Río Silanche Bird Sanctuary Tours

Located at the Northeast end of the villiage of Mompiche, only a 2-3 minute walk to the bustling, yet small center. The hotel is gated and ample parking is available inside the gates. I was greeted by Jose, one of the property managers who was very friendly. Upon checking in, he asked me what I wanted for breakfast the next day and when I wanted it (breakfast was included in my reservation). The next morning I was greeted by Jose and his boss, Freddie, who had breakfast ready for me at the small dining area next to the pool (which was quite nice). I chatted with Freddie and shared my plans to visit Isla Portete and Playa Negra which are about a 45min walk from the hotel. Freddie kindly offered to arrange a moto taxi for me, but ended up driving me in his personal car to the boat launch to Portete! Overall, my stay was very pleasant, mainly due to the friendly, kind, and informative staff at Bernabeth.

The good was of a very good standard generally. The pools are nice, access to the island is great. Could do with some signage up to inform why access to the beach across the front of the resort is not accessible.
