Reviewer Type: Couple

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: This was not my first stay at Vida Nova Retreat, and once again it was a great experience. The location is beautiful, nestled in the mountains, very quiet and perfect for true relaxation. The pool is fantastic, and the breakfast was excellent. Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed during our stay, which was a pity, as they usually cook really great food. Overall, a wonderful place that I’m happy to return to.

Negative: The restaurant was closed.
