Who we are

A hotel that asks the forest for permission

At 2,500 metres, where the clouds stay below in the valley and the forest keeps the time. Timber cabins the mountain found before you did.

Timber cabin on the hillside, among the pines

Not one flattened the ground: they settled on stilts, timber and glass, wherever the hillside allowed. That is why no two are alike.

And what is inside comes from here too: the black clay, the wool, the Talavera and the murals, by Oaxacan hands. Nothing arrived from a catalogue.

  • Up on stilts Timber and glass on the hillside, without flattening the ground.
  • Made in this region Black clay, wool, Talavera and murals from Oaxacan workshops.
  • From the mountain to the table Wild mushrooms and high-altitude coffee from the area, at our own restaurant.
  • Forest, not garden What surrounds the cabins is real woodland: you walk it, you do not trim it.
