How we welcome you

Where guests are treated like friends.

Casa de Nelly is one of San Agustín’s original traveller houses: a tropical garden of birds, flowers and fruit trees, hammocks for reading and corners for doing nothing at all. It sits about a ten-minute walk from town — close enough to head out exploring, far enough to hear the birds.
