Nice surroundings, very green and breezy but Unsteady wifi and tv connection , bad quality soap we had to buy one to take a shower, the hair dryer was broken and the staff said they don’t have any backup unit available, limited restaurant menu and closes at 9pm. In average- value for money is negative.

The property grounds and surroundings are just beautiful. The rooms felt humid and stuffy. The bed’s upholstered headboard smelled terrible and my husband that is highly allergic had a hard time sleeping. Breakfast is included and that was very good.

The accommodation (Chimney Suite) was nicely decorated and spacious. However the TV did not get any reception and there was only lukewarm water. The grounds were nicely landscaped. I would not recommend staying here as they tend to get many tour groups and are not set up properly for that. There was a group of 16 while we were there who completely dominated the situation. They would always sit together as a group. For breakfast one orders off the menu and there is no buffet. The group would spend significant time dining and the other guests would be haphazardly waited upon. For dinner most guests eat inside as it's quite cool then. Consequently there is not much space for other guests and this particular group were quite loud and spent several hours dining. I would suggest going up to the Finca for a coffee tour followed by a coffee drink and pastry in their small cafe after the tour. I would not suggest staying at the Finca but in town.

So, our stay was a mix of good and not so good. The location of Finca Lerida is lovely. The walks are good and the wildlife plentiful. The coffee tour is fantastic - the whole process and explanation really interesting. The place lets itself down is a coue of ways. First is the restaurant - the only place to have a meal on site (there is a place for coffee and cake and the "Gastropub" which is supposed to open 3 or 4 nights a week but only opened once during our stay and they weren't serving any food). The main restaurant is cold in the evening and yet they left both doors open to the outside. There were customers sitting in the restaurant, wearing their cold weather jackets!! That might have been a clue. The food was generally good - the kitchen do a good job - but if you're planning to eat with children (we weren't), you'll struggle to find much and it will be expensive. Finally, although we expected it to be cold at altitude, the rooms were also cold and there was no way to add a bit of heat. They were àlso noisy - no sound proofing between the rooms and the plumbing is noisy. So, there were good bits and not so good bits. Overall, for the price being charged, we felt it could have been so much better with a little thought and focus on what the customer might want.

Great place for nature lovers!
Finca Lerida is a great place to stay for anyone who loves nature, there are many hiking trails that let you explore the beauty of the surrounding cloud forest, mountain streams and hidden waterfalls. The accommodations are quite comfortable for a hundred year old property, the grounds are filled with flowering plants attracting many butterflies and hummingbirds. Overall a very nice place, slightly overpriced in my opinion but worth a visit. My only complaint would be the fact that the room photos shown on Hotels.com are general pictures that don’t depict the actual room that’s being offered. That can be very confusing, I booked a Vintage Room and found out that it did not have a hammock, nor the fireplace, nor the view shown in the photos. I ended up making an upgrade but was charged a much higher rate.

Check in was delayed. Room was not ready. Takes a lot of time for staff to attend requests. The place is beautiful, peaceful and the birds gardens and coffee great. I liked my room but no mirror for shaving. Also missing some more electrical connections and a better more powerful WiFi

Great stay at Finca Lerida
The place was perfect. A high end boutique hotel in the middle of the jungle. And we saw a couple of Quetzales in the senderos walking by ourselves. The room was impecable and the shower super nice. The beds great. And the flowers and birds are unbelievable. A superb place to enjoy the jungle. And of course the coffee.

Beautiful spot on coffee plantation near Boquete. Lots of birds and flowers on the grounds. Great hiking trails on the property. Coffee tour was really interesting. Restaurant was really good. About a 10-15 min drive from Boquete on narrow road.
