In a corner of the colombian llanos, on the banks of the Cravo Sur River in the municipality of Orocué, emerges an unforgettable place composed of beautiful and traditional palm houses (bungalows), with the greatest comfort and luxury found in the llanos: excellent accommodation and service, gourmet food and nature observation tours through beautiful wooded trails, which complement the experience of exploring its rivers by boat in the best way.
The contact with the natural environment can be done on foot or on horseback through its savannas, forests and beaches (the latter in the dry season).
