Hosted by Gary · Santo Domingo, Puerto Rico

2 guests max · 1 bedroom · 1 bed · 1 toilet

Located in one of the last truly campesino mountain valleys, this once small family coffee farm ( Finca Monte Esplendor ) has been lovingly transformed into an eco-farm of terraces, poly cultural fruit/cacao forest and retreat center. Sana and Papo arrived some 40 years ago inspired by the terrain, PR culture and local campesino community. They are professional musicians, impassioned land stewards, experienced Buddhist meditators and yoga practioners The BOHIO is reminiscent of the rustic abodes of the PR Jibaro culture of yesteryear. Nestled in a cacao poly-cultral forest and just steps away from the pristine healing waters of Quebrada Lucia ( one of the few still uncontaminated streams on the island ), this rustic yet comfortable hut provides everything one needs- kitchen, shower, state-of -the-art composting toilet, bed alcove, pure , mountain spring water and solar power. Enjoy the kilometer of river cascades and pools surrounded by 500+ acres of the Barreal Watershed officially designated as an ecologically sensitive /nondevelopment zone bordering the Guilarte Forest Reserve. Walk the extensive well maintained trail system and enjoy the totally private swimming hole on the Finca. There is no environ on the island quite like this- the perfect place to retreat from the hustle-bustle of modern life and commune with the serenity and beauty of the forest. The sights and sounds will astound! 20 minutes from Peñuelas and 45 minutes to the beaches of the Guanica Forest ReserveEl Bohio is a rustic hut reminiscent of past Jibaro abodes located in view of Rio Lucia ( one of the few still clean streams on the island ) with private swimming hole and water falls. Nestled within the Poly-cultural Cacao forest of the Finca Monte Esplendor, it provides all necessary amenities -- cook stove, cookware and utensils, spring water, shower (spring fed), queen bed (no linens), mini fridge. There is a nearby state-of-the-art composting toilet. Totally solar powered. Cell service is excellent. Firewood available for purchase. Special activities available from Dec. - August: There is a wood fired sauna available for $25/person / $50 minimum. Also, yoga/meditation classes at the Finca Peace Pavilion $10/person.
