Casa Marisa 2.0

Nice service. My husband and I had good meals there. Also, the owner was kind enough to do room change for us when I was frightened by uninvited guests in the room. The place is also well decorated.

We received massive support from Casa Marisa to organise our trip. Unfortunately, we had to cancel due to a ferry cancellation. Even then we received support and they cancelled for free. Many thanks!

Didn't stay here but wandered in for a drink on NYE to find the tables set up for a dinner. We were fortunate to get a table and the food was excellent. Cash only though.

The location was stunning. It located in the cratère which make you able to visit easily the volcano. There is a lot to see around the hotel and the hotel itself is worth the trip. I unfortunately wasn’t in the little traditional houses as it was for bigger groups but the rooms were also nice. It was really hot because the heat from the lava is still transpiring from the floor. The food was also super good! The owner helped me to find a guide and a way to go back to town. It is not really something I didn’t like but more something to take into account, it is quite expensive to go back to town on Sunday’s as no Aluguer are running. When you are a big group it might be ok however as a solo traveler it might be something to consider.

Host is lovely. The little house were cute. However, smell of toilets and the cockroaches in the room were a downer. The rooms are dark, little natural light. We killed 3 cockroaches which were they left in the toilet and not cleaned from the floor the next day. Breakfast was average at best. Lunches were OK. Location is the strong reason to stay here, as you start your climb from here. Close to Ramiro which is amazing!

Great location for hiking the volcano. Lovely room with amazing roof terrace for chilling and star gazing. Amazing food and friendly staff.

I stayed 2 nights at Casa Marisa on a group trip. I had my own room (room 12) with a clear view of the volcano. And it's a beautiful view that changes by the minute with the light and clouds. The terrace on top of my room, with a hammock and sofa was the perfect place to view it from. The room itself was super heated - apparently from the previous lava flow. Whatever the source of the heat the floor was hot and the walls warm! So much so as Mustafa (one of the owners recommended) I slept with the door and windows wide open. Given the temperature can't have much above 0 degrees Celsius that was quite something. The bed was fine and the shower ranged from tepid to cold. However, given they have to get all fresh water trucked and there's no mains gas or electric that's a little more understandable. The food was plentiful and wholesome, think home cooking at scale. I particularly enjoyed the fish on the first night. There was wine, gin, soft drinks etc available to buy. We also did a wine tasting with wines from the local wine cooperative which was a lot of fun - Mustafa is a natural. Very charming. Although fair to say his wine, which he described as "illness" and was one of 6 we tried, is still being perfected. So if you possess an adventurous spirit and don't mind one or two creature comforts being missing then Casa Marisa is a wonderful place to stay. I hope to come back one day. Oh and be sure to ask Mustafa how he met Marisa - it's a heart warming story.

Magnificent location with spectacular mountain views. It has several important additional services such as a tour guide, a guide for climbing the mountain, and/or a restaurant with excellent traditional food. The reception of the workers is excellent and they are always willing to help even before being hosted. I strongly advise you to stay here.
