Hidden Gem

The hotel is well tucked away, you have to drive uphill for quite a long stretch on a private road from the highway before you reach the buildings. This location allows for a nice, secluded stay on a beautiful property but also limits your options for your activities. There is a nice restaurant, a bar, a tour desk on the property, the hotel even has its own forest trail, the free guided tour was a nice experience. The rooms were clean, breakfast was good and we were very happy with the dinner service in the restaurant, too. There's plenty of wildlife on the hotel premises (racoon, coatis, birds) and plenty of volcano/rainforest related activities nearby. We'd definitely recommend and return!
