Five Star Service! Awesome host and beautiful property as shown on line.
The Hacienda is a jewel in the hills of Jaramillo Centro. We love the beauty of the manicured grounds and sounds of the flowing water creeks. We enjoyed the proximity of the town of Boquete with all the amenities and restaurants. The hosts are absolutely awesome with their attention to detail & warmth.

Beautiful casita in Jaramillo
We had an excellent stay in the casita. The property is beautiful. And the host is very helpful. You are surrounded by nature. The views surrounding the property are breathtaking. The casita has a fully equipped kitchen. We cooked nearly all our meals there. I would 100% recommend the casita for any couple travelling to Boquete, Panama

5 stars is not enough for this gem of a property. Above and beyond any and all expectations. Equipped and stocked with everything you could possibly need, and more. From the sheets and towels to the cooking and dining ware, it's all there and of the nicest quality. Multiple pages of laminated Information of things to do, places to eat, and maps to get you there. Ciella & Quincy thought of everything and were so very easy to make arrangements with and are super nice folks. Don't leave without strolling the garden path on the property, it is an absolutely gorgeous labor of love with amazing views at the end. About 10 minutes from town, but feels like a world away. Highly recommend and will definitely return if in the Boquete area again.

Hosts You Want to Adopt You
We couldn't have asked for a nicer introduction to Boquete. Quincy came to pick us up after a long day on two buses and a hasty dash through the local grocery for supplies. He drove us up a 45 degree "shortcut" to the hacienda and safely deposited us in our new home away from home. Even though our package was not B&B, we were invited to breakfast before Ciella drove us south of town so we could pick up our rental vehicle. Obviously a 45 degree angle shortcut means the hacienda is on the high ground and it is surrounded by lush tropical vegetation and a tumbling creek that keeps you wondering whether it is raining or not. The accommodations worked great for us and you couldn't ask for more gracious hosts. We are post sixty travelers and recommend this spot to everyone.

Casita par excellence wonderfully romantic magical
I could not imagine the beauty. Much more magnificent in person. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything needed including refrigerator, stove 32 inch tv, high speed internet. The creek was in full swing with the sound so soothing. Waterfall seen from the terrace and walkways were extraordinary. The banana plantation was so lush and filled with exotic lilies, orchids, bromeliads, ferns. The bedding was elegant and a dream to sleep on. Bathroom contained a glass block wall with a fine spray hot shower. The terrace deck leaned out over the creek and waterfalls. The hidden deck was totally private and lush. Breakfast was extra and so worth it. Yogurt, juice, sweet breads, frittata and English muffins and Virginia ham. OMG I was one of the first to stay here after staying at there other properties before. This is the best. Don't miss this treasure.

Lovely spot, great little Casita
Overall we loved our stay here, however, there were several small things that added up in the 10 days we stayed. Our hosts Quincy and Celia were away when we first arrived and they entrusted our arrival to a friend who hadn't been properly prepared. The WiFi was not working, the local cell phone neither. There was no coffee for the morning (as promised) and it is long ride into town. Later in the week the door lock stopped functioning as well. We were able to get in touch and they were very responsive trying to fix things, calling us back many times. The Casita is new, fresh, well appointed with everything and feels nicely separate from the main house. It is only a few months old and there is still a shakedown cruise in process but we would recommend it highly.

The Casita is emerged in nature in a secluded location with beautiful views and a creek running through the property. Great tranquil place on the grounds of hacienda. I love the place, but finding it I was challenging.

Great little Casita in the Jaramillo area. You are right in the lush mountain. Nice hosts. The shower is nice and warm. There is a full kitchen if you wish to cook. You are in the mountains in a rural area of Panama, so you might have a power outage for a few minutes, but the hosts have provided lanterns for the few moments the power goes out.

A stay in the Cloud Forest
We stayed for 1 week in mid-October. The casita was in good shape, all the amenities working. The owner was away to the US, so all communications were through WhatsApp. Any technical/maintenance issues were relayed to her handyman and dealt with efficiently. During the rainy month of October, the altitude and microclimate resulted in more rain hours than experienced in Boquete and lower altitudes. During the dry months, I'm sure it is magic. The garden and grounds are a work of art.
