We wanted to hike in the cloudbridge Reserve (very recommendable) and for this the location is perfect. The bungalow was great with a small kitchen, some complementary wine, comfy bed, nice terrace and everything we needed. Everything seemed made with love and heart. Everything was clean. Very good breakfast with good coffee. They have a beautiful garden and beautiful flowers.

The location is incredible: beautiful but calm and peaceful (I really couldn't believe that this place wasn't overrun by tourists, less beautiful places are), colibris at breakfast, incredible (but challenging) trails with waterfalls at the reserve (you actually need two full days for the reserve, although I only had one because I also visited Cloudbridge). Also a big thank you to the very friendly and helpful staff: they made great suggestions for my hiking day in the reserve, they drove me to my cabin with a car because there was heavy rain when I arrived, meals were great, ...

Great location! I'd stopped here previously to eat, but hadn't realised there was accommodation. The cabins are great: really cozy wooden interiors, well equipped with coffee maker, nice shower and outdoor chairs. We had a fantastic view out over the valley. The cabins are down the hill a bit so you don't heard the highway at all. There's a nice network of trails down by the cabins which proved excellent for birding. And of course, the hummingbird feeders are amazing.

We stayed at the hotel for 5 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Amazing views all around, a lovely, well-kept garden. A sense of peace and tranquility. The hotel was within walking distance of restaurants and one supermarket. Our cabin was clean, spacious and tastefully furnished. We were also provided with coffee and sugar for the room. The bed was very comfortable. The hotel staff was kind and helped us with every request. Breakfast on the balcony with the birds chirping around was delicious. We recommend the stay and we would be happy to return.
