Top Empfehlung!
Pros:

Absolut tolle Unterkunft! Wir lieben den Spirit dort und das Gemeinschaftsgefühl! Alle Mitarbeiter und auch die anderen Gäste waren super freundlich. Das Gelände ist wunderschön und man fühlt sich wie in einer kanadischen Lodge. Die Gerichte im Restaurant waren lecker und es gab so viele unterschiedliche Plätze zum relaxen und auch arbeiten. Wir wären gerne länger geblieben.
Die runden Zimmer waren super, allerdings etwas klein für zwei Backpacks. Wir haben uns aber beholfen.

Buena ubicación
Pros:

La ubicación privilegiada en el centro de boquete te permite llegar caminando a todos los sitios turísticos. La comida de muy buena calidad y precio accesible. El hotel cuenta con áreas comunes muy bonitas y un calendario de actividades. El personal fue amable y me ayudó en todo momento. Tienen estacionamiento gratuito.

Cons:

En el hotel estaban haciendo remodelaciones y los ruidos no me dejaron descansar adecuadamente. La cortina del baño estaba sucia, el resto de la habitación, sabanas y amenidades en orden.
Fue muy difícil trabajar en las noches en el coworking, solo tienen luces amarillas muy tenues, se necesitan luces blancas de oficina.

Es hat alles wunderbar gepasst!

Pros:

La Onda es un hotel súper bien ubicado. Las habitaciones son limpias y cómodas, y el personal muy amable.

Por el medio del patio pasa una quebrada y le da un ambiente bastante bonito y relajante al lugar.

Es la segunda vez que voy y la verdad todo sigue estando muy bien. Lo recomiendo bastante.
