Mawasi Finca is gorgeous and peaceful while Bonnie and William, the owners, are thoughtful and entertaining. The finca has been built to take full advantage of the impressive Colombian landscape. We went for runs in the morning, which gave us a chance to see some of the countryside, and cooked delicious pizzas at night. Everything we could ever want was... More

We had a great experience at Mawasi Finca. William and Bonnie (the owners) were wondeful hosts. The finca is beautiful and setting magnificent. Try to arrive during the day as it is difficult to find at night (although William will meet you in town and escourt you if needed). Be sure to go hunting for fossils. Horseback riding was also...

After a busy week in Bogota, Mawasi Finca, near Villa de Leyva was a lovely quiet retreat. William and Bonnie made my visit feel like a home away from home. I loved starting each day with a view of the sunrise over the mountains, the songs of the birds, and several cups of Colombian coffee. I looked forward to the... More

My friend and I had the good fortune to spend 5 nights with William & Bonnie at the Mawasi Finca, 5 miles outside of Villa de Leyva, Colombia. The finca sits on about 1 acre of land with beautiful views of the hillside on the other side of the valley. Bonnie, the Canadian born owner, bought the land as a... More

William is a fantastic host. We travelled with our two year old daughter and we absolutely loved Mawasi Finca. The accomodation is well laid out, private witha view to die for when you wake up in the morning, overlooking the mountains. Williams cooking is first class, and very accomodating. He pointed us in the right direction when looking at travelling... More

WOW!!! Our mouths dropped upon arrival as we took in the beauty of Mawasi Finca. The setting is truly magical, from the boundless mountain views, volcanic rock formations and giant aloe plants to the light that dances through the upstairs window waking us just in time for William's freshly squeezed orange juice and scrumptious breakfast masterpieces. And, my absolute favorite,... More

I cannot recommend Mawasi Finca enough. Our stay of three nights was fantastic. The location is great, set in the rolling countryside you feel away from it all but only 20 minutes from Villa de Leyva. The buildings are unique and full of character, you feel like you are staying at a friend's country house not a B&B. Waking up... More

I have visited Villa at least once a year for the last 10 and this is by far my favorite place to stay! It's more like having your own country home, with help, than being at a hotel or B&B. You do what you want, when you want and how you want and Bonnie and William help figure out the... More

Being Villa de Leyva one of the most popular destinations in Colombia, I have stayed in Mawasi several times ever after I met its owners. They personally take care of business and provide visitors with the best atmosphere without imposing it. It is definitely an off the beaten track location, only a couple of miles outside the town, and it... More
