Horseback riding Imagine
cantering through sugar cane plantations, fording thigh-deep rivers,
rounding up cattle and trotting through virgin rain forest on top
of a fine, well bred Paso Fino steed.
Rappelling there is two ways to get up to the rapelling
platform: One of our guide climb up for a rope helping the tourist
that is holding and seating in a chair.
Caño
Negro Small boats close to the water move silently
beneath the overhanging trees, coming up to the birds and monkeys
and lizards without disturbing them.
Our modern, clean, thoughtfully designed guest
bungalows have replaced the older main house rooms.
The river out front invites you outside, to meander
on the banks. Or stay inside, enjoying the flop-flop-flop
of the ceiling fans. Or, if you are inclined, turn off
the outdoors and turn on the air conditioning. The beds
are comfortable, the hammock on the individual verandas
are suspended so you can recline and still watch the
river for wildlife. Go to sleep at night with the sounds
of frogs on the Platanar River running behind the bungalows.
Our
spacious guest bungalows reflect the ambiance
of a former era, when all the "best"
homes had smooth, shining hardwood floors, wood-lined
interiors and high ceilings, huge showers and
simple but comfortable furnishings.
