I arrived in the night and i was welcomed so warmly i felt at home. The room was beautiful, spotless, warm , polished wood, and flowers.The view from the yling ylang room was peaceful and ..oh the perfume of the flowers!

If you are looking for clean air, perfumed by the flowers of the ylang ylang tree, space to wander around, nibble greens from the garden, look around the growing food forest, grab some bananas from the "banana villa" do some yoga on the covered platform overlooking the valley, you're there. Make your own meal with fruits and veggies provided, (or... More

I had a great time. Brian and Jody went totally out of their way to make sure all our needs were met. I would highly recommend this place for anyone wanting to get healthier or simply just relaxing. 5 stars. It's also the most affordable place of it's kind in the world!

Going to Finca De Vida is like being invited into Brian and Jody's private home. I have never felt so welcome and relaxed while being so many miles away from home. My room was very comfortable and met all of needs and exceeded my expectations. I had plenty of healthy food to eat and got the encouragement I needed to... More

Brian and Jodi are wonderful people. I only visited their place a few times but knew that it is a place I MUST go back to. Not only is there breath taking scenery and delicious gourmet raw meals, but the guest that show up there, as well as the staff are worth knowing. I highly recommend it for anyone looking... More
