Beautiful spaces and location. The pool and spa are brand new. This hotel is like a museum but modern and fresh. The restaurant is great for breakfast and dinner. The beds are a bit too firm for us though.

Very nice smaller hotel with good facilities. Pool and Jacuzzi are very nice. Sauna costs extra, which is not indicated at the time of the reservation, but worth it.
Room included an excellent continental breakfast and dinner was also very good. Would definitely recommend.
December is low season and it was quiet.

Solar de Boaventura Peaceful, Tranquil, Relaxing
The staff was welcoming, the hotel is very clean, the food and the Chef are amazing! Everyone was pleasant and willing to help whenever required. The grounds around the hotel are beautiful and peaceful. There are nooks and crannies with benches, tables, chairs to sit and relax. The indoor pool is huge. The view from the hotels magnificent with mountains, mist and beautiful scenery. You MUST experience this hotel!

Lovely staff and location
Really lovely staff (one woman in particular seemed committed to not only quality service but also to making real connections with her guests while juggling food service for dinner, check ins, guest requests and more at the same time).
Also, the BEST shower ever - fantasic rainfall shower head but with good water pressure and a full seal on the doors so you don't end up with a soggy bathroom floor.
The location is beautiful, so a stay would be worth it just for that.
Only complaints - the pillows were very flat and we only got two total for two people. And sounds traveled rather well between rooms (we were next to a family with a young child and could hear every time he was upset or excited).
