The hotel is lovely & in a great location. The only negative we had with the hotel is the room that we stayed in was right next to the front door/road, so was a little noisy & had no private outdoor sitting area/balcony/verandah. Other than the hotel was wonderful, the rooms very spacious & the open air bathroom was great.... More

The most appealing aspect of the hotel is the oasis-like environment inside. This will definitely help relax and unwind. The room has everything you need and the outdoor shower adds a nice touch to it. The owner is very helpful and will help you with any request you have. He know the right kind of people if you are planning... More

A few blocks back from the main plaza means this hotel is ideally situated to enjoy the lovely solitude and laid back feel to Barichara. Mauricio the owner could not have been more helpful which was great given the absence of any obvious tour agency in town. He organised horse riding for us with a quick phone call and gave... More

This hotel is located about 2 blocks from the town square, and within walking distance of everything you'd want to see in Barichara. If you are arriving by car there is not much to tell you have arrived so keep a look out for the house number and big wooden door. Inside you will most probably be greeted by the... More

We spent a fabulous night with our two kids(10,12). The room was absolutely awesome, clean, with a sky view bathroom including a nice jacuzzi. The owner had a very special treatment with us and specially our kids. The entire place is like a Paradise. Thanks Mauricio for that delicious breakfast you made for us.

This small hotel is an oasis of comfort and hospitality, located a short three blocks from the town plaza, but behind its walls a quiet world of its own.. We received a warm and gracious welcome from the proprietor Mauricio and his mother, and both were available to address any of our questions concerning the area. Mauricio speaks English. The... More

We were two couples and stayed two nights in standard rooms. The hotel is amazing... Mauricio, the owner, makes you feel like at home. The rooms are beautifull with open air showers. Super nice design. Very romantic place. Nice common area where they can prepare food if you ask for it. Nice breakfast with fruit, eggs, arepas, coffee, fresh juice...... More
