Our main objective is to provide accommodation, recreation and gastronomy services to the people in Cuban currency (CUP and CUC), as well as offering a healthy recreation. We are taking into account future plans and projects to continue improving the construction conditions of the facility to increase the comfort of the cabins.

The facility is located on Carretera Autopista, Km 50 ½, Artemisa. On the north side adjoins Cayajabo town, on the EAST the farm of a peasant, which is divided by the river used by customers. The river flows under a highway bridge; to the SOUTH another town similar to Cayajabo.

This is a facility of great acceptance by people. It has dense vegetation and it is built from “Sandino System” masonry walls and gutter-tile roof, and aluminum carpentry.  It has an approximate area of 5300m2. There are 45 cabins distributed, according to their capacity, in the following way: 3 of two, 35 of four, and 7 of six people, for a total capacity of 188 campers. Only 32 cabins are currently used and they are distributed as follows: 3 of two people, 24 of four people and 5 of six people, for a total of 132 capacities in the facility.

Our animation is mainly based on traditional Cuban music and folklore with peasant roots. We have the participation of artistic values ??from the area and there are different options for enjoying direct contact with nature. You can also enjoy the seasoning and traditional Cuban dishes: moro-rice, fresh vegetables, tubers, fruits, natural juices, grilled meats, and Cuban dessert. These dishes can be enjoyed in the restaurant and in the grill on the river banks.

Offered services:

All the services provided in our facility are offered by qualified personnel for these affairs. We must consider that the quality of human resources also constitutes an important bulwark for the installation. This is due to their peasant ancestry and their high value of sense of belonging; they are able to transmit not only quiet, but good treatment as well. They do an excellent job in fulfilling the expectations of customers. Our clients can enjoy a cheerful and responsible workforce, something that is highly valued by those who come to visit us.
