Great surpirse with a lot to do.

Amazing resort. We only booked it from the room photos, but once we got there we were amazed by the entire grounds/space that we had no idea about. Great restaurants, bars and they even offer free morning yoga and nightly movies on the lawn.

Loved it. A bit busy around the pool with loud DJ music, but that was only on 1 day, the Saturday afternoon. Kind of felt like a party than a relaxing spa experience. Otherwise, perfect place to stay. Beautiful hikes all around. Would recommend. 5/5.

The Estancia La Jolla is beautiful, the room is very clean, the staff were very friendly and I loved the garden. But in the first day they forgot to clean our room. When I complained, they promptly resolved the issue and the room was cleaned. I also thought it was bad because each bed only had two pillows. So these things took some of the shine off the accommodation.

Property is beautiful to look at, but I’d steer clear if comfort is a priority. The beds left me and my husband with hip and back pain, was extremely hard to fall asleep due to how uncomfortable the bed was. We stayed here for 2 nights and got the worst sleep ever. Also the walls are paper thin, you can even hear the flip flops of people just walking past your door, let alone entire conversations of people anywhere in the hallway. We were really disappointed and didn’t feel like the cost matched what we got. You’re really just paying to look at a nice property.
