I loved stayed at jardines. The restaurant is awesome. Only complaint is the restaurant isn't open for breakfast.

I'm not saying I won't try to stay there again because it's beautifully maintained, the restaurant is fabulous and the have dog rooms. But this really put me off. Plus the predawn departure is not a good idea with folks all over the road and too many bus lights to see safely. Leaving from Colonet saved about an hour and a lot less traffic. I still need to see if the charged my credit card.

Disclaimer. I love Jardines

But don't stay there for a variety of reasons.
Enjoy the restaurant/bar and grounds and stay someplace else.
They won't miss you...


So, where is someplace else? Just curious.

If I had a problem with Jardines, the birds are very noisy in the early morning. And I really wish that Esmeralda and Carlos kept their restaurant open on Mondays. Other than that, it's a favorite of mine.

Way back in the day, Carmen took me on a tour to show me the various rooms and describe what they were in their original home.

She got me hooked.


My memory is faded. But the dad of Jardines took me on that tour and that was when the "new" rooms were just finished. He even turned on the showers and made me feel the excellent water pressure there.
Loud birds and closed kitchen would not be a deal breaker for me.
I truly marvel at the gatden and all the plants the dad was able to grow there. Vety inspiring and when I'm ready to plant I will go back and look again at what's pretty and easy to grow.
When the place is not booked and is quiet I love it there. But when booked it's too crowded for such a small place
Too popular is how I would politely discribe it.
Too many people, too many dogs.
Disclaimer: I love all dogs. Please do not sic the baja "dogs sleeping in motel bed lobby on me."
