Absolutely exquisite little European-style hotel that feels like a semi-hidden private courtyard garden that is every bit as lovely as shown in the pictures, and beautifully, managed by a war but un-intrusive staff of three.
Alfredo is your delightful host, who corresponds in advance of your arrival to solicit any special requests and confirm your arrival time. He is available by text throughout your stay, though He also on site almost all the time, with a warm smile, laugh, and sincere interest in your enjoyment.
We entered through a private door, greeted by charming young Alex, son of Blanca the housekeeper/hummingbird whisperer who's been there over 20 years. We passed under a cool mist and were shown the amenities on our way around the pool,
where a few other guests relaxed on comfortably shaded lounges in the quiet, beautiful garden ambiance. Our fellow patrons were a pleasantly diverse mix of older and younger couples, gay and straight, American and European. All were respectful of the serene atmosphere --including the two pre-teen French boys well-monitored by Mom -- all easily enjoying themselves.
Our room was steps away from the pool with its own little bistro table set under the shaded pergola. Inside was pleasantly chill, gorgeously appointed and spotless. Fresh flowers, complementary sparkling waters, luxurious linens, and sustainable amenities created a private, elegant oasis.
Breakfast was fabulous coffee, muffins, croissant, bagels, fruit, yogurt -- all beautifully laid out and attended by Blanca and Alfredo, both of whom offer to make you a cappuccino, latte or espresso, but the regular Americano is pretty fabulous itself.
I can't write everything that makes La Maison a relaxed, unpretentious, French-Spanish refuge where we'll be returning regularly. Try it yourself-- you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much, Alfredo, Blanca and Alex we'll see you again soon!
