What guests say
9 / 10 · Wonderful on Booking.com, from 379 guest reviews
Hacienda Del Sol earns consistently warm praise for its genuine Southwest historic charm, exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a memorable breakfast featuring local tamales and fresh-squeezed orange juice. However, a recurring thread of complaints points to inconsistent breakfast quality and limited variety, the absence of in-room coffee makers, and privacy concerns for rooms opening directly onto the communal patio. Guests overwhelmingly leave satisfied and willing to return, with the minor drawbacks unlikely to overshadow the property's distinctive character and hospitality.
