“What a place and the destination! The most unique boutique hotel I have ever seen. This is a place where to come if you are looking for a good night sleep, comfort and relax. Nice little town with such a nice and warm hearted people. The owners run this hotel for all their heart and their passion towards the community and people. I felt like coming to home and even more. Orange trees, hiking, spa, animals, local restaurants, fireplace and safe atmosphere and just a car-ride from bigger cities and beach - what more could you wish for? Don't know how to praise and recommend enough - hopefully posibility soon to return here. Thank you so much Werner & Lisa for wellcoming us to your place.”

“Absolutely magical place with magical surroundings. Owners are very friendly and professional. The hotel has neat and beautifully decorated shared spaces, where we spent a lot of time, drinking wine in the yard after sauna, or working on a laptop next to the fireplace. Animals are very chill and add greatly to the comfort. Everything is pristine and very well maintained. Road to Benialí is safe, and very picturesque. Book restaurants in advance.”

“This was our second stay with Lisa and Werner and it was to celebrate my birthday with my partner. They made our stay absolutely perfect. It was nice that we stayed mid week in winter as it gave us more time to get to know both of them a bit better which was interesting as we used to have a similar business in France. It’s clear that they both work incredibly hard when you consider the effort in welcoming up to 14 guests along with the endless maintenance in keeping their property and rooms in great condition. We really loved the spa, tapas and honesty bar which provided everything we needed without leaving the building in the evening. Thank you both!”

“Amazing Experience at El Capricho. The hosts of the Hotel make you feel at home and the Hotel gives you the same feeling with the design and warmth. We stayed one night in the King Room. Very spacious, a big and comfortable bed and on top a good shower! We took the package with Spa, Tapas and Cava included which was a great experience. Playing some pool with wine and tapas. Afterwards Spa with Cava! On top of it the Spa is private so no need to share or other folks hogging the Jacuzzi! Thank you so much for the experience and we will definitely come back”
