Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Rio Selva

Coroico, La Paz, Bolivia

This is probably the most popular hotel in the Yungas, and it can get very busy as a result. Go during the week to unwind and do very little except listen to the river, slide down a tube into a pool or two, and slap bugs. At this resort-style property, you can choose from a wide range of room types including cabañas, apartments, studios, and standard rooms. The property spans three acres with such offerings as racquetball courts, a movie theater, soccer field, and game room. There is even an on-site chapel where mass is held. Of the eleven swimming pools, several double as aqua-discos with music blaring throughout the day. This resort is a great place to practice your Spanish since the clientele and staff are predominately Bolivians. All meals are included and are buffet style.
