Your hosts, Shannon and Michael

El Mirador was a private home before it became a B&B, and it still runs like one: four rooms, a few guests at a time, and hosts who arrange the breakfasts, the airport runs and the day trips themselves — in English and Spanish.

“We know you will love it here… we do.”
