The home was well done and the bed was comfortable. We had all that we needed and what we didn’t could be obtained at the local stores. Raquel is the absolute BEST! She was very responsive to our communications and answered a lot of our questions. AND she has chickens and gave us some eggs for some breakfasts

I stayed for two weeks. Initially I thought perhaps it might be too long but it was perfect. The guest house is well equipped and very comfortable. Although the property is shared with the hosts it is very private, separated by hedges and trees, and quiet. My hosts were wonderful, welcoming, thoughtful and interesting. I enjoyed the proximity to Atenas, easily walkable if you don’t mind a bit of uphill, for shopping and eating. I plan to return.

Raquel & Boaz are great hosts. The location is very convenient and you can walk into town (sidewalk most of the way). Clean and comfortable accommodations and a well-stocked kitchen if you prefer to prepare meals. Highly recommended.

Lovely stay in a spacious casita. Hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful while respecting privacy. Kitchen was clean and had everything needed to prepare some meals. Beds were comfortable. Restaurants and shops in Atenas are just minutes away. Views from the property are lovely, and we even saw toucans in the trees. Highly recommended!
