"Lost of space. We loved the pool, the barbecue area, the balcony, the large kitchen, dinning room and living room. Having 4 bathrooms was excellent for a large group."

Hacienda Santa Cristina

10/10 Excellent
"This property is beautiful, lush roses, two pools and a jacuzzi. It is well maintained by the staff at all times between the gardening, cleaning and covering the pools when no one is in them to make sure no bugs are in the water. The dining was exceptional, they handled our limited Spanish very well, accommodated food allergies, remembered how we liked our morning breakfast, and had a wide array of food choices that were all delicious. My husband loved the ceviche and abalone, I loved the scrambled egg breakfast and chicken and mushroom risotto and my mother loved the flavorful soups! A wonderful spot for families with children to play, a hidden gem, we give our highest recommendation!"
