The restaurant was very cute and has a wonderful meal with mulled wine. The chalet was extremely cozy too. There wasn't too much to explore on the grounds.

The individual chalets were adorable. The breakfast included was hardy and delish. They are also a restraunt and the dinner food was excellent. They are in a convenient location to get to La Paz waterfall gardens and Poas volcano. Used their laundry service that was wonderful. Everyone there was super friendly and helpful. I would def stay there again.

A beautiful location with views of the mountain valley. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Norman in particular was helpful and spent time talking to us about some of the costa Rican areas of interest including the local strawberry enterprise. I recommend the strawberry crepe.

The view from the property is very nice. The service is excellent. The breakfast included is very good. The cabins could use some maintenance and the beds are a bit stiff.

The best thing about this property was the people. Everyone was so gracious and pleasnt and helpful. You can tell they love what they do. Our chalet was perfect. They are small, but very comfortable. It was tucked back in a garden, which was fun to walk through . We would definitely go back to this lication.

Perfect all around!!

Amazing stay! We originally booked 2 nights because it was our first time visiting Costa Rica and didn't want to commit to more in one area, but we loved it so much that we decided to stay a 3rd night. Located close to many amazing waterfall hikes, the Poaz volcano, and the La Paz waterfall. Breakfast included was a huge plus, and their dinner menu and quality was excellent! Very nice cottage style home, amazing views, and an excellent staff. Highly recommend!
