Accommodation

There are 18 rooms scattered throughout the grounds divided chalets, preimum suites and bungalow suites.

Our comments

Quiet and tranquil and surrounded by forests and pastureland, Santa Esmeralda offers a relaxing escape from the hustle and bustle of town. To enjoy the main activities though, you do need to travel on bumpy roads that bit further. The rooms are comfortable but slightly let down by details such as electric showers and thin towels.
