Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was relaxing. Spectacular view. Incredible amenities. Just an amazing experience

The property was absolutely beautiful! The play house was perfect for our two toddlers and we enjoyed the yard! Unfortunately we did have a few issues. On our first morning we did find a snake in the home which was very worrisome with having small children. Ronny did come over to look at it and let us know it wasn’t poisonous. There was also a rat or mouse inside the home which was never caught or removed. We had a lot of food items ruined by the rodent and all of the dishes would have poop on them in the morning. We would have to wash everything multiple times before feeling comfortable to eat off of it. We understand that it is a remote house in the jungle but for us we did expect a poop free environment for the price we paid. We enjoyed our time but because of the lack of host responsiveness and that the rat and rat poop was never handled I would unfortunately not be able to recommend this place.

Everything was great except that the hot water in the shower didn’t work. For the price we payed, we expect to be able to have a nice shower

Host Response

Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience, and I’m really glad the rest of your stay was so enjoyable. I’m truly sorry about the hot water. We had actually serviced the tank the day before your arrival, and when you let us know, we sent Ronnie to check it; he confirmed it was working again, so we had no idea the problem was still there. My sincere apologies for not following up the way you deserved. We’d love to have you back and offer you a complimentary night on your next visit. Warm regards.

We stayed here with our two toddlers (ages 1 and 3) for four nights and had the best time. It is hard to put into words how beautiful this property is. Our kids made use of the play house, feeding the animals, and just exploring the many small gems of the property. The adults enjoyed drinking the coffee from the farm, cooking on the outdoor grill, and birdwatching. We saw toucans, butterflies and hummingbirds. Ronny takes excellent care of the farm and is available at a moments notice. We also hired Eduardo the chef for a pizza night and highly recommend doing this-he gave us many excellent local recommendations. The house is absolutely stunning and extremely comfortable. It was a very steep drive to arrive at the property but we had no issue with our SUV. Because of the rainy season we did have some cloudier days but we also had excellent clear views and the most stunning sunset on our last night. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a personal mountain retreat!

This accommodation is incredible. It has everything you need to relax and enjoy the wonders of God's creation. The landscapes are spectacular, and the house is designed so you can enjoy it. The house, the gardens, the farm, everything is designed with an incredible level of beauty! If you come with children, they will love it. There is a tree house where they can have lots of fun…my nieces described it as a magical place. Eduardo's pizzas were amazing. Don't hesitate to hire him! Tip: Insects are attracted to the light at night, so I recommend keeping the lights low at night to prevent them from coming.

Bruno’s home is a slice of heaven. My husband and 18 month old came to enjoy time here and it was the exact retreat we needed. The views are unbeatable, the gardens are so beautiful and the animals are a huge bonus. My son spent hours playing in the treehouse. We have traveled many places but Bruno’s house is definitely a place we will be returning. We booked Edwardo for pizza and sushi night. He prepared wonderful food and his company was a gift. Danny and Sophia came to take photos of our family. Such a treat to be with them and capture memories of our trip.

Our stay at Bruno's place was simply amazing. The property is beautiful, and the surroundings are a real marvel. We really enjoyed our mornings having breakfast outdoors, relaxing on the swing, and going for walks. Our daughter had a great time, especially in the treehouse. One of the best experiences was getting up at dawn to feed the animals. We also loved the pony and donkey rides, feeding the chickens, and collecting eggs. The house is perfect: it has all the amenities, is very well designed and cared for down to the last detail, and is also impeccably clean. The fruit trees and the orchard give it a special charm. In short, it's a wonderful experience, highly recommended for families with children; our daughters are 2 years old and 9 months old. If you are considering staying in the area, don't hesitate: this place is a 10.

Hard to put into words how incredible and special this home can be. Our family adored our time here. The scale of the property is grand and the views are amazing. It was such a treat to be here and see our children discover all the wonder of this farm stay including meeting the animals and different areas of the property. The clubhouse and bunk beds was a huge hit. The chef is a must to add on. The drive to the home is very doable but take your time. Don’t hesitate to book this amazing piece of paradise.

As expected the location of this Airbnb is off the beaten track, but that is rewarded with beautiful views. As mentioned, the drive up is steep and narrow at points but we didn't find it difficult to navigate. You probably won't want to trek up and down the hill, so the recommendation to grab groceries on your way there is well advised. Overall, we found the stay to be relaxing and family friendly. Our only complaint was that the property was not as private as we expected. We knew the Ronny, the grounds keeper, would be on the premises but it felt like there were many other people on the property during the duration of our visit. One night was a little noisy but other that than it didn't turn out to be a problem. We highly recommend booking Edwardo for private dinners. We booked the pizza experience for the first night and wish we had booked him for every night. He is wonderful and the food was delicious.
