What an incredible stay. I came with my partner for my birthday for two nights. We upgraded to a suite and it was 100% worth it. Huge room, gorgeous bathroom, (with bathtub!!) great layout, balcony, and felt newly renovated. The property is stunning and feels like a secluded little hacienda, with tons of different spaces to hang out and everything incredibly well manicured. The food and breakfast were excellent, and the live saxophone at the bar during happy hour was super cool… speaking of happy hour…. $12 Wagyu sliders from 4 to 6 at a property like this is kind of insane. There are actually some great values here, and not everything feels like a money grab. The staff really set the place apart. Florence at check-in was amazing. I mentioned it was my birthday and that I was excited about having a bathtub, and she sent up bath salts and a bath bomb as a birthday gift. Such a thoughtful and personal touch!- thank you again Florence!! Acacia at checkout was also incredibly sweet and helpful. We’d absolutely come back. Beautiful property, great food, and genuinely great staff.

It is a lovely hotel with pretty grounds. I truly enjoy staying there however my colleagues and I have experienced overcharging or double charging on our bill so just keep an eye on that.

We came to Estancia for a celebration brunch to celebrate the engagement of my brother and future sister-in-law! Karina was our server and she was absolutely excellent. The food was great, the service was stellar, and it was a great place to build some long lasting family memories. Thank you so much to Estancia and Karina for hosting such a lovely meal and going above and beyond for a special celebration!

Beautiful Hotel, lovely grounds, spacious rooms. Staff was wonderful. Attention to detail and making guests feel welcome and at home is the key objective and was met at every level.
