Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful! The rooms were filled with wonderful beds and crisp white sheets, with a predominance of wood materials throughout. We had a very large bathroom and a lounge area on ground level, which was perfect for our group's one night and one morning getaway. The service was exceptional; the staff knew it was our honeymoon and made extra efforts to make it even more special for us. The location was just beautiful, with much to explore and a serene atmosphere, though it felt like it's in the middle of nowhere. The dining was absolutely delicious, especially the yogurt made on the premises and the dulce de leche. Overall, a fantastic experience!
