We loved our stay here. Gigi and the team looked after us really well. Nothing was too much to ask for. Great food available at the restaurant, the kids loved the pools and some good mountain bike tracks. Accommodations were very comfortable. Will definitely stay again.

10/10 Exceptional

The only problem was in the beginning with booking when I booked a smaller room and they gave me problems exchanging it for a larger one as it was some special deal. Should have been done without issues as I was going to pay more for a larger room. Other than that our stay was flawless. Very comfortable large 2 bedroom casistas great for families, kitchen, outdoor sink to wash off the mud, very comfortable. The view from the pool deck was amazing, very pleasant staff, great food, enough vegan options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some bikes for rental needed work so check make sure all is in working order. Three swimming pools including a baby pool. Would definitely return.

Nice place, great views over Orotina. Minor criticism: the kitchenette area should have an electric grill or something for cooking.

Extraordinary
Be ready for rough a ride up the hill and nothing around...but once you get there it's paradise. Perfect place to unwind far from city noise. (And no barking dogs!) Dani is a gem, speaks fluent English and super professional. We had a wonderful dinner and a great breakfast facing the mountains. You can even see the ocean. The little villas are rustic and super comfortable. I want to go back!

Tranquility and overall ambiance was beyond expectations, convenient yet minimalist! Host Danny’s helpfulness was way above par. Would certainly love to come back with family.

4/10 Fair

Look elsewhere.
Look elsewhere. The staff is friendly when you can find them. We stayed in a 2 bedroom casita, beds were full of bugs, not alive but just not what we expected. Bathroom was outdated and not clean, no ac and in San Mateo late march you need it. Was hard to sleep. The beds are very uncomfortable. No entertainment in casita. Three pools that were run down and outdated. Breakfast is free but very limited. Would not stay again.

Buena opción si buscan un lugar completamente en silencio, tienen hora de silencio a las 8:00pm y no dejan salir despues de esa hora, no es buena opción si busca pegarse una fiestilla, oas cabañas no tienen cocina eléctrica ni de gas para cocinar.

Lugar bonito pero la atención no tanto.
A la hora de llegada el check in nos indicaron que era a las 3pm y no como decía en la app a partir del medio día. El desayuno fueron solo unas frutas.
