Property is spectacular with the most amazing views! The on site restaurant serves local farm to table food that is delicious! The rooms are a little small and run down but we didn’t spend much time in them other than to sleep. Lots of beautiful trails to explore and the night hike is recommended! Overall a fantastic experience if you are good with a rustic room and a few bugs!

The hotel is gorgeous with a spectacular view of the mountains. The property has lots of scenic trails with lookout points. The staff is kind and everything is very clean. The hotel and restaurant are very eco-friendly, and fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs can be seen growing on the property using sustainable resources. Our family really enjoyed the night tour with our guide Eduardo, who was funny, making it all the more fun. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. The food was fresh and delicious, especially their red fruit pie!

This is a beautiful property. The room was comfortable (super hot water in the shower!) and the breakfast was good (try the banana bread!). There are hiking trails on the property. We saw monkeys and a variety of birds. Warning: don't show your teeth to the monkeys and keep your distance. They can be quite aggressive. One other note: don't leave any food out in your room. We made that mistake and attracted tons of sugar ants.

The property is set in a beautiful location. The restaurant on the property was good, but it took a while for the food to arrive. Our biggest complaint for the property was that when we went to the bed, we found our bed towards the foot to be wet, and had a musty smell. It seems there might have been some leak in the room. By the time we realized the bed was wet, the office had already closed, so we couldn’t get help. We wanted to love the property because it is set in a beautiful location and we loved the idea of farm to table meal. Also, the night walk was great. Unfortunately, the wet bed and musty smelling towels in the bathroom makes it unlikely that we would return.
