Beautiful place, very quiet, kind employees, very good room service. Breakfast is from 7:00 to 9:00. There is a botanical trail behind the hotel until 18:00, gorgeous but could be slippery if it rains because it's steep. Another recommendation, there is nothing around but a road, so try to buy things you need before going, for example water.

At the side of the main road, so easy to get there. Room are quite and Cody and you can enjoy a swimming pool, jacuzzi with a pretty good social area. Just feels it as being a guess in a little club.

We did not stay at the hotel but just had lunch here. Food was very reasonably priced, was delicious but for us the real treat was the birds. They have gardens that are part of the hotel and there are wonderful hummingbirds plus other birds that are almost right next to the tables. This one would definitely get a thumbs up from me.
