Wonderful stay
Pros:

Beautiful estate
Lots of birds
Restaurant
People, great service

Cons:

Pricing of the activities is out of sync (with alternatives). Our girls would have loved to do some horse back riding on or around the estate, unfortunately the pricing was unrealistic high, even for a 5- star hotel.

Amazing hotel, beautiful grpunds, and exceptional staff
Pros:

The property is located in a gated eco paradise. Grounds are absolutely amazing and big. They provide transportation around the property via golf cart if needed. The room was spacious and the private pool is wonderfully relaxing.

Staff are exceptional. Jaime (James) is the main bar tender and he has skills. Try his “Noches en la Casita” cocktail. A delicious dragon fruit and gin cocktail that will have you wanting more. Juan Jose is one of the other restaurant staff and he is friendly and attentive, and provided exceptional service while I dined. Ivan and Michael are also great staff members in the restaurant and were friendly as well as attentive. Marvin is the bellman and he did a great job moving my luggage and providing transport around the property. Everyone went out of their way to make sure everything is perfect.

Cons:

I have provided some feedback directly to El
Lugar, about changing a couple of things during breakfast to improve the customer experience. They have received it well.
