Vista Celestial offers a breathtaking experience in a stunning rainforest setting, perfect for relaxation or adventure. The villas provide privacy and comfort, with each offering gorgeous views and a private pool. The service truly stands out, with staff going above and beyond to cater to every need. However, the drive up the hill may be a bit challenging for some, and while the food is fantastic, it can add up in cost if dining frequently at the hotel.
