We only stayed one night, but this was the absolute perfect location. It is 10 minutes from the only Starbucks farm you can visit in the world (Hacienda Alsacia). It is 30 minutes from the airport, and the view of the city is magnificent. There’s a lovely walking trail (use bug spray) on the property, a nice bar and restaurant, and a pool. They’ll hand you an iced towel and a glass of iced tea upon arrival. The staff is excellent. Would highly recommend staying here!

Lovely tranquil setting not too far from the airport but away from the city bustle. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the staff kind and helpful. The property has a lovely garden with a small trail. The central areas and dining room feel slightly dated.

The hotel was close to airport and the transportation was convenient. It was small secluded hotel with a nice view towards the city. I love the walking areas and the sound of nature at night and in the early morning. Breakfast was delicious. The shower was spacious and water pressure good! Beds were comfortable. I would return to this hotel. Thank you.
