This property was beautiful, comfortable, and made you feel one with nature. They have onsite spa, hot spring pools to soak in, and outdoor volcanic mud experience that is very unique. The food at the main restaurant is delicious, and the staff are very friend. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful property with large pool area and thermal pools with walking trails. Stayed in junior suite high above and was able to see amazing sunset. Room service offerings were limited to dinner, resort is not easily walkable, you need to request shuttle if you stay higher up in suites. Road to get to resort was very rocky, but worth it.

Beautiful grounds and accommodations. You can walk to the pool or the thermal pools or ask for a ride. Food is inconsistent with breakfast good, lunch excellent and dinner a disappointment. You are at least an hour on a bumpy dirt road from anything so it is not like you can eat elsewhere. Service is great except for breakfast where they are understaffed. I wish they had a trail map with signs and enabled you to explore on your own. Instead they want you to sign up for guided excursion for $ which some might want but not all. We stayed for 2 nights which was perfect.

This is a great place for spa. It is out of the way so unless you rent a car - you are stuck at the resort. We were there in the off season, so we only had access to the one restaurant. However, the staff was very friendly, the pool and spas were very clean and the staff was friendly. One major downside is that the bungalows are going to be uphill. So going to and from the pools and spas from breakfasts and/or excursions will have you hiking a fairly steep road.

the linens were in terrible condition, they felt like sandpaper. I have never encounter worst quality linens in any hotel and I have spent a lot of time in hotels. they also had bed bugs, I have many bites. to make matters worst, we were low on gasoline and asked I they could sell us some since it is a very remote area, and they sold us one gallon for 25 dollars, which I found abusive.

A nice resort, but at a dead-end
The resort was everything it described and the on site restaurant was DELICIOUS. But Google maps had told us there were roads available for getting to other places but there are not! Know that once you get to Bourinquen the only way to get anywhere else is to all the way back to the main highway.

While the resort itself is quite lovely, you need to understand that it is not close to anything, with a challenging road to get there, and only one option for dinner. It is ideal if you are looking for a quiet retreat. The property is stunning - small chalet/villas dotting the hillside, overlooking the gardens, the canopy and the mountains. The villas are great - fresh and clean - with a balcony for you to sit on with your morning coffee. The pool is also great & well maintained. There is a wet bar poolside and a snack bar over the steps next to the thermal pools, mud bath. However, visitors - especially families- need to understand that the wet bar and snack bar closed at 4pm (not sure if this is because it's off season) and we could only eat dinner by reserving at the one restaurant, even though it said there were three restaurants. Food was good but once you finish dinner there is nothing more to really do, as the pools close at 8pm. This is all lovely if you are looking for peace and quiet but 3 days was too much for us. The grounds are perfect for bird and monkey watching! A huge WOW for the ziplining which my 15 absolutely loved! One last thing - if you are going to drive in, be warned that 15 km of uphill, unpaved road isn't for the faint of heart. Ensure you are driving a 4X4. After taking a road trip to the beaches, we couldn't imagine doing any more day trips. Overall, peace & beauty, but two days with a family, is enough.
