We planned to hike to Pic Paradis and relax by the pool after. We arrived at 9.30 am on a Saturday with no prior reservation and were a bit worried it will already be to busy. However, while there were some visitors already, it was still easy to book a cabanita. The kind lady at the reception suggested we do that before heading of for hike, because in that case, the hike fee is lower (5€ instead of 10 €). We had a lovely hike along a well marked trail. It took us an hour and 15 min to the top. Just a word of caution - if you see a red-yellowish wasp-like creature flying towards you, move away fast. This is the Jack Spaniard wasp that protects its territory fiercely and its sting burns for hours - I learned that the hard way. As we returned to the Loterie farm, our cabanita was waiting for us. Towels are not included in the cabanita fee (towel rental is 5€extra), however a welcome drink is included. All kudos to the staff around the pool for kind, quick and attentive service! The food was also exquisite, highly recommend the steak with blue cheese sauce. The only downside were some of the guests that were rather loud and rude, playing their own music that clashed with was played by the establishment and in general behaving like they are having a private party. So, a word of caution, this is more of a party place, you might not be able to enjoy silence and serenity by the pool. However, with good food, nice drinks, beautiful green surroundings, and much to do (not just hiking,you can also do the zip line if you feel adventureous!) this is a great place to spend a day!
