Belén de Umbría accommodation from NZ$159

For any nature lover looking for an unforgettable adventure, the Hacienda Boutique Santa Rosanna in Santa Rosa de Cabal is the perfect place. It's more than a stay; it's an opportunity to become part of a living coffee hacienda, and Alexandra and her staff truly make this place magic. Waking up each morning to the aroma of the best, pure coffee is an incredible way to start the day, followed by a delicious and authentic breakfast. The living coffee tour is an experience you'll never forget, offering a genuine glimpse into the coffee-making process. The hacienda is nestled high in the mountains, and the scenery is simply breathtaking. You're surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty, from the vibrant birds and butterflies to the gentle presence of cows and horses. This is truly a magical place for a peaceful and immersive escape.

We (group of 4) were delighted by this beautiful hotel. It is set on a mountainside surrounded with fruit and coffee plantation. Our rooms were clean and bright, with modern ensuite bathrooms. We enjoyed our meals in the dining area, with fabulous view over the valley and distant hills. The swimming pool and hot tub were clean and lovely. Best of all - the staff are wonderful, helpful, cheerful, friendly and so patient with us travellers. Only one challenge: the road up to the hotel is in poor condition, and needs a truck, Jeep or similar high-clearance vehicle. But it's worth it! Our only recommendation is to fix the road, and our profuse thanks are to the staff for helping us with travel arrangements!
