La casa está bien en cuanto a equipamiento y ubicación pero descuidada la limpieza, interior de los armarios sucios y restos de comida en mal estado en el microondas.

Ein sehr großes Haus mit einer tollen Holzterrasse direkt über dem Fluss. Man konnte sehr schön draußen sitzen und die Atmosphäre genießen. Wasserkanister mit Trinkwasser und Kaffee standen uns zur Verfügung. Die Sauberkeit müsste verbessert werden.

Castillo may be the best destination for visitors in the country. We have visted more than 10 times. Lots of bush walks and interesting critters to see. And the community is very welcoming. The fact that there are no vehicles and the town is only accessible by boat leads to a greater interconnection between neighbours. Its als an entrepreneurial community. There are almost no jobs so people all find a product or service they can offer. Doris's house is right on the water and very central. We were a family of 6 staying there and were comfortable. I would like to give it 5 stars, but there are water and electrical issues with the house... much as there are with most old houses... and we were left in the dark and without water a few times. BUT... despite the drawbacks I think it is a good option if you don't want to stay in a hotel.

Great location, fast communication. There was an issue with (a lot of) birds on the balcony every night from sunset, so we had to clean the balcony every morning if we wanted to use it. The host is working on a solution.

We really enjoyed our stay here. We were hesitant at first because it was more expensove than thw other options in town but it was definitely worth it. It is actually much nicer than the photos indicate. Really unique wooden house built on stilts directly on the river. We spent so much time just sitting on the rocking chairs on the deck watching the boats, birds , rapids and people watching on the neigboring houses. Twice some scarlet macaws fly across the river. The birds love to sit on logs and wait for fish. We stayed 4 nights but could have stayed longer it was so peaceful. There are virtually no mosquitos because the house is near the rapids. The kitchen was fully equipped so we cooked all of our meals. You can see t castillo from he kitchen window. The house is huge. We were only 2 but an entire family could comdortably stay here. Very clean and nice bathroom. A big 5 gallon garrafon of water was included which was awesome. Doris responded almost immediately to all our enquiries . Thanks Doris!
