This is a beautiful resort that is a bit far from town but very lovely and quiet. They have wonderful staff that are happy to help you. There are events to that you can do while on the property- I did a horseback ride to the "top of the world" with my kids. It was wonderful, and we saw 2 waterfalls as well. The resort has a nice trail where you can see a fumerole- steam and hot water coming from the ground- and bubbling mud too. There is ziplining and plenty of food choices at the restaurant. They all spoke English and were so kind to my family. I didn't try the spa but I'm sure it's top notch too.

Loved the property. Each bungalow was completely separate from the others on a hill, so there was no noise at night (except the howler monkeys). Very peaceful and the pool, hot springs, sauna and hiking trail were easy to access.

2 kids and 2 adults- this property is amazing. Food is good, ambiance is amazing and the people are even better. Sure food options are more limited than an all inclusive but you’re 1.5 hours aways from any city and we never went hungry. The people are amazing and the property is beautiful- would absolutely stay here again.

The resort is peaceful and clean. Most staff was friendly. We only had one unpleasant experience. On Tuesday, the twelfth. I think his name was Eric. My husband stayed he spoke to him rudely. I loved Jose Maria and Genesis! They are genuinely kind and friendly. I would love to go back, however, the road leading to the resort is very rough! You almost need a 4 x 4. It’s a dirt road and lots of curves and narrow! I can not imagine it when it rains. I also noticed some small worms in the room. I didn’t mind it since the resort is out in nature. I think they were harmless. The pool is very beautiful and so is the dining area.

The resort was absolutely gorgeous, and we would stay there again. The staff were friendly. Our only complaint was that the food wasn’t very good, and leaving the resort to eat is not the easiest given its location up in the mountains. I got a steak on our first night there that was not cheap and it was so hard and fatty I couldn’t eat it. I let them know, and there was no offer made of another protein, or even consideration to take it off the bill. Go here for the experience and the relaxation, because it is beautiful in so many ways. My wife and I aren’t big eaters so the food not being great wasn’t a deal breaker for us.
