Kau Tapen and Villa Maria Lodges are both run to exacting standards that sets the bar for others to follow. They offer some of the best fishing for sea trout on the middle and lower Rio Grande. If you are looking for superb food, service and standard of accommodation to compliment your fishing stay then these lodges take some beating. They have been around for many years and are highly sought after. Space is going to be highly sought after due to the large number of roll over bookings from this year.

Kau Tapen

One of the oldest and probably the most modern / highest standard lodge on the entire river. A superb lodge that has access to both the Rio Grande and Menendez rivers. The fishing at Kau Tapen has been described as the finest fly fishing for sea trout in the world. It has access to 16 km of the Rio Grande, and the sea trout average 12 lbs in size and can be as much as 30+ lbs. The lodge has access for fly fishing on both banks of the Rio Grande, and the river offers easy wading to the fly fishermen on fine gravel.
