Balcón de la Plaza

10/10 Excellent
"I’m not one to write many reviews, but what a gem of a place!! My room smelled like a rose / peony scent both the days we were here, it was so cozy and warm! The breakfast was amazing, and had a wide selection of foods! Maxi (I don’t know if I spelled this right) was at the front desk when we checked in and he was so kind and helpful. Their breakfast starts at 7 but we had a morning excursion pickup at 6:30 and they were kind enough to open breakfast earlier for us at 6. Amazingly located right on the Julio 9 Plaza and very secure, but still no exterior noise inside the hotel. Loved my stay here and would absolutely come back!"

"Our 6-day stay at House of Jasmines was absolutely outstanding from start to finish! The staff were extremely helpful, friendly, professional, and communicative (English or Spanish). Transportation was always ready for us when we ordered it. The accommodations and location were stunning. The hotel is a ranch converted to beautiful and peaceful resort accommodations. Quiet, stunning scenery, clean, well-maintained, and spacious - we stayed in a suite. The food was delicious - breakfast included - lunch, snack, and dinner offerings provided the rest of the day. The steak is incredible! We took advantage of the spa one afternoon and had a hot stone massage which was very relaxing. Some of the other activities/amenities available include horseback riding, bicycles, heated pool, and outdoor lounge areas scattered throughout the property. Such a relaxing place and if we ever have the opportunity for another visit, we would love to go back and arrange our schedule so we can take more advantage of the offerings of the resort. Thank you for an excellent visit!"
