Our accommodations are modest; for individuals, families and groups. Each has a screened porch or veranda, from which you view the amazing mountains of Santa Barbara, second highest mountain of Honduras, La Isla Venado, the birth place of humanity, according to Lenca legend, our waterfront/swimming area, and hundreds of different species of birds. All our rooms have great views of the lake, private bath with hot water. We have rooms with air-conditioning, dorms and family suites.

Our restaurant has become known as the best on the lake, offering hygienic food and national and international cuisine.

Around El Cortijo we have well maintained walking trails. Weather you want a quiet walk through a wooded lot or a lakeside stroll to watch birds or a longer hike to visit a near-by pineapple plantation or a small lakeside village.

We give tours around the lake to view birds, or just enjoy the lake. We also have boats that can be used for rowing or fishing for rent.

Tours to nearby cloud forests, waterfalls, caves and hot springs can be arranged.

Our specialty is hosting mission and cultural exploration groups. Special programs can be arranged to meet your groups interests.
