Directions from the website:

Hearts is located on an annex of Calle Real next to El Sueno Rd.  You should see our sign on Calle Real as you turn onto the annex.  Head up the steep hill past the Sheriff’s station.  As you crest the hill, make a sharp hairpin turn to the right and drive through the Hearts gate.  Follow the unpaved driveway and bear left when you reach the large arena.  Our office building is at the end of the parking lot, just past the corrals.
