The place is absolutely beautiful. A different kind of beauty because I don’t think I have seen different types of cactus in one place all at once. The place is slightly hard to access and google maps can be a bit deceptive with directions. Affordable entrance fee. Only downside is, there’s no guide to take you around. You are left to wander by yourself. Which is ok. But a guide would suffice. Finally while we were there a group of girls were doing a photo shoot … when they realized we were taking the same path as them, they quickly closed the gate at us. Advice to the property managers, no visitor is better or superior to the other. Please tell your guests to not do that. Takes so much effort to access the property only for a group of girls to play loud music & shut the makeshift gates at other visiting clients. Overall I am so glad I visited the property. So much to learn on properties of Cactus & the different variety. Thank you...

I HIGHLY recommend visiting if you’re interested in a different sort of garden and somewhere slightly off the beaten track (there were maybe 8-10 of us in total there), or if you just love gardens, plants, or cacti, specifically. A beautiful and...
Read moreBeautiful! Hidden gem. We loved this tour, great place to spend time and take pics!
You have to call and make an appointment to tour the gardens because they are often closed for private events and the have to make sure some one is available to show you around. Have your hotel call and set it up for you or send an email with notice.
We learned a lot about the different types of cactus. The have 2 lil baby camels that were super cute. They are building a restaurant, so I would love to go back and eat once they’re done.
