Hotel Spa La Colina

The hotel itself can be found at the end of a single lane backroad which can easily reached by car or taxi. The staff is friendly and the dining options are good and not overpriced. The entire property is relaxing and comfortable. The layout is lovely. On second look some details and maintenance are dated. One thing that bothered us were the less than cozy lighting options in the room at night. Basically full ceiling lights or two night table lamps that had mismatching light temperatures (warm white and daylight). The stylish bathroom came also with bright daylight lighting. (Good or bad depends on your preference) The torches or gas fireplaces were not in use but would have been nice at night. The breakfast experience was not on par with other high and spa hotels we have visited but not bad either. Overall I think it has been a pleasant one night stay. My expectations were perhaps a little too high which is no fault of the hotel.

I think this was one of the most enjoyable weekend stays I have ever had. First, the staff is fantastic. They aren´t just polite, they act like they really enjoy their jobs and look forward to being of service. They were all amazing. Next, the grounds in certain places were a little rustic because they are doing construction at this moment, but inside the room it was a different story. The room was large, the bed comfortable, great linens, and everything clean and in good repair. Because of a new road that opened recently, this location is about 15-20 minutes from the airport, and the resort provided personalized transport to and from, which was very helpful and saved a bit of money. They also have pools, jacuzzis, a turkish bath, a sauna, massages, and a nice restaurant area. I could go on and on but am limited for space here. If you like nature, need a getaway that is away from the city yet close enough to be convenient, is luxurious and tranquil, I suggest this place. I will be returning here.

The staff and view are what make this hotel a 4/5. The view is wonderful and staff are very attentive. The food at the restaurant is good quality; there are no vegetarian options but they can make a vegetarian salad or pasta. The room is a little open to the elements in places which caused numerous bugs to come in each day including a huge cockroach. The shower needed to be replaced and only provided scolding or freezing water. There is nothing else in the immediate area so be prepared that you will be eating from the same menu each day. Check-in was easy and the welcome was warm; check out was excruciating slow - be prepared for a 20 minute wait. The Free airport transfer is a nice addition.
