Cozy secluded Place.
Welcoming Friendly Staff.
Quite location, lots of flowers, birds chirping. They had a sloth in living in their yard. Which we got to see all the days we were there. Breakfast was good. Loved the home made jam.
Overall, was a pretty cozy place to stay.
(Bed was pretty firm, but that’s a personal matter )
Friendly staff, very helpful, clean rooms, great breakfast.

We arrived early and were accommodated for a check in without any problems. The gardens and property was VERY well maintained and beautiful. There were so many birds, butterflies and flowers to enjoy. We even saw a sloth in the trees by the parking lot! The room was spacious and very clean. The shower had hot water and great pressure. I loved the morning breakfast with coffee. My only wish was coffee maker in the room not just tea/hot water. But coffee was always available if wanted. The front desk had excellent recommendations for excursions and restaurants. We had no car so they also helped with taxi when needed.

Gorgeous grounds, felt like an oasis. Jennie prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, including a great homemade salsa and homemade marmalade. She also pointed out a sloth (perezoso) sleeping in a tree outside. Josephine was kind enough to help me book a night tour and to find a kayak tour in another city . Highly recommend.

A definite suggestion for your stay
The service and location were great. The staff was very nice and friendly, and were so helpful with suggestions on tours and restaurants. You can walk (5 minutes) to plenty of restaurants in main town of Santa Elena. For animal enthusiasts like us it was great, we saw plenty of beautiful birds on property and we even saw a sloth on hotel property on the first day of visit. We will definitely be back to this property.

This place was an incredible deal! Wonderful and helpful staff, beautiful grounds, the room was great and outfitted well, and the location was perfect. I would definitely stay again. My kids loved the gardens and we could easily walk to town. They helped arrange dinner reservations and tours which were all excellent.

Great spot for a big family!
We LOVED our stay in the house of the hotel (Casa de Luna). It had plenty of beds and bathrooms for the whole family and it was nice and cool and comfortable. The surrounding plants and trees on the property are beautiful and so well-maintained, I loved seeing green parrots and other birds in the morning, and relaxing on the hammock. Plus it was close to so many great activities. I would definitely stay here again.

We just loved the House we stayed in - spacious, amazing view, each bedroom had its own bathroom, the hammock outside made the stay so relaxing.
We did use the kitchen as much but we would if we would stay longer, absolutely fully equipped.
The receptionist called multiple places for us to find available night walk tour because many places were sold out for that one night we needed the tour. They even offer laundry service and made our laundry on time for our leave ! Overall great experience- we felt very welcomed by the property warm hospitality.. I wish we would stay longer..
