Family hotels and homes in Florida

Few people in Colombia speak English but the staff were patient with our poor Spanish and worked hard to make up the difference! The hotel manager had quite good English and was very helpful arranging cars for a very early morning departure. Rooms were exceptionally clean.

The location is stunning, quite close to the top of a mountain ridge. Surrounded by forests of tropical plants, bamboo and banana plantations, the Villa's grounds are given over to areca palms, banana groves and stunning flowers and shrubs. In the centre stands an impressive house with numerous balconies and comfortable guest rooms. We chose to stay in a separate building called Cristal House which felt as if you were sleeping above the forest itself. The jewel in the crown is a beautiful pool, fed by mountain streams and given over to fish and wild birds.
