I stayed in Posada Suiza last week as I work with a Travel agency and we wanted to promote a bit more of Merida. This choice was excellent, its nearby Plaza Bolivar, it has access to different restaurants and cafes. Everyday we had breakfast, which varies everyday. The rooms has excellent service, very clean, the bathrooms with hot water and the place itself its nice and quiet. Their staff very friendly and responsible. Highly recommend this place!!

Nice place, decent food, not child friendly

Reviewed By Ed V

Scenario - Vacation with friends and kids. We made an advance reservation for lunch, for 6 adults and 6 children. In advance we asked if there was going to be any trouble with the kids, and the person that got our reservation said that they had no problem. When we arrived, the place is really nice, and has a good ambience. They have a place you can really enjoy, and the service at the beginning was really good. They set our table up, and lunch started. They have some options or the kids, but limited. The food was good, fresh and tasty with a good amount of local ingredients. I can say that it was a fair visit. So where was the problem: At dessert, we asked the server to bring the kids some Ice Cream, but we specifically asked to bring it on plastic cups, they did not and brought it in glass cups, a problem waiting to happen. At the end, one of the kids broke the cup, and they charged us for the cup, and with a very mean attitude towards us because we broke the cup. I think that is important that owners and servers, have to be aware of this kinds of situations when you go to the places with kids. And if they are going to have difficulties handling families, DO NOT give us a reservation. It is better to avoid this kind of trouble, and bad experience for everyone.

World class

Reviewed By Shanks1982

I stayed here for 3 nights in early January; this resort is truly world-class. With customer service and attention to detail like you won't find anywhere else in Venezuela, Estancia excels in all departments. My girlfriend and I took a 45min flight from Caracas to El Vigia and were collected at the airport by a member of staff. On the way to Estancia La Vera Cruz we stopped in the town of Zea to see the church of Our Lady of Mercedes and el niño de la cuchilla. It took approximately 1.5 hours from El Vigia to Estancia La Vera Cruz. It was raining on arrival - staff held umbrellas to keep us dry, gave us cocktails, took our luggage and ushered us to our room. The bedroom was amazing. Spacious, two bathrooms, a lounge, two TVs, a fridge, coffee, hairdryer etc, a really comfortable bed and a great view from the balcony looking out to the mountains and greenery. The food was delicious - the best i've had during my three visits to Venezuela - and i've been to some of the best restaurants in Caracas! My girlfriend had the traditional Venezuelan breakfast each morning of Arepa, fried beans, pork etc and I had fried eggs, bacon and toast. The fruit juices are amazing and really fresh. Try the jugo de guanabana y mora :-) Fruit and other fresh produce are grown on the land owned by the hotel making it very self-sufficient. There are a number of excellent restaurants from gourmet to pizzas. All great food, plentiful and well presented. You won't be disappointed!! In the evenings, there was a band playing in the pizza restaurant with couples and families singing along, which created a jovial and relaxed atmosphere. On the second day, we visited Laguna de las Palmas or Laguna Brava. The scenery and views were spectacular - and it was possible to get an arial view of Bailadores from the mountains and some great photos down by the lagoon itself. Estancia prepared a picnic, and provided a bottle of Myche that we enjoyed by the lagoon ;-). Afterwards we visited the Cascada de la Caru - a beautiful waterfall and tourist attraction close to the town of Bailadores. On our third day, a member of staff drove us 1.5 hours to Merida so we could experience the world's highest and longest Teleferico (cable car). Another surreal experience rising through the Andes mountains culminating at Pico Espejo, almost 4800m above sea level. Get a smoothie from MukumBatidos before you start your ascent. They are superb. Estanica La Vera Cruz also supports local artists. Some of the artwork and pieces of jewellery on display are a real testament to the talent that exists in Bailadores. Thank you Ricardo for the trip of a lifetime; one that i'll never forget. Hope to visit again soon.

Excellent food, excellent service, excellent rooms and an excellent view

Reviewed By Suzanne d

We stayed in Posada Sandalo for one week and we loved every single bit of it. The posada definitely deserved the Trip Advisor award. Isabel and Jose have put a lot of effort in this beautiful place. They amazed us with their wonderful cuisine. We had dinner a their place every night for the complete week and it was just delicious. They deliver a very high standard of service. There was one room left to be rented out and (even though it was high season) Jose decided not to so that we could fully enjoy this beautiful place. We travelled with 3 young children and they loved the big garden, the ran on the grass, climbed the hill at the back of the house and had fun on the slopes. It is located in a remote area and we felt safe. The view from the breakfast table is just stunning. I would absolutey recommend this gem to anyone who loves the countryside and who appreciates good food. I almost forget to mention that the rooms are high standard too. Clean and excellent beds.

A cozy and friendly posada

Reviewed By MalcolmReynolds

I stayed here in January 2012, and it was a pleasant experience! The owner was nice and very helpful, and he runs a tour agency on the side(like most posadas/hostals here) but he doesnt mind if you use another tour agency. The atmosphere is relaxed, and I felt very safe(the owner has to buzz you in) and there is an excellent italian restaurant with genuine Italian pizzas the next street over! Good: good location, and its generally easy to navigate the city. there is Wifi everywhere, and a computer thats free to use. Good price as well Not so good: the kitchen could be equipped a little better, and the shower is primitive Its important not to expect the same thing from a posada and a hostel, and for a posada, this was one of the better I have visited.
