Very pretty setting. Staff was was super friendly. Restaurant/bar area was very nice. Room could very much use hooks to hang clothes as there was plenty of wall space and shelves for clothes/etc. There was little space for belongings so we had to keep our things in our bags. All else was lovely! For those that are noise sensitive, it IS Central America and dogs, roosters, cats etc….all have opinions in the weee hours of the night. I always pack ear plugs to make sure I sleep well. I highly recommend a stay here! Enjoy!

The common kitchen and restuarant were not open and the only Cafe we could find was at a bus terminal which was actually pretty good. Dogs..lots of dogs barked all night long and who knew that roosters crowed all night long as well...perhaps competing with the dogs. Booked for two nigjts but decided to leave town after one night.

Very nice place - but noisy roosters at 5am

Santa Fe town is small and quite lovely with many fun things to do. This hostel is well situated and the rooms are recently renovated and very clean. The rooms were very clean, ok comfort wise and had warm water - which other hostels don’t- so big plus. They had a bar onsite and will open restaurant soon as well. The only cons were parking as not enough and we had to park on the outside street (though seems safe) and the worst was the amount of roosters that the neighbors next door had. I was woken up at 5am to a serenade of roosters - prob over 100 going off one my one at least till 7am- I had ear plugs and it was not enough. At 6am while trying to sleep I googled a lot of facts about roosters - as apparently they can continue all day and night long. So great place for those that like waking up at 5am- but if you want to sleep in then this may not be a place for you.

Nice stay in Santa Fe

Our room had some drawbacks, like many gaps between the roof and walls that enable insects to go inside, but we used our own mosquito net and we were safe to sleep quietly. The second night ants invaded our room, we were offered to be moved to another room, but we were ok with the solution to spray them as we weren't in the mood to pack all our belongings. Reynaldo who runs the hostel is really nice guy, very attentive, helpful and available any time of the day. He is also behind the local infocenter, that provides a good source of necessary info about all possible activities in Santa Fe. Food in hostel's restaurant was also good.

Zu teuer aber wer es sich leisten will.

Es ist eben eine Eco Lodge. Kein Komfort. Personal könnte etwas mehr auf die Gäste zugehen. Das Restaurant war an 2 Tagen von unseren 3 Tagen Aufenthalt geschlossen. Die Anlage selbst ist schön.

Freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Schöne geräumige Zimmer. Lediglich die Geräuschkulisse in der Nacht war sehr mühsam - Hahn und Hund schreien um die Wette…

The Eco Retreat is also a hostel and from that perspective, it was great. We spent a lot of time on the patio / lounge and met some great people but we were easily a generation older than the next oldest guests. As an Eco Retreat, I would have expected more recycling, composting, etc options. I hope that this is in the future plans. The staff were great and the bar was the center of the life around the facility. They are currently building a restaurant which will enhance the experience. Sante Fe is a great place to visit and La Qhia Eco Retreat is a wonderful base for your visit.

If you are in the building with the four "private" rooms, be prepared to hear everything your neighbors do, especially if you are on the ground floor. Bring your earplugs, in many years of travel I have never experienced such a thing. In reality they should only rent the two lower rooms, and from that perspective I should rate this place much lower, but other than that a marvelous experience, ruined by a subpar building.

Environnement très vert et agréable, mais bruyant

Maison construite avec des matériaux naturels tels que bois et pierre, ce qui donne une touche de "chalet alpin". Environnement agréable car on est au vert et l'hostal possède un beau jardin, bien entretenu. Par contre, le lieu n'est pas forcément le plus indiqué si vous souhaitez vous reposer étant donné qu'n concert d'aboiements de chiens et de "cocoricos" de coqs se fait entendre toutes les nuits... Point faible : aucun petit-déjeuner proposé alors que Santa Fé ne compte déjà que très peu d'options de restauration.

Our family really enjoyed the laid back vibe we had here. The porch and hammocks were perfect for our rest day after some big hikes, riding and paddling fun in Santa Fe. Perfect place to chill and enjoy the mountain views, sounds and smells.
