Enter town El Valle follow the signs to Hotel Campestre on the right northern side of the town. First building as you arrive is the gas station ... a Delta gas station at the Mall. Go past, take the street to your right just past the Hotel Greco which has the large pool. Go a mile then take the left fork at the small Chapel. Go straight a short distance and you will be at the entrance of Hotel Campestre. There..turn left..follow the road along the perimeter of the hotel which then turns right up the street. We are the 2nd home on the left and located just past the turm off to Mata Ahogado road that goes to Altos de Maria and Mata Ahogado. Home has large gates. One pillar says Finca San Antonio & the other Family Garcia Benjamin. Drive in, your cottage is straight ahead.

retreat

It was quiet and secluded. The gardens were amazing. Our accommodations were perfect for us. We did see some birds including a peacock and a toucan but were probably more interested in the plants than the birds. The pool was great. There are a great selection of restaurants and a well stocked grocery store in El Valle as well as lots of things to do even in rainy weather.

Decent location

An older property near the edge of town. Host was very approachable, good information as he has lived in the area for years. Beds are comfortablebut several pillows were set aside as they were very used or showed signs of mold, (the owner bought some new ones after he was made aware), kitchen is stalked decently(we had our own spices) we had to wash cutlery and dishes that we were going to use as the drawers held too much debris to allow use without washing first. No AC but that wasn't an issue for us. There are fans in the rooms. We walked to town a few times(easy walk in 20 minutes) , lots of Orchids and other plants on the property. Pool was clean. One can expect to see peacocks on the property or building roofs at some time. Charles keeps gates onto the property locked at night(a common thing in El Valle), renters do have a gate key. I think dog barking at night anywhere in El Valle is common.

Loved our stay!

The host and his family received us so warmly! Communication was quick via WhatsApp and the host arranged a two days of birding for us with the best guide in El Valle. The home was just as presented, clean and comfortable, no AC needed. The gardens are beautiful! I spent lovely afternoons just lounging at the house.

About the host

Hosted by Charles Garcia Benjamin

Host profile image
I am a retired dentist that studied at St. Louis University, Missouri. I was born and grew up in Panama. We have owned this property since 1969. I enjoy being around others and turning part of our home into a rental unit has given me the opportunity to continually meet and interact with new persons.

Why they chose this property

El Valle is the second largest dormant inhabited volcano in the World. It's known for its fauna, exotic migrating birds, wildlife and cool climate. Our home is on the quieter and greener side of the crater. You can walk to downtown El Valle in 10 minutes. There are many hikes along the rim of the crater. The views from the rim of the crater are spectacular. We still have frequent visits of exotic toucans, peacocks, chacalacas, wild red and yellow crested parrots, green parakeets and many migrating birds that return every year. We have many excellent restaurants. El Valle is a must see desti action, and I take pride knowing that I have one of the better and safer places for you to stay with your family.

What makes this property unique

My place is unique in that it has the largest collection of native orchids and bromelia in El Valle. The exotic gardens are beautiful. We are visited daily by the surrounding wildlife, parrots, butterflies and iguanas. Our yard has baby iguanas, as the mature iguanas lay their eggs in our yard.
