We found this beautiful property and it was above and beyond our expectations. It was absolutely stunning. From the charming unique rooms, the stunning views, colorful plants/flowers, amazing dining food/drinks. Rooms were quiet, clean and very comfortable. We were on the 1st floor so we didn't get a view of the sunset but we were just as happy to be able to walk out of our patio and visit the pool/sitting area and go to breakfast and dinner at the restaurant onsite. We will definitely be back!

Property nice and quaint / needs up dating and the grounds could be kept better. Great for relaxing. Excursions are overpriced when booking at hotel. Suggest booking directly for excursions. Beware of the water drought, we woke up one morning to drizzle water usage with no notice from staff

I liked its unique boutique style. I appreciated the balcony but the balcony doors do not block out much sound and doors from another room were rattling all night. Fortunately I slept with earplugs, otherwise it would’ve been a problem.
