrangements that are set around outdoor living rooms. All arranged in a tranquil tucked away spot up a small creek from the river. And the food is amazing - homemade pasta and an appetizer plate that was so lovely. All the food was beautifully presented and yummy. And before hand a wonderful selection of margaritas, martinis and other drinks, Great coffee too. We'll be back many times.
