About the host
Hosted by Maribel
Love for family, nature, animals, sports, and adventurous trips that allow me to learn about new cultures. Restoring this quaint little Barn and transforming it into a vacation retreat has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Knowing that these spaces bring joy and offer meaningful experiences to our guests fills my heart.
As a devoted business development specialist, I’m passionate about helping individuals and businesses grow and thrive, always guided by my four fundamental points for a fulfilling life. This little space is a reflection of this passion an invitation to create memories and embrace the beauty of life : )

What makes this property unique
... more than just a place to stay, it’s a living piece of history with modern comfort! Instead of letting it fade away, we decided to restore it little by little, with all the love and care it deserves. In a world where so much is disposable, we wanted to rescue and honor a little magical place, filled with memories, hard work, and heart. Every corner of this small retreat tells a story, and we’re so happy to share that with you.
