Way exceeded my expectations. Beautiful country setting - great food and service.
Pros:

The grounds were absolutely amazing. So enjoyed walking the grounds and visiting the stables with all the horses.

Cons:

I'm usually pretty picky but I can't think of anything I didn't like about La Palma.

Despite the beautiful surroundings, the poor room quality and lack of maintenance made our stay disappointing.
Pros:

The beautiful surroundings, the horse stables, and the many opportunities for outdoor activities and recreation.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our room had several issues. There was no window or proper ventilation, making the room feel stuffy. The doors were damaged, and the main door lock did not work properly. The bathroom also had no window or ventilation system, and the shower drain was clogged, causing water to overflow onto the bathroom floor.

We had requested an extra bed in advance, but it was not provided. As a result, the four of us had to sleep in one bed. Although the bed was large, it was not comfortable for four people, and we did not get a good night’s sleep.

The concept of the Polo Club is wonderful, and several of the amenities are very nice. The gardens are beautiful, and the rooms were clean. However, the overall quality of the rooms is disappointing due to poor construction, low-quality materials, and a lack of maintenance.

For example, the wooden wardrobes and doors were already damaged and looked worn, and the wooden flooring on the terrace was in very poor condition.

The bedroom could not be properly darkened because too much light came through the curtains, making it difficult to sleep well. In addition, the walls offer very little sound insulation. We could clearly hear conversations and noise from the neighboring rooms. On our first morning, we were woken up at 6:30 a.m. because the guest next door was talking loudly on her phone. It was a very disappointing experience and significantly affected our comfort.

Pros:

The staff were so kind and helpful. This place is BEAUTIFUL. We stayed here as a stop over in Quito before we traveled to Galapagos for our honeymoon and did not expect much, but it was just amazing, the grounds are so well looked after, the facilities are also a plus we used LUM Spa massage and jacuzzi one of the days which was great and the gym and pool are so clean and everything so close by. Strongly recommend this place. Breakfast also so nice, they pay attention to detail.

Cons:

Everything was great

Beautiful green property near Quito airport
Pros:

It's a beautiful, fairly peaceful location. Can hear the airplanes arriving at the airport, but not a problem. The room was beautiful and pretty comfortable. The restaurant had good food.

Cons:

The sky light in the bathroom made it quite hot and it was angled straight at the vanity, so heat on you when using the mirror. Lighting in the room was a bit dim. No overhead light. Restaurant service was a little slow. Evening server was great, but morning one didn't speak much english. It is a 30 min drive from the airport.

One night stay in beautiful room and surroundings
Pros:

Location . Grounds . Beautiful rooms. Good food and drink choices. Great communication from Johnathan.

Cons:

We don’t want to sound picky as the place is really lovely but the outside afternoon table service that we experienced was poor - Sat outside for drinks and waitress introduced herself saying she would be looking after us but after our first drink we never saw her again . No member of staff revisited our table . We had to go inside twice to ask for service with a total wait time of approx 20 mins to take our order. I’d like to think this was a one off .
