Description
This site is away from the weekend traffic at the Mesa de Los Santos. There is no height restriction, any vehicle will fit. The parking/camping area is a large meadow slanting south; rigs will need to be leveled. For campers, there is a basic bathroom and cold shower (plastic pipe). The water gets warm in the afternoon when the sun shines on the black tanks.
There also is a 4-burner stove, which works well, and a dish washing sink. A clothes washing sink and a washing machine are at Esther’s house.
There are two glamping huts, and Esther also rents two rooms; the rooms and the glamping share one bathroom accessible from the outside. Wifi reaches about a third of the way across the meadow.
We were there August and September, and it usually was quiet, also on weekends; sometimes, there is a neighbor who plays music too loudly for a few hours but not late at night. While we were there, no tent campers showed up, but people came to rent the glamping cabins; they all were quiet.
The last two kilometers to the site can be a bit bumpy, but locals drive it in small cars. There is a nice walk, also about 2 km, down to the village of Los Santos.
Esther is usually there, but it may be best to call/WhatsApp ahead.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Stayed here for two nights, place as described. Electricity available at the bathroom/ kitchen hut. Were able to refill our water tank. Price is now 20‘000 pppn, which imo is high for what you get. Esther and also the other family members are not very communicative but friendly enough.
Report Check-InA convenient spot to camp for the night. We camped in our tent, for 15,000pp. Good kitchen area, large fridge and working stove, outlets etc. Had the place to ourselves. Quiet at night, Esther wasn’t there but her son or family member checked us in and was friendly enough
Report Check-Invery calm and quiet site. the entrance from "los santos" is only for 4x4... but the main entrance is ok for all vehicles.
