Het was een adembenemende ervaring. Het verblijf is zeer ruim en van alle gemakken voorzien. Daarnaast biedt het een uitzicht over de skyline van San Jose. Vanaf het ruime terras kan je genieten van alle vogelgeluiden, heerlijk! De koffie is uitstekend en we hebben genoten van de grote botanische tuin. Het was de beste locatie om onze roadtrip te beginnen.

The property is exactly as described in the advertisement. In fact, the pictures don’t do the property justice! The hard part for me was finding the property because of lack of street signs and problems with my cell phone. The property is in a semi rural area. You definitely should not try to find at night. It didn’t help that my Spanish was very rusty! A hidden gem for sure.

Wir waren nur für eine Nacht in der Unterkunft von Phil, bevor wir weiter an die Karibikküste gefahren sind. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Ausblick in der Früh war wunderbar!
