“A bit removed from the town's bustle, this place wins with volcano views and gardens alive with birds. The bungalows are well-equipped for simple cooking, but the outdoor space, complete with a pool and shaded spots, really shines. It's the kind of spot where you'll happily spend most of your time outside, soaking in the setting.”
