At Alto del Águila you’ll find much more than just eagles. Fray Hector has created a tranquil retreat overlooking the Río Loretoyacü. The three cabañas are airy and comfortable. Watch the sunset from the tower, which you’ll have to share with two possessive macaws. Evenings are pleasurably spent on the back porch, conversing with Fray Hector. The brother is a most gracious host. If he’s full, he can arrange for you to stay at the Hermana Vicentinas’ cabañas at the Internado de San Francisco. A curfew of sorts exists, as the sisters let guard dogs loose at night.
