Such a great experience! The rooms are quite small, but it gave the exact rainforest stay vibes I was looking for! The breakfast room was a great bonus - it even had bug spray and sunscreen! The grounds were clean. We loved looking for coqui frogs at night! Absolutely recommend!!

Grounds were beautiful. Guests should know this is an extremely small room. Too small for our taste. If you have more than one suit case you will be cramped. Room was humid, muggy, and musty. Ac helped but has too get real cold to get moisture out of air. Breakfast is limited too fruit, toast, and waffles.
I love this stay overall !! The place was very peaceful and private

Hotels.com took us to wrong address in dangerous area. Room entry code didn't work. Had to call the service twice. Unmanned facility. Tiny rooms, tiny shower. Property gate didn't always close. Noisy because rooms are so tightly packed together.
Gorgeous gated property with enough and easy parking. Room was perfect and the balcony was cute. Very peaceful and scenic location, with a pool, hammocks, seating area and a great breakfast room that is open all day.
We believe it would benefit you to have a little variety for your breakfast. Would also suggest you have a small shelf area in the breakfast room where you put towels so people can swap them out every few days. The shower in Unit six has water coming out of the drain so it doesn't all come out the shower head. The water was never very hot but it was warm. Even with these issues we would stay there again because the staff was so nice.
What a wonderful relaxing place to stay! Clean, fresh smelling room, bed was comfortable! Management were quick to reply to requests and very accommodating and kind! Continental breakfast was so convenient, water bottles, fruit, cheese, small snacks, coffee was delicious! Location was ideal close to everything, but tucked into the side of a mountain! Views were spectacular!! Will be back for sure!!

The room is tiny like very small the host was not friendly at all she is borderline rude.We had to ask for pillows and covers the first two night I did not get any sleep, when taking a shower the water gets all over the place I spen a lot of time booths flor. The only positive part is that the yard is pretty nice .
I highly recommend staying at this place if you would like to submerge yourself in the sounds of the jungle! The bedroom I rented was petite, but was efficiently built and thought out to make the most out of the space. It had a balcony with a gorgeous view of the forest. The bed was comfortable and the room had a mini fridge.
The pool and lounging areas were neat and comfortable.
The breakfast room featured a self-serve breakfast and snacks throughout the day, which was convenient, but if you are looking for a nutritious and delicious breakfast you will need to eat out.
The staff was prompt with their responses when I contacted them through WhatsApp. Even their welcome message thoroughly had all the information we needed to access the property.
The room was in great condition and it is good if you just plan on sleeping and showering there. It was smaller than expected. When you walk in it’s just a bed in the middle of the room and a bathroom to the left. Super small shower. The breakfast was just crackers and peanut butter jelly sandwiches. Didn’t even use the pool, felt a little deceived by the advertisement. Overall it was a peaceful experience and great if you don’t plan on using the amenities.
