This property is simply breathtaking. The view is spectacular and every room has an amazing view. Outside of my room was a nice deck with hanging chairs where I could watch the monkeys swinging in the trees in the morning and the birds flying around in the forest.
My favorite part of this b&b is definitely the view; however, the other factor that made this stay amazing was the staff. Everyone working at Nepenthe is helpful and extremely kind. As a solo female traveler, I felt safe and comfortable throughout my stay. Since the location is high up a hill with a very rocky road, transportation can be tricky; however, Jose generously gave me a ride to my excursions closeby to help me. I was very appreciative!
There is a small restaurant just a few steps down the hill where you can have dinner between 5 and 9pm. The food is very tasty and, even as a vegan, I was able to find good options! The best part was talking with the staff there, though. I was truly sad to leave!!
My room was cute and comfortable. Fresh, organic bath products are provided in the room and towels are replaced daily. There is no air conditioning in the room; however, the temperature was very comfortable as it is rainy season in August and the temperature never reaches 80 degrees Fahrenheit. At night, it was honestly a little bit chilly because of the humidity. I wore a sweatshirt to bed once or twice, but I am generally cold-natured. The humidity is out of this world. At 92%, your clothes will be damp! ;)
