Boutique Casa del Rio exceeded all my expectations! The property is very lush, beautiful, and well-maintained, and so convenient that it’s close to town. The staff are very friendly and the hearty breakfast included is amazing. The rooms are well laid out and spacious, including the bathroom with a large walk-in shower and the most powerful rain showerhead. This is the most efficiently run property I’ve ever stayed at!

We loved staying at the Hotel Boutique Casa Del Rio. The staff was extremely gracious and helpful. Everyone we met seemed happy to work there.

We failed to receive a confirmation on our booking so assuming the booking didn’t go through we booked another one. Once arriving at the hotel we were told we had two rooms booked and had to pay for both. The hotel refused to refund us our money on the second one.

The Hotel del Rio was absolutely amazing. The staff was super helpful in all regards from event planning to dining to recommendations on sights to see etc. The rooms were very clean and modern. Every morning they asked about whether we wanted service or not. The on site amenities were very diverse from sports to spas. Even our kids did not get bored. Lots of trails for walking. The rooms were very private as well, I am not sure I saw or heard another guest except for at the restaurant. Would recommend to anyone and would stay there again if in the area. One of the best places we have stayed on vacation.
