5.00The description of this experience sounded wonderful on line. The actual experience was even better than we expected. The gardens are beautiful. The tour, including trying more types of honey than I even knew existed, was delightful, and educational. Getting to help prepare the meal was fun, and super organized. And enjoying the delicious farm- to-table meal was perfect. What a treat to find this hidden gem. Highly recommend!!!!
Highlight of an excellent trip

5.00The cooking class was truly a great experience! The atmosphere was very pleasant and relaxed, so you felt comfortable right away. The instructor explained everything clearly and patiently answered every question. I especially liked that you didn’t just watch, but could actively participate in the cooking. The recipes were varied, delicious, and easy to recreate at home. I learned many useful tips and tricks that I can apply in everyday cooking. I would highly recommend this cooking class to everyone—whether you’re a beginner or more experienced. It was a lot of fun, and I would definitely join again!
A wonderful experience for kids!

5.00As a family with 2 kids (ages 6 and 9), we really appreciated how hands on and inclusive this experience was! Our wonderful host Ivannia made us all feel so welcome from the start. She gave us delicious pineapple and mint frozen drinks when we arrived, and our kids played with her dogs. We got a tour of her garden and got to smell and sample a variety of herbs and honey from her bees. The kids loved seeing all the different produce in her garden, and smelling and tasting as we went! She involved the kids in juicing a sugar cane and making tortillas, as well as preparing the spices for the chicken which was cooked on the wood burning stove. Everything was very safe, clean, and professional - and the food was delicious! We enjoyed dinner which included tortillas, soup, rice, beans, chicken, veggies, dessert, fresh juice and non alcoholic sangria! Thank you so much Ivannia for your generous hospitality and a memorable evening, we loved it!
Awesome place!

5.00This is a lovely and wholesome experience cultivated for folks who want to get an authentic, organic, farm-to-table experience near La Fortuna. We experienced a tour of their personal garden, tried various types of herbs that have different flavours and medicinal properties, and learned about how much pride they take in creating a delicious and grounded dining experience for travellers. Be sure to use Waze alongside the instructions provided to find the spot as it is slightly tucked away, but otherwise we would reccommend this experience to anyone in the area.
Amazing!!
