Beautiful hotel, excellent staff and gorgeous grounds. The restaurant wasexcellent as well. We originally booked a place in San Marcos but the bathroom was not private or close. Santa cataria was much more peaceful. And the pools were wonderful.

This was a beautiful hotel very close to the lake. There was a couple things that were walkable nearby but for the most part, it would require a 15 minute ride to do anything else that would be my only complaint outside of my bed being very hard. The staff was great. The food in the hotel was a little inconsistent. I ordered the same breakfast on two different days. One day it was amazing the second time I ordered it I was really unhappy with it. Staff and presentation at the restaurant made up for it. They really cared and we’re very sweet.

Hotel villa santa catarina

This place is beautiful and well maintained. Breakfast was included and was good. Not much to do around the property. I recommend searching for tours (not the one the hotel offered/tourist trap, way too overpriced) Cons: Dinner is way too overpriced, small portions and the food was not good unfortunately.
