Pros: Great food with friendly, attentive service in an artistically inspired bohemian environment.
The hosts are right when they say there are only 3 sounds you will hear: the waves on the beach, the birds, and the sound of silence.
Lots of delicious vegetarian dishes, which can sometimes be hard to find in Mexico.
Beautiful pool, delightful and spacious garden of cactus, flowers, palms, and plentiful bird watching.
Quiet, relaxing, nourishing, imaginative, refreshing, non-commercial, clean, brightly painted, friendly.
We stayed in the low season of August, and pretty much had the pool to ourselves.

Cons: The only thing I would change is the unpaved road to get to this place, but that's Mexico! : )

Pros: This is a beautiful and comfortable place--the rooms and bathrooms are spacious and the beds are probably the most comfortable we've ever experienced! The gardens are well tended and lovely, as is the saltwater pool. Views from the upstairs rooms with balconies are very nice, and include the garden, the lagoon, and the sand and surf beyond. A short trail takes you to one of the most beautiful beaches and coasts around, but as with much of this coast, it is not safe for swimming. All in all, a peaceful and lovely space.
Cons: We came during the low season, so this was both good and bad. Good because things were quiet and there weren't many people, "bad" because some of the amenities were not fully up and running--the jacuzzi, the rooftop bar, and even the restaurant (in the evening), though in fairness an effort was made to determine whether guests would be available for dinner that evening. Also, birdwatchers should be aware that the freshwater lagoon has been very low recently so the birding there is not currently as strong as touted in guidebooks. This is no one's fault, just an fyi. Birds are abundant in the gardens, however!

Pros: We booked a room with ocean view, SO lovely to sit and listen to the waves. Great pool, hot tub. Delicious breakfast every morning. Coffee left for us every morning outside. The gardens are AWESOME. JURG AND LIBuche are wonderful hosts
Cons: The road to get here, but the owners here have no control over that.
A bigger fridge in the room would be nice:)

Pros: Everything - the gorgeous gardens, location, pool, rooms and staff were all lovely. And the food in the restaurant is superb. We arrived here tired but thrilled after a 2-week whale-watching cruise and looking for a bit of lazy R&R before going back to work, and it was perfect. And if you are into birding, this place is right next to a lagoon with new birds appearing each day. Lovely!! Thanks to everyone for a wonderful week. Hope to be back.
Cons: We got sunburned while sitting by the gorgeous pool and drinking their lovely margaritas all day! Obviously the hotel's fault..... :-)

Pros: I arrived and fell fast asleep on the Memory Foam mattress. Lily and Jurge were amazing, hospitable and knowledgeable. They have the perfect balance of being there when you need them and giving you space. The grounds are beautiful. If you want a relaxing place to stay, away from town, this place is terrific.

Pros: Owners of Posada La Poza Juerg and Libusche were amazing so much fun to get to know, they were so accommodating and friendly as were all their staff. The grounds, pool, restaurant, and our room was immaculate. The meals they served were amazing, they had something new every day and so fresh. As the sunset, we would go up to the terrace to order a cocktail before dinner (served by a wonderful young man named Victor) to watch the sunset over the ocean it was such a magical sight. We have already recommended this wonderful place to many of our friends, our plan is to return to this amazing paradise next year, but for a longer stay!
Cons: That we only stayed 3 days, would loved to have stayed longer!

Pros: The garden was beautifudl
Cons: The management was bizarre and the food was very bad. They decor was mediocre and did not reflect the images on the website. We decided to leave early and the owner made us pay an extra night then overcharged us for the very mediocre food. We spent $600 for 2 nights with 1 dinner and a1 lunch. After this we went to a 5 star resort in la Paz with a full friendly staff, with great food where we spent $900 for 5 days total including bar, breakfast, dinner - and it wasn't all inclusive. Save yourself the headache and don't go to this poorly run hotel.

Pros: The bed was comfortable and the grounds have lovely flora.
Cons: For the cost, the hotel was not nearly as nice as it should have been.Staff always seemed inconvenienced by tasks that seem quite normal, suchas making up a room. If the restaurant was open, we couldn't tell.The beach was a 10 minute climb over challenging rocks or through a mosquito-infested palm grove. Grout in bathroom was moldy. Terrible airfresheners were located throughout the room and bathroom. Furniture wasinconsistent in its styles and light fixtures looked as if they weregoing to fall off the ceiling.

Cons: There is a little bit of a damp, musty smell in the room, but that is to be expected so near the lagoon and lush gardens. Ideally for us the 2 queen beds should be separated.

Pros: The owners/operators are an international couple, artist wife and engineer/chef husband. They did a beautiful job designing and building their boutique hotel. The grounds even after hurricane were lovely. The food is well prepared and fresh. The staff is good and sheets are changed nightly as are towels. Beach towels are provided. The walk to beach is nice and whales and dolphin daily.
Cons: You need a car to stay here. Not an easy walk to town. Because of some bad past experiences, the owners are very rule oriented. The hot tub heat is turned off so evening use would be uncomfortable. Pool is very cold. The restaurant and bar are closed early. The front gate is locked. You must have a key to come or go. Safe but inconvenient.
