It was a great place to stay, with the benefit of a mountain location and easy access to town by taking a shortcut on the property. Note that it is a good uphill hike back from town. A taxi or tuk-tuk may be a better idea coming back at night. Our room was next to the parking lot and was noisy as trucks and cars came in and out. It was the building right beside the main building. They have more secluded units that I would encourage you to get. I recommend this place.

A real pleasure! Stayed there for one night with my 12 year old son before embarking in an MTB 107 km ride. Couldn’t have made a better choice; Kawa was the perfect beginning. The place, even though not in the centre of town still is walkable through a beautiful path 10 min. Had a cabin with a spectacular view of the canyon. One of the nicest bathroom I have ever encountered. Dinner was an absolute delight. Presentation, quality, innovation and all the details that make a meal a perfect experience. Luis, the hotel manager took care of us in ways that go beyond going out of one’s way. I had the best time with my son but it is obviously the perfect couples getaway.

Camilo

Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall, our stay was passable, but there are numerous areas that require substantial improvement. Frankly, given the cleanliness issues and the worn-out condition of the towels and sheets, I find it difficult to justify the hotel's price. Starting with the positives: the location was peaceful and offered stunning views, with a convenient path to the town. The breakfast was a highlight, combining a buffet selection with made-to-order main dishes, which I would rate 10/10. Now, addressing the negatives: We stayed for just one night during peak season, from Saturday to Sunday. The jacuzzi was covered in algae. While I understand the intention to reduce chemical use, this neglect led to an unacceptable level of cleanliness. The towels and bed sheets were visibly aged and hadn't been changed recently. In conclusion, despite some positive aspects of our stay, such as the tranquil location and excellent breakfast, the pervasive cleanliness issues and worn-out amenities make it hard to recommend this hotel, especially considering its current pricing.

Will definitely go back to Kawa hotel for sure! We found such a pity that we couldn’t spend decent time at the hotel due to our intensive schedule, so will try to arrange for more time chilling there next time. Breakfast and view from the room are both perfect, but the service was what amazed us the most! Very helpful and responsive reception that we didn’t need to worry about anything. Shuttle service worked out smoothly as well!
