8/10 Very Good

Great retreat away from buzzle and Hussle
The Hacienda views were Amazing. The place itself is so remote -you arrive via uphill roads in middle of nowhere so plan ahead because you could get lost at night and GPS may fail you in certain areas- but worth the trip. The Hacienda offered us a fantastic treat of Puerto Rico's quiet countryside and its unique beautiful Nature. Many coquis mixed in at nighttime filing the air with local sounds to accommodate farm raised sheep's and even a pig onsite. In the morning, the Rooster's crow sounds heavenly. This Place was so beautiful and serene. Our bedroom needed better lighting, but our bed was comfortable, and the place was well manicured and Star gazing at night was magnificent. It was All quiet and clean. The Christmas decor was also in place which made it so festive. And the lady in charge of kitchen made a fantastic breakfast plus composteao rice for dinner that was so tasty Yummy and Magnificent. The only disappointment was the coffee -as offered, it was surprisingly lame-watered down and weak- I expected better being that they sell and breed coffee in this area, so this particularly was a bit disappointing but all else was good and the staff was okay. Not excessively friendly but rather reserved and bit suspicious-unlike other encounters we had in the island with its welcoming people. Perhaps because this is a place that's frequently visited by locals so other tourists can be seen a bit invasive or off key.
