Spent the weekend here for my partner’s bday. What a gem!! The rooms are clean and cuter than the photos. I didn’t realize both pools were warm until we got there, but it was so pleasantly surprising. Van is such a sweetie. You can tell he cooks with so much love and care. The BBQ chicken was out of this world. We cannot wait to come back! Only thing I didn’t realize is that kitchen hours do not extend to dinner, time so plan accordingly and bring bug spray for the evening :)
Dec 20-22 2025 Nice, Quite Relaxing atmosphere. We were celebrating friend's 49th birthday. My first time to The Good House originally called The Hacienda. They offer Lite breakfast/lunch/dinner menu. They do serve cocktails too. Pool is natural warm spring so lovely. Our accommodation was perfect room #7 little kitchenette, patio. Will definitely be back ** No-Kidos allowed **
This place is magical. From booking to check-in, arrival, meals, drinks, etc. the service is personal and exceptional. The rooms are are great and the patios really make them special. The grounds are beautiful, it feels like stepping into a different world that must have taken 50+ years to grow, and various areas perfectly suit healing activities. And the waters are fantastic!
Really a delight. You'll want to move in. And my doggie has a wonderful time as well. The only service we did not enjoy was the sound bath, which was an add-on.
The staff are so impressive. They are great. Everyone. Van ensured our stay was incredible and made a surprise Valentine Day breakfast that was outstanding. The "van"cakes were ufff, so yummy. The grounds of this "motel" are amazing. The vegetation makes it so calm. Highly recommended. I already miss that pool.
