Somos una familia de cuatro y solo nos hospedamos una noche para descansar y seguir la ruta al día siguiente. Para una noche me pareció bien alojarnos en Pumilio. Las niñas disfrutaron la piscina aunque el agua estaba helada pues no dispone de un calentador. El desayuno estuvo rico.

The place is fine but the VIP rooms are not great, closer to the street and next to a karaoke club that did group singing from 7pm to midnight on a Sunday! Wow, what a nightmare. Not exactly the hotels fault but it was bad.

Lovely place
Stay was lovely however difficulty with leaving early in morning. Ordered early breakfast didn’t arrive and trying to access the electric gates as no one appeared to be on site we could not open them till staff arrived 20 mins later with a remote. It is lovely place to stay but would strongly recommend gate issue be resolved for safety reasons

I couldn’t have asked for more, this is a boutique hotel, where they made you feel at home. Little kitchen with everything you need in each unit, plus, you get access to their main kitchen if you need any extras. Breakfast is a dream, freshly made. Pool was refreshing surrounded by lush and nature. We didn’t go to the spa but seemed relaxing in the middle of nature
