Running since 1960, they bill themselves as the country's first rural hotel, and Olimpia came back for pre-season more than once: the house keeps photographs from 1982 and 1988, and a piece in Leyendas magazine ties a Centu Cué pre-season to the year the club won its first Libertadores. Service in Spanish and Guaraní.

Boat hire with a local guide around Villa Florida, on the Tebicuary River. An aluminium boat with a 15 HP outboard, for five people including the guide. They set off from Centú Cué or from under the bridge and go as far up the river as the angler wants: staying close or pushing on as far as possible is his call. The day runs from 7:00 to 17:00. The boat on its own costs Gs. 350,000 a day and the guide Gs. 200,000, so Gs. 550,000 for the day with a guide; fuel and oil are paid by the client, though they will also quote an all-in price. Besides fishing they run river trips. Ask for Cristhian Benítez.
