We had an amazing time. The view was spectacular, and we were very close to the volcano and other attractions. Minie, the property dog, was the sweetest and kept us company. 10/10 recommend

We had a wonderful stay at Marisol’s place. In fact this is probably the 5th or 6th time we have been there ! She was so kind to offer us an upgrade to the newly renovated Studio Suite, with amazing views from the bedroom. Quinta Esencia is a wonderful place and we will go back and back and back as many times as possible! thank you!

Me encanta este lugar es la segunda vez que me hospedo siempre la pasamos muy bien, la calefacción y las flores se nota el nivel de detalle para recibir a los huéspedes, la cama es súper cómoda y la propiedad es bastante bonita
