Un Paraíso, muy buen lugar para disfrutar de la naturaleza. A paradise on Earth, very good place to relax and enjoy nature. La comida es súper buena y lo más importante no es procesada con aditivos extra. Todo es natural.

Después de muuuchos años pudimos regresar a este lugar eco turístico familiar. Nos fue muy grato ver cómo lo ha mantenido en esencia haciéndolo más confortable y práctico. Puedes encontrar cábalas familiares o pequeñas. Las vistas son espectaculares y las actividades xomo kayak y Padel son maravillosas ya que puedes recorrer los manglares a este lugar accedes en lancha. Hay un restaurante y las personas son muy amables.

Es un lugar super tranquilo y relajante, está muy bien integrado con la naturaleza y tiene muchas atracciones. Puedes hacer senderismo, ir en kayak o puedes nadar en la laguna. Para llegar debes tomar una lancha desde la playa o en el embarcadero de los duendes. El personal es súper amable y las instalaciones están muy cuidadas. Es un lugar increíble y altamente recomendable.

Un lugar hermoso si quieres tener contacto con la naturaleza, las personas son muy agradables y te hacen sentir como en casa, la comida que preparan es deliciosa y autosustentable, la cabaña en que estuvimos muy cómoda, la vista es increíble, voy a volver definitivamente

Great place on the edge of the jungle. The organic food and especially the strawberry margaritas are extremely delicious! If you seek a hideout from the busyness of the surrounding cities it is the place to go! The owner and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Me and my friend spent two days there and enjoyed the time very much. Thanks a lot, see you next time!

Los Amigos is one of the best places in Las Tuxtlas. The cabins were so gorgeous. The location on the river between the beach and mountains is magical. We passed the days doing yoga, swimming, kayaking, and walking around the grounds. At night we listened to the howler monkeys, birds, rain on the roof, and nearby waves. The food was amazing. The sunsets were spectacular. The hosts were so accommodating and welcoming. Absolutely magical!
