Pros:

We stayed at Mariposa Villa and truly enjoyed our time there. The villa layout is spacious and thoughtfully designed, offering both comfort and privacy. One of the highlights was the private jacuzzi tucked behind the house — perfect for unwinding while surrounded by nature. We also loved the personal trail that leads down to a secluded deck with chaise lounges overlooking the river — a serene spot to relax and take in the sounds of the forest.

The food was simple but consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and well-prepared meals that complemented the natural setting.

However, there are a few things to be aware of. The large glass door between the living room and the patio deck has significant gaps, making it impossible to leave the living room light on at night without attracting a swarm of insects. It would be helpful if the property addressed this with better sealing or screens. Also, while the natural “pool” is mentioned as an amenity, it’s essentially just part of the river with no enhancements — more for wading than swimming.

Communication with the property can be challenging. Their listed Google phone number doesn’t work, and it was often difficult to get in touch with staff when needed.

Overall, it’s a beautiful and tranquil place with unique natural features, but some improvements in communication and infrastructure would go a long way.

Everything was excellent, but getting there was a problem the road to the property is an off-road so you will need something strong to get out there other than that everything was good

Pros:

This hotel absolutely blew our minds. The 30 minute drive off road was very beautiful and at first made us a little nervous but quickly realized with 4 wheel drive its very easy and fun! Once we got there... We were blown away. The staff. The rooms. The food. THE PRICE. 10/10. The natural pool area to me might be one of the most beautiful places I've ever been in my entire life and literally put tears in our eyes. The amount of hiking, exploring, and outdoor activities could fill an entire week. There are only 5 rooms so you feel like the entire property is yours and the staff knew our names only after 2 days. I will forever be amazed with this place and am even looking at building a villa there. GO THERE. Before the secret is out.

Pros:

Service and premises are excelente this is such a beautiful quiet and magical place. Nevertheless there is an improvement possibility in the dinning the food takes a lot to be served and the taste and quality is not adequate to prices. Additionally on NYE they had fireworks which I consider is not consequent to the ecological experience. I was concerned about all the animal in their surroundings suffering for this

This property is amazing. The staff are super friendly and everyone knows your name. If you are looking for a quiet nature filled get away, look no further. My fiancé and I did the scenic horseback riding and hiking excursion and the jungle couples massage. 10 out of 10 all the way.

Pros:

Perfect honeymoon property. This property is a hidden gem. Found it last minute and was extremely delightful with the spacious private bungalow, fireplace, hammock, outdoor shower and overall creative architectural design nestled in the rainforest and surrounded by farms. The fresh farm to table breakfast was rich in flavor and the service was attentive without being overbearing. The only con would be no cell phone service and limited wifi connectivity.

Pros:

The perfect romantic getaway. The small staff here is so attentive and wonderful. We enjoyed several days at the resort exploring the natural pools and nearby waterfalls or animal sanctuaries at staff recommendation. Our mountain suite had the most breathtaking views, and aside from a few issues with wasps, our room was very well maintained. Staff were quick to respond to requests.

The best offerings here, aside from the large property and natural hikes and pools, are the restaurant and experiences. Our horseback ride hike was an incredibly fun memory, and we wish we were able to explore more. Their farm showed off their beautiful rescue horses and animals like goats, cats, chickens, and hogs. Staff are eager to share more about them to animal lovers like me! We had the most incredible meals - never disappointed by the kitchen. The pineapple risotto, breakfast tortillas and pancakes, and chocolate sponge cake are all musts.

The quiet resort offers beautiful trails and a home away from home. We will be returning if not buying property in their villa community.

Pros:

Firstly make sure you have a good off road vehicle to get you there as it’s quite far on unpaved roads….but my god it’s worth it when you arrive .Location is fantastic, chalets were lovely with privacy and right in heart of forest . The restaurant again was fantastic with lots of choice but quite limited on time ( 6pm-7:30pm) Breakfast like evening meal was cooked perfect at the same venue with lots of choice. Some nice walks around there but because of time we only did the waterfall walk.For this you need to be quite stable on your feet with good boots.Its about 25 mins each way .Would have definitely of stayed another night if I wasn’t on a schedule .Cant fault anything really !!!
