"Eco friendly property in a beautiful, lush, and tranquil environment. The staff was exceptional in making me feel welcomed, and ensuring that all of my needs and expectations were met. The meals were delicious and I even had the pleasure of meeting the owner who took time out of his day to have coffee with me and tell me the history of the property. They made me feel like I was a part of the family. I also enjoyed bird watching and the coffee farm tour. A great place to unplug and reconnect with...
