Casa Sophia is a gem in the heart of the Cayo district. The house is comfortable, beautifully constructed and in a good location for jungle adventure. An SUV is perfect to get around and navigate rustic roads. Our host Sandra was warm, inviting, and welcoming our entire stay. She made us feel comfortable and wanting to stay longer.
We stayed in September which is less frequented by visitors so we had several locations all to ourselves which felt special. The rains made the dirt roads muddy and more challenging so staying indoors till the sun came out was a good idea.
Some uncontrollable and disappointing points were the current construction on the main road during the day which made it hard to relax, normal road traffic due to the house being located off the road, neighboring dogs that bark on and off through the night.
Besides the unfortunate, we enjoyed our time and the people we met. We would recommend Casa Sophia and stay again. The best features of this house are the shower, the screened in porch and kitchen and the jungle and river music.
