The free breakfast was delicious--choose the omlet.

A separate party house with magnificient views.

An elevated walkway led to this "tree house."

Birds were everywhere--unknown birds to me!

The tree was covered in bromeliads and orchids.

The harvest is mostly over by March but some were left.

On a walk on the mountain above the hotel--an incredible morning glory hedge.
