We had the best day at Hacienda Mamecillo, and it was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Rolando and Gabriella were beyond gracious hosts. From the dirt road journey to the farm, to the beautiful cloud forest hike where Rolando knew about each and everything we saw, to eating all kinds of berries and vegetables straight from the vines (some handpicked by Isabella for us), to meeting the happiest looking farm animals, to the amazing multi-course lunch and coffee tasting, the day will go down as one of our favorite memories and experiences. Eating in their home felt like catching up with old friends, even though we had just met Rolando and Gabriella and their children. As much as I wish their farm remained like a secret club for the dedicated willing to take the road less traveled, we wish them much continued success so they can continue spreading their mission of more sustainable food/farming. We highly recommend this experience — it will surely become one of your favorite memories as well!
The best day and visit we had in Panama! This was an amazing experience in all fronts. We discovered a beautiful forest with a small waterfall, we had an excellent cullinery experience during lunch and we learned a lot about the Panamian coffee varieties. Excellent hosts!!! If you decide to visit the area of Boquete you should definitely organise a visit here.
Disconnection from routine and natural connection, a place that taught me a lot about nature and what we can do together with it, Hacienda Mamecillo changes your perspective and shows that we are part of something great. I loved my visit to this magical place, you really feel inside a movie, each place, each animal is a different story, Aah and the views are so Instagram that it seemed like a dream to be able to appreciate them. I really recommend this place to everyone even small children can be part of the expedition.
