Skip it - the price isn't worth it

My husband and I have been visiting the valle for over 10 years and have always wanted to stay here. I knew to expect ecofriendly lodging and that the rooms were decorated with simplicity. But, it was clear this hotel has not been maintained. The cheap furniture was all scratched up and was very non-functional. The rain shower head had so much rust there was barely a dribble. Lighting was poor and the concrete floors were freezing, but no rugs or slippers were provided (only a very scratchy wool bathrobe no one would want to wear). The seating next to the firepit on the patio was awkward and the front desk was unapologetic that their tasting room was closed. I asked if I could sit and have a glass of wine in the lobby while I waited for my husband and the answer was a clear no. They also have to bus you around the property which is inconvenient, so a simplicity like a small fridge in the room would have been great. Other than the chef (who was amazing!) and the friendly restaurant staff and drivers, there is no reason to stay here. At the price, there are many other places nearby with a much better guest experrience.

One of the best boutique hotel experiences ever! The chic design aesthetic, the cute eco huts and the overall service and hospitality was above and beyond 5 stars. Every member of the staff was so incredibly kind and attentive. The pool area was pristine and the entire experience felt very unique and special. We can’t wait to come back!

Not a luxury hotel or service , only the room rate corresponds to a boutique hotel experience. Facilities and rooms are broken and without maintenance . Restaurant closed , no room service . Staff with Poor attitude. Don’t waste your money here . This hotel use to be awesome but not any more . It is just a shadow of what it used to be . They don’t have enough staff and the management is very poor.

Pricing would suggest that this accommodation is luxury/up-scale but it is not. Broken AC (rattled constantly and didn’t work.. this was during summer), cracked outdoor fire pit, moldy shower curtain, and subpar cleanliness (hair left from prior guests) contributed to the discrepancy in pricing and quality. Restaurant kitchen was closed due to renovation, complimentary fruit was offered for breakfast and later charged. Wine offered at time of check-in was not very good. Shuttles may take 20+minutes to arrive at your room, note that you need to plan accordingly. All together, very poor value accommodation; you will get better quality and service elsewhere.

The place is amazing! I love the room, the fireplace at night, the pool is super pretty, the breakfast was amazing!!
The only thing I complain was that my blankets were dirty when I arrive, that was a little bit disgusting, but they change them as soon as I reported it!
It is a little bit annoying to have to wait for the shuttle to go from your room to your car or to the lobby, but its fine, I rather wait than get our car in there.
I did a massage in the spa, my fiancé and me we really enjoy it!
Over all it was a good experience. I do recommend it!

From the moment we booked our trip to Encuentro Guadalupe- they were more than accomodating by helping us make reservations to wineries, creating an itinerary for us, suggesting restaurants and things to do. When we got there, we were greeted with a glass of wine and an overview of the ammenities- restaurant, pool, jacuzzi, car service, etc.

The owner and his wife were so hospitable and were always present asking how they could make our trip better. The owner, Romo, helped my boyfriend set up an engagement and had the most beautiful surprise on a hilltop with champagne and flowers at sunset. We were able to enjoy our engagement on our Private terrace with our own fireplace and a stunning view overlooking the Valle. You stay in secluded haciendas and 24/7 service with whatever you need.

There were shuttle vans to take us to and from our room to the lobby or our cars.

I cannot recommend this place enough for the service, friendliness of the staff, stunning views and ammenities, and location!

Room tip: Loft 1 has amazing views as it is first among the rooms.
