Fodor's Review:
The luxury villas on this 12,000-acre ranch are shaded by old-growth trees on the volcano's windy west slope. The spa has volcanic mud (lodo) baths, a wooden sauna heated by steam from a fumarole, and naturally heated mineral pools – all included in room rates. The sulfur smell takes a little getting used to. Activities include hiking, horseback riding, ATV trips, a canopy tour, and a farm tour (with cow-milking). Reaching the restaurant and spa requires steep climbs, but the staff can transport you in a golf cart. The two-room, hacienda-style villas have large private verandas; single villas are more private and even more luxurious.
