  Excepcional !!!!!!!

  Puedo con toda certeza, afirmar que este ha sido me mejor estadia en un hotel. Me trataron como si fuera un miembro mas de su familia. Que atención tan especial. No había llegado y estaban pendientes de mi viaje incluso de regreso. Las fotos que han publicado se quedan cortos para el paisaje y vista nocturna y al amanecer. Se los recomiendo 100 %. El ingreso a la finca es destapado un trayecto corto pero carreteable para cualquier vehículo.

  Beautiful property with wonderful caretakers. Breakfast was amazing. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stay that’s away from the busy city. The views are incredible, amazing to wake up to and to watch sunset.

  Nice Finca with stunning view

  We had a great time at Finca Ilusion where we stayed 3 nights. The view from the balcony is stunning, overseeing Pereira and the location high on the hill is nice. Federico the owner was in Germany during our stay but arranged all our trips perfectly via WhatsApp (coffee Finca tour, Willy tour, visit Termales San Vincente, and trip to Salento-Cocora-Filandia). Our host Ovidio was helpful as well. So we can recommend Villa Ilusion if you want to stay at a quite place in Pereira. Please not that your or need your own car or are fine to use taxis (they have their recommended driver Carlos, safe driver and kind guy) since nothing is walking distance.

  The view was beautifully. Road to get to the place real bad. Need to tell guest to make sure get an suv to get to the place. Excellent service from the staff. Always available to help us in anything. Need to update the place a little bit.

  Beautiful View, Nice People. Just a Couple Issues

  My husband and I stayed 4 nights while visiting the coffee region. Recommend you have a car/rental car. It is located in the hills outside of Pereira. If you want to do day trips to Filandia, Santa Rose hot springs, Salento, etc, you are going to spend time and a fortune on taxis to the bus station. The owner does offer a driver/tour service. But we just found it was more convenient to pick up a car at the Pereira airport. The road up to the Finca is a dirt track. We held our breath every time we went over a large rock or hole, wondering when we would hit bottom. It is about 2.5 km on the narrow dirt road. We always tried to be back before dark. The owner and the caretaker are exceptionally friendly and service oriented. For breakfast we had this great arequipa. The owner picked up two bottles and gave them to us as a gift. How nice is that. The birds around the property are amazing. My issue was with the bugs. I asked the caretaker to spray the room, which he did not do. So, I purchased spray. I also just took the broom one morning and swept the walls and ceilings to get the bugs accumulated there. I opened the curtains and there were dead bugs all over the window seals. I understand it is the tropics, but bugs inside rooms can be controlled with cleaning and spray. The water from the tap is not potable. We drank the 4 bottles that were in the fridge, and at check-out learned we would be charged for these. Should provide drinking water.
