Beautiful Hotel with some quirks
Pros: Location is great, grounds are beautiful and staff is very nice and helpful. Rooms are nicely appointed. Cons: Bed is small, horrible sewer smell from bathroom, 1-2 inch gap in room door. And had major shower/sink temp issues. We brought it to the attention of the front desk and they said someone would come look at it, but no one ever did. I have a feeling its just a hotel wide issue. The issue was you can only get scolding hot water or freezing cold no in between. There seemed to be a lot of families with children which is great for families not so great for couples or singles. Also, I was really looking forward to the yoga they advertised as daily, however when I asked about it at check in they said they currently don't have a yoga instructor.

The hotel sits on a mountainside with fabulous views across rolling hills to the Pacific. It’s set in its own nature preserve with trails to hidden valleys and waterfalls. Save time to go exploring. We woke to the growls of howler monkeys and ate breakfast watching the birds off the terrace. There’s a wonderful lawn with room to play and a secluded hammock garden among the trees. Plumbing in the bathrooms is a little temperamental with scalding hot water. If you book the family kitchen room, which sleeps 4, be prepared for lots of ants.

Hotel property approach road is very very Bad. The Room was an utter disspointment, Dirty, multicolored and Stinking towels , Cracked Floors , cracked Cups , No TV , No AC , No Heater. Bathrooms felt unclean , old and unmaintained. We all felt cheated for the room rent we were charged. our compaint to the front desk was smirked off. While our breakfast was Included in the room tarrif , Staff was unfriendly and made us feel as if we were fed for free, refills were charged exorbitent for the quantity served. Overall , Except for the Nature and trails outside the property everything else inside the rooms is quite shady. We were given a junior suite at ground floor.

This propert is very beautiful and unique. The grounds are surrounded by beautiful forest and and an open area with spectacular sunset views that include the Pacific gulf. The food is very good and the clay oven pizzas are fabulous. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room was large and clean with a very nice deck overlooking a garden. This hotel is very environmentally conscious but there is no lack of comfort.
