"Un lugar sin privacidad. La parte frontal de la habitación es de vidrio( Sucios) lo que expone a los huéspedes a la mirada en todo momento de cualquier persona. Durante nuestra estancia habían trabajadores que acentúaban aún más este problema. Además, mantenían música y conversaciones a alto volumen. Parquear es todo un reto, especialmente con un coche grande y con otros coches en el parqueo. Para salir de la propiedad hay que bajar del coche y digitar un código, lo cual me parece una...

"Incroyable endroit de paix! Propriété magnifique avec chevaux, si singes… la cabane rustique tient bien c’est nom, c’est rustique! Mais l’expérience vaut la peine. Le manager sur place est d’une gentillesse et d’un dévouement incroyable! Sans voiture, l’endroit n’est pas très facile d’accès, mais avec une voiture il n’y a pas de problème. C’était le stop parfait avant de traverser au Nicaragua."

Our stay at Nekajui, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, was truly exceptional. The resort is spectacular, with breathtaking views, beautifully designed facilities and an incredible sense of privacy and tranquillity. The facilities are outstanding. The **gym is amazing**, while the **spa and hydrotherapy pools are truly sensational** — perfect for relaxing and recharging. What really sets Nekajui apart, however, is its people. The staff were passionate, professional, warm and exceptionally courteous....

The spa looks very good but unfortunately closes early (last appointment 1600). Wifi in the restaurant only. The zipline (canopy) tour around hotel grounds is excellent. The restaurant serves very...

10/10 Excellent

What a gorgeous place! Way up in the mountains an hour from the paved road. The thermal springs are fantastic, and the room was awesome. The "gardens" are almost big enough to get lost in, with twisty paths through beautiful flowers and trees. LOTS of birds including hummingbirds, and a butterfly house as well. Lots to do, warm and regular pools, would be fun for families Only negative was the food ... not awful, but not the standard I would expect for a resort like this. (Is this REALLY orange...
