Hotel Finca Lerida Coffee Plantation and Boutique Hotel

There is a mixologist Jorge here, that is someone that is truly talented!! He challenges you to challenge him. Tell him what flavors you like, and he creates the drink! Roosevelt, the waiter is a great host! Engaging with guests, helpful and friendly. The hotel and surroundings are breathtaking beautiful! Try and find fault with this place, I dare you! It’s heaven on earth!

2023 - A peaceful stay with a breathtaking view straight out of an enchanted movie. The cabins are warm and welcoming, simply spectacular, the hiking trail is a must do and the coffee is delicious, even purchased a few to take home. Plan on returning very soon.

The best part of this hotel is the bird tour and the coffee tour given by Cesar Caballero. It's a beautiful coffee plantation but has changed hands multiple times. But Cesar's father gave bird tours and his mother picked coffee there. His grandfather lived there too. He is an incredible expert on both birds and coffee and both tours were fun and interesting. On the coffee tour we started by looking at the plants of Geisha and Catuai coffee beans and then went through the processing by drying, sorting and bagging, followed by a coffee tasting. On the bird tour, we walked the beautiful grounds and he's so good about spotting so many different kinds of birds. Hummingbirds are territorial. We watched another bird feed a baby bird, Great photos on both! The hotel has a beautiful setting and the staff is very nice but they are still trying to get their footing as a hotel. We tried to reserve the tour by email and never got a response. Over and over and over again. Our toilet kept running and we couldn't get anyone to fix it!!! Try to avoid Room #5 or ask i f the toilet runs constantly. On the restaurant: The smoked tomato soup and local grilled cheese are very good and the setting is nice. But again, we most valued our time with Cesar who has such an extraordinary amount of knowledge and such an interesting personal story.
