This place is amazing. The house sits along the river and at night you can hear the Toucan's talking and the gecko's rustling. You can take about a minute walk to the river and cool off. The house has a ton of environment friendly features like solar power and biofuel! The whole system is a science nerds dream. The hosts left a ton of information about the area in a little book. It was like a local to do list that covered everything from where to eat to bus schedules. Alma del Rio is a bit of a trek from town, so you may want to rent a car. If you don't rent a car, that's ok, the taxi and bus can take you to town, but beware...the buses stop at a certain time and the taxi prices can go up astronomically when the buses stop running. We didn't rent a car, but we befriended a taxi driver on our first day and got his phone number. We called him whenever we needed a ride. He was quick to get us, very friendly and very reasonable. Here's his number: Gonzalez Taxi Service, 501-668-2068. All in all, it was a great trip and a wonderful place to stay. I highly recommend staying here. 5-stars+!
