"The views are absolutely breathtaking and look west over the Pacific Ocean, giving you and your group fantastic views during the day and especially at night for the sunset."
"There is a very large impressive forest with waterfalls on their grounds for hiking."

“Valle Escondido impressed me with its commitment to eco-tourism, blending comfortable accommodations with a working organic farm. I admire the thoughtful integration of nature through accessible trails and nocturnal wildlife tours. The focus on sustainability extends to the dining experience, with fresh, chemical-free ingredients sourced directly from the farm-a commendable touch.”
