Note re: MOUNTAIN BIKES - We have had several bike enthusiasts recommend our horse trails and roads for mountain bikes.  At this time, we do not have bikes, but hope to in the future.  Guests are welcome to bring their own, however.
SPA SERVICES - Please ask... We are looking into the prospect of making massage and perhaps other services available.

DISCOVER THE ROADS AND TRAILS - almost 100 acres from hilltops of coffee to valleys of lush giant ferns and bananas.  Sweeping vistas  of deep valleys and even a glimpse of ocean and the island Desecheo, off the western coast of Puerto Rico. 


WATER HIKE
- Suit up for adventure with our big rubber boots.  There are three streams on the property which empty into larger waterways and these meander through valleys, uncovering many waterfalls, small and large, and surprises around every corner.  Splashing and dipping is allowed!  There are a number of two-person spa-sized pools to enjoy.   There is also a fabulous "swimming hole" nearby - see "Salto Curet" on our Waterfalls page.


HORSES - we have three sweet and easy horses, including paso finos, the gaited breed renowned for its "ride-the-glide" trot.  Our horses are suitable both for beginners and for more experienced riders.  There honestly is nothing comparable to seeing the terrain on horseback!  A trail ride will take you to mountaintop vistas and through the jungle to streams and waterfalls.  Please see our Horses page for updates.







FLORA AND FAUNA - Birdwatching: Hummingbirds and finches, hawks and owls,
cuckoos and more. A variety of hardwood and flowering trees, orange, guava, avocado, mango, many types of bananas and towering bamboo, among others. The flowers
which we cultivate include gingers and heliconias of many types and orchids. 


CREATE
- enjoy sketching or painting - we ourselves are artists and encourage and, if you like, can assist in your pursuits.  Maravilla and the island offer excellent photo opportunies, as you can see from all the photos we have taken for the website.


RELAX - On a quiet night, we offer an entertaining and eclectic library and a good collection of movies.   In the cool winter evenings, enjoy a toasty fire and stargaze from our cottage.
