Kāpēc cilvēki to mīl
- Surrounded by peaceful nature and mountains
- Authentic 19th-century historic house charm
- Extremely budget-friendly rates
Ātrs apskats: This isn't a hotel—it's an off-grid homestay where you'll cross an outdoor patio to use the bathroom and rely on firewood for hot water.
Pārskatīts: @eshajain.md: My stay here was the ultimate reset. Having my own pool overlooking the vines and a rooftop jacuzzi for mountain sunsets felt so exclusive. The modern concrete design mixed with the rustic surroundings is just gorgeous. Highly recommend for a romantic trip!

BUJ un paslēptie paņēmieni
Viss, kas jums patiešām jāzina pirms grāmatošanas.
Is there reliable WiFi?
Yes, but it is powered by solar energy and guests report it is notoriously spotty.
How do I get hot water for the shower?
The host heats the water using firewood, so hot water is usually only available in the late afternoon or evening.
Can I drive a normal rental car to the property?
It is highly recommended to arrive during daylight; the final stretch is an unpaved, dark, and tricky dirt road.
Is the bathroom inside the bedroom?
No, the private bathroom is detached. You must cross an outdoor patio to reach it, which can be cold at night.
Are there animals on the property?
Yes, the host keeps chickens and rabbits on the grounds as part of the self-sustaining lifestyle.
Is there heating or air conditioning?
No. The house relies on natural ventilation and can get quite cold at night, so pack warm clothes.
