    stunning trails
    family bonding
    ancient culture
    kid-friendly options

    We had a wonderful experience enjoying the cool mountain air with my niece. The owner guided us through stunning forest trails, pointing out fascinating plants and wildlife. We even made time to visit the nearby Guayabo monument, which offered a glimpse into an ancient culture. Perfect family bonding!

    My children wished for more kid-friendly options on the menu.

    fine gardens
    very nice views

    Highly recommend it for nature lovers

    The grounds were fine, the vibrant gardens and very nice views made every moment worth it. One breakfast, they even packed our food to-go since we had to leave early, which was a nice touch.

    It wasn’t cheap, but you certainly get what you pay for.

    polyester covers

    The polyester-looking bed covers didn't do it for me. I'd prefer something more washable and breathable. The room layout felt a bit outdated, making it less cozy than it could be, but the bed itself was surprisingly comfortable, despite the flat pillows. Also, the communal dining area could benefit from a bit more accessibility, especially for those with limited mobility.

    vibrant painting
    dining accessibility
    menu options

    The charming gardens were like a vibrant painting, full of exotic flowers and delightful birds. I felt embraced by nature's beauty. The paths were friendly enough for seniors, making wandering through this paradise a true joy.

    Improved accessibility for dining areas would be helpful.

    great view
    delightful meals
    unreliable internet
    remote location
    limited amenities

    Spacious and clean quadruple room offered a beautiful view over the mountains, and meals were delightful. The owner personally catered dinner and breakfast, which included fresh eggs and cake. While the internet connection was unreliable, the accommodating staff ensured we had a pleasant stay by providing take-out breakfast on an early morning. The captivating gardens added to the serene ambiance, attracting various birds and butterflies.

    charming garden
    dining accessibility

    pleasant stay but minor improvements needed

    The spacious quadruple room offered a stunning mountain view that took my breath away each morning. The host quickly prepared a delicious improvised dinner that showcased local flavors. Breakfast was also exceptional, with fresh fruit, local cheese, and perfectly cooked eggs. The charming garden with vibrant flowers added a lovely touch to the overall experience.

    The paths to the dining areas could be improved for better accessibility.

    We had an awesome time! The views were breathtaking, especially in the morning. Our room was clean and super spacious, just like home. Breakfast was delish, with fresh fruit and local cheese. The picnic area was a nice touch too! Just wish there were more dinner options available.
