Miami (MIA) to Tambor (TMU)

9.6/10 Exceptional! (12 reviews)

The white design does not fit in this environment. The white plastic seats and leather do not invite to sit. The chandeliers were dirty and birds were building nests in them. The pools were dirty and poorly maintained. The cleaning lady left the doors open one day. Raymundo was lovely though trying to satisfy our wishes. I give this property maximum three stars.

There was nothing not to like about this property!!! Well... except the steps maybe to get to our bungalo! 121 straight up the mountain! But it was so worth it!!! We were there and only saw one other couple on property the entire time! The staff was incredible! Helpful, polite, available... perfection!!!!! Cannot wait to go back!

9.8/10 Exceptional! (18 reviews)

The property is very unique in that you will see wildlife everywhere. People who have issues walking should avoid the villas . There are just too many steep steps leading to the main lodge. The roads are not paved so be prepared for bumpy rides.
