⭐ Roca Venados: una experiencia encantadora Nuestra estancia de dos noches en la cabaña Libélula fue inolvidable. La distribución bien pensada y la cama tan limpia hicieron que nos sintiéramos muy cómodos. Lo más especial: subir a la roca para contemplar las estrellas capturando fotos y momentos mágicos. Durante una caminata matutina por el sendero largo, tuvimos la suerte de avistar venados cola blanca en su hábitat natural. Diego y Daniel nos recibieron con un trato cálido y amable que hizo nuestra visita aún más especial. Recomiendo este lugar a quienes buscan tranquilidad y conexión con la naturaleza.
Lugar muy tranquilo y natural pese a estar a pie de carretera, las cabañas cuentan con los servicios necesarios para ir a relajarte. No tiene TV ni internet e incluso la señal apenas llega lo que lo vuelve ideal para desconectarse del mundo un par de días, la atención por parte de las personas del lugar excelente
Very welcoming,owner s are excellent hosts providing you with many places to visit and activities to do.Very clean ,welcoming and quiet resort to stay in your van,camping or rent one of their gorgeous cabins
Amazing experience!! My husband and I went during December for our honeymoon. The rooms are clean, the service and food are great, the views are amazing, and lastly it is a perfect place to get away from everything and relax next to nature.
This place is magical, part of the Vallarta adventure tours "Pueblo mágico Mascota and Talpa" , they take us to have carne asada there, they cooked for us everything was awesome. The houses are for rent, beautiful houses to spend time with your friends and family and they also have activities there if you stay like hiking and more.
Ecotourism place has cabins, rooms and an area to camp with hot showers and an area for campfires. It is approximately 2 hours from Puerto Vallarta and 3 from Guadalajara. The drive is beautiful with windy roads that are mostly well maintained (during the rainy season there are lots of potholes) Climbing, Hiking, Camping, Mountain Biking, Spa area activities. The town of Talpa and Mascota are close by with other places to visit.
This place is fabulous. I spent one night here in my campervan and they let me park by the office so I could use the wifi to work. They organize group hikes and have lots of room for big rigs as well as cabins.
