The team at Sombra del Agua went above and beyond to make our recent trip a truly unforgettable experience. Not only did they provide exceptional accommodations and service at their beautiful hotel, but they also facilitated a fabulous dinner for our large group. The beds were very comfortable and the location is perfect. The hotel used to be an old home, so there isn’t the best insulation. They have a sister hotel that has more updated rooms and a spa & gym. Both restaurants are amazing.

This is a really good hotel. The staff is lovely and very helpful. Rooms are comfortable and very clean. We had a challenge working the tv and the safe in the room didn’t work, but in spite of that we would stay here again. The restaurant in the hotel is excellent!

Beautiful hotel and excellent food

Beautiful hotel with excellent food. The courtyard is a lovely place to have breakfast in the morning or dinner at night, when they light a fire creating a great ambience. Staff were great. Very good central location but the hotel itself is really calm and tranquil. Really nice toiletries provided. Excellent value for money.
