El Sabor de La Joya | Established Campground

April 1st, 2023 by roberta_otto

Camping here cost now 40000pp, the place is indeed very beautiful and clean, very nice bathrooms with good water pressure. Shame there is not much shade. The owners speak German and English, they make amazing dinners (you have to agree it in advance) for 150000pp (three course meal, amazing quality). They also make a Sunday buffer brunch for 75000pp which we loved. Definitely more expensive than other places in Paraguay but you pay for a very good quality. There's some nice walks you can take behind the property and the natural pool is really cool as well

I stayed longer than planned, it is such a magic place. You are in nature but have high standard facilities: a bathroom like at home, everything is clean, the food excellent. Please try not to arrive between 12:30 and 14:00( necessary siesta)and ring in advance( unlike me).The hosts are very interesting, kind and helpful. Highly recommended.

To get here, follow the signs and continue until you see the gate. We got lucky and someone saw us, so they came to open up, but otherwise you won't be able to get in. Contact in advance! Very friendly owners and hosts who will share so much about their farm and the Paraguayan culture. We paid 60,000 guaranis per night for 2 people + van. We found the perfect shady spot to park. Beautiful and peaceful place. Pools were full of clean, natural drinkable water. Clean bathrooms, hot shower with good pressure, plenty of space to set up for cooking or to hang out. Tables, hammocks, outdoor fire pit. WiFi available but very weak, comes in and out constantly; this place will make you want to disconnect anyway. We decided to try the 3-course meal for 100,000 guaranis per person (you must tell them in advance), which included salad, bread, water, main dish and dessert. There's alcoholic beverages as well. Everything fresh and organic and absolutely delicious, it was a treat for us. This place is worth a visit if you're in the area. They have a friendly medium-sized dog, Pepi, and other animals around their farm. Very quiet at night and perfect for recharging your batteries. Highly recommended!

So this is not just a camping, but a bit more complicated and much more interesting place.
Basically, it's a farm where this Swiss family lives and works. It worths noticing that they are really nice guys, and I was enjoying their company quite a lot every day. They speak German, English and Spanish.
So what this place has to offer? There are grassy area where you can camp, the price depends on the amount of people, I paid 30000 guaranís for just myself per night. There's a guest house where you can stay if you're looking for more comfort. A really good swimming pool with quite refreshing water. Sure thing, well-equiped bathroom as well. And quite a lot of space to walk around.
For me one the most interesting parts became the restaurant that also operates here. And while I have to admit that about $15 for a dinner is a bit more than I usually pay - at the end of the day this experience worthed every penny.
Overall that was one of the most interesting staying in all my travel around South America. What these guys are doing here definitely deserves some attention and appreciation.
Important! The main gate is closed quite often, so you better inform about your visit in advance. The phone is +595981236210

What a beautiful place to stay. We staid for 4 nights on the camping ground and enjoyed every second of it. There is not much shade on the camping ground but there is a huge nature pool in which you can cool down.

Maya, Urs and Noël are very good and helpful hosts. They are having a lot of land on which they grow a lot of fruits and vegetables, everything bio and to buy if you ask for. Providing a peaceful place without noise and stress is one of the high priorities of them.
In the evenings you can get a high standard 3 course meal. Everything fresh and most from there own Garden/farmland/animals. (Reservation 24h in advance required)
You pay 80’000 Guarani per night. Fresh drinking water from the tab and power is included. Very good facilities such as toilets and showers and a nice bbq place to have a nice chat in the evening.
Highly recommended place!!!

Maya, Urs and Noel are wonderful hosts. They sell lots of organic food and have a 3 course meal on weekends (we had homemade pizza, the best in South America; you need to make a reservation one day ahead). In dry weather you can stand on the lawn under trees, in rain there are parking opportunities on solid ground. The facilities are made with lots of love and absolutely clean (the shower is not only hot, but also with enough pressure). There is soon to be a bbq area. Electricity, wifi and interesting talks are included. We paid 50‘000 PYG per night (2 adults, 1 child). The place is perfectly situated among the triangle of 3 mountains and the salto suizo. You can also go for an extented stroll on their property. The gate to the compound is closed, call ahead (whatsapp: +595 (0) 981 236 210; they speak German, English, Spanish, French). Thanks for the lovely stay.

El Sabor de La Joya is setted in the wonderful area of the Ybitiruzu-Mountains in a quiet, peaceful and natural environment. We have a mixed establishment with an active, organic agriculture with fruits, vegetables and animals, a restaurant on weekends and a posada.
The right place to enjoy nature and to relax from travelling.
