GOOD||* Zoraida is most warm-hearted and welcoming, she is taking great care of her guests.|* The property is beautifully maintained, the view from Eware‘s own mirador is breathtaking especially during dawn and dusk.|* Rooms are spacious and clean.|* Zoraida will organise any tour you like (even on short notice) and gives great suggestions, alterations are possible „on-the-go“.|* Avelino is a fantastic tour guide, who knows the jungle inside and out, takes great care of his group and makes it known that it is his responsibility to keep you safe. Doing the caiman tour with him in the evening is an absolute MUST, the lights and atmosphere are unparalleled.||Make sure to bring sufficient cash (you should budget approx. 200k COP all-in per person per day). At least if you want to take advantage of the many great tours you can do starting from Eware Refugio.

Read moreThis was definitely our favorite place that we stayed at during our trip to Colombia. The family that owns this place was so welcoming and friendly. Even though my boyfriend and I did not speak Spanish, they were still so warm to us and accommodating. It sort of felt like a homestay but you still got privacy and space! The food that the woman (I feel so horrible for not remembering her name because she was so lovely!) cooked was our favorite that we had during our trip! The property itself is absolutely stunning that is right on the amazon river and the property has dogs, cats, chickens, rooster, and a turkey! We booked a couple tours through them and loved them and also got to meet the local people that way! Keep in mind that since this place is a bit off the grid, there is no wifi and a couple times the electricity shut off but we did not mind, it felt like a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of Leticia. I wish I could've expressed how much I appreciated their hospitality, I truly would recommend this place to anyone. Thank you for a wonderful stay! - Sarah and...
