The solar powered Centro Turistico provides visitors and volunteers with a comfortable sanctuary in an inspirational natural setting. Our lodge sits at the entrance to Guatemala's newest protected area, the Seacacar Cañón Natural Reserve. Visitors enjoy spacious rooms, furnished common areas, a riverside restaurant, stunning views and immediate access to hiking trails, natural swimming pools and a traditional Q'eqchí Maya village. Most important, visitors help fund efforts to end extreme poverty and protect the Rio Sauce watershed. All proceeds go to Seacacar's Q'eqchi Mayan people. 

 

Lodging choices and approximate pricing are as follows: male and female dormitories ($10 bunk / Q75), double room with shared bath ($35 / Q250), single room with shared bath ($28 / Q200), double room with private bath ($42 / Q300), and single room with private bath ($36 /250). Extra persons in any room are $10 (Q75).  Keep in mind that we are completely off the grid and solar generated hot water is not available in all rooms. Our rooms with private bathrooms are in construction and will be ready by October 2017.
