The Hacienda de San Antonio far exceeded our ( high ) expectations!
This place is so far over the top it is hard to even explain it.

Staff, property, accommodations other guests all fabulous

Safe travels from Cross Border express into Tijuana terminal
And easy flight with Volaris 
Under 3 hours to
Colima - Colima Airport is a bit third world ( ladies bathroom has no seats on toilets ) - but everyone was nice 

Hacienda driver picked us up in new suburban and drove us  about 40 minutes through both sugar and coffee plantations - beautiful country - 
Arrival was special
With staff

One of the best Hacienda's in Mexico

A dream come true, this is all I can say! The staff, the beauty inside and surrounding the hotel, the way everything is cared for to make your stay unforgettable! And the lemon tart….Perfection! We hope to be able to stay there again in the near future.

Simply paradise!

I can't put enough positive words to describe this magical place!  BY FAR the best service we have ever experienced in all our travels around the world!

The STAFF, by far are exceptional!  The food, OH MY GAWD, the experiences - cow miking, picnic in the meadow,  breakfast on the raft,  SO FIRST CLASS,  I just can't stop talking about our visit to friends and family!

This magical place is perfect for anyone that lives a hectic life, and wants to escape to a magical, relaxing place.  

Hacienda de San Antonio, you all are doing great things there! Please don't ever change! 

Still dreaming of this vacation! 

this is a gorgeous property.  However, it is was not a good fit for us.  The temperature was in the 80's and none of the rooms have AC and enormous amounts of mosquitos made it impossible to open windows (no screens).  There is one restaurant with a very limited menu; you can not find another place to eat unless you drive at least one hour.  After enjoying  a beautiful walk, horse back riding and seeing the lake where you can paddle board we had nothing to do.  Great if you want to relax, read and soak up nature for the entire time as there is nothing else to do or see.

beautiful but...

This is a slice of heaven in an area of Mexico, most international travellers probably wouldn't think about and would really miss out. I haven't written a review in many years and am writing this lengthy one for families who think naturally of coastline first but obviously could help anyone. It's what I would call the perfect blend of everything that they have pulled off in such a way that it is hard to put in words and are onto something really special. We have stayed at 5-star hotels and are familiar with the service one expects in this class. However, as another reviewer stated, this is a class of its own. It feels like their goal is to make you feel like you are personal friends of the owners, and this is your Mexican estate and ranch to enjoy as you wish. This is likely due to the small nature, how the staff treat you, and how it's set up: no bills for meals/ drinks, no tipping, and they just know who you are (it's all settled at the end). It's also one of the rare places where cleaning service felt like three times a day, and they just seemed to know when we left the room for their opportunity (i.e. they seemingly cleaned around the guest's whims and not in a strict room by room fashion). The Hacienda has the unique ability to marry old-world country elegance without an ounce of stuffiness. There are so many rooms you never have to see anyone but it doesn't feel oddly empty either: almost like your own private villa. The grounds and common rooms have artwork and stunning objects, yet you can dress for hiking as equally as you can dress up fancy, and both feel entirely appropriate anywhere, meals included. 

You could easily never leave the main house area and bask in the view of the volcano and immediate activities like tennis, the stunning pool area etc., but it would be a shame because the wider grounds of the estate and ranch have hidden treasures, gorgeous scenery and experiences that appeal to a vast range of ages. It is also a full working ranch and supplies most of the food, coffee and cheese to all items on the menus. Travelling with our 16-year-old son (our older son couldn't join) meant we tried many of the activities (which are all private), and we were left often with who would have ever come up with this amazing idea. For instance, we travelled out on a 10x20ft bamboo raft with a recessed built-in bamboo table and daybed to enjoy breakfast on a lake. We climbed a hill to a small covered daybed pavilion overlooking the region, where they make on-site your cocktail of choice as you relax to watch the sunset and the moon rise. Cow milking seemed like it would be just that, but instead, it includes a temporary table set up with some toast, on-property-made butter, and chocolate ready for your fresh chocolate milk. It wasn't a "yawn" mom, you made me milk a cow at 7am, and this is just for young kids; instead, it ventured into 'this is cool', and the view was stunning. But the Hacienda doesn't just have the serene, unique experiences or tours of the ranch. How many places do you travel to on the property itself, that have sky diving (amazing experience!) or hot air ballooning (we didn't do but is very popular)? And we have done ATV'ing in the past with our sons, but the hour-long experience travelling the estates own dirt roads with a staff member to a waterfall, around the lakes, etc., on the state of the art shock absorbing machines meant even us adults enjoyed the experience. None of these adrenaline activities felt out of place in feeling either, if that can make any sense. So our son was thrilled, and we were thrilled. It really becomes a catered overall experience that appeals to your individual family. And lastly, for those of us coming internationally, it doesn't feel like you have come to an English-speaking resort isolated from the community (Four Seasons Costa Rica comes to mind). Perhaps it's because it's also a working ranch that it feels different, or that the beautiful town of Comala is close, but it comes back to that perfect blend for me that they have nailed. English speaking is readily available when needed but not overwhelming in feeling, which is nice. It can feel more authentic as you sometimes bumble your way through things. 

My final comment as you consider this more unusual location, is that it's not going to be the least expensive stay if you do many of the enriching activities (as is entirely normal in the class), but if you can put the price tags out of your mind, it will be a wonderful memorable tailor-made experience suitable and fun for any age or generation. We stayed four nights to hit the beach at the sister property, and it was a good amount of time for an active family. However, as we drove away from the Hacienda, my husband said there are not many places where he genuinely feels sad saying goodbye, but this was one, and my son concurred.

Incredible family experience - a perfect blend

We stayed here for the weekend, the Hacienda is absolutely beautiful an they have taken care of every detail in the rooms and public spaces of the whole place, gardens and fountains are unbelievable. We appreciated the silence and the solitude in the pool and other public spaces. 

Amenities were amazing. 

The staff is very friendly, attentive all the time and service is superb. Gaby and Audi were really important for us in our stay. 

Two things I think should be improved: 
1. Meals were good but but not delicious, the food should be at the level of the place. This must definitely improve. 
2. I was not that happy with the improvised room set up for massages as there is not a formal spa, but the price is as you're paying a spa 

The transportation requires patience if you arrive to Manzanillo as can take close to 3 hours. However, the car and the driver was absolutely perfect. 

I think this is a once in a lifetime stay but it worth it. 

Beautiful hacienda!

Absolutely amazing hotel. I have been looking at staying in this hotel for a long time and thus had high expectations. All my expectations were met and I think food was even better then expected. One of the best hotels ever and i hope to return one day.

One of the best hotels I have ever stayed at

We had a terrible experience in this hotel this past weekend.  The owner of the hacienda was there and had some personal guests.  Unsure if they were even paying for their stay.  Our room was $1,800 dlls per night.  Stayed there a total of 4 nights.  We traveled all over the world with our kids, Africa, Europe, South America and NEVER had any issue with them on the hotel we stayed.  I always make sure the hotels we stayed are child friendly as I did with Hacienda San Antonio.  On our last night, one of the owners guest was extremely rude to my family.  There was a concert on the chapel, not a mass, not a private event ( I asked).  This guest stood up in the middle of the concert and pointed us to the door, in front of everybody.  He then proceeded to show us the door until we left.  My kids were NOT misbehaving, they talking here and there in a quiet voice.  I had every right to be in the property as I am a paying customer but it seemed that the owners guests were more important than us paying guests.  The manager of the hotel named Felip did not apologize to us nor the owner which should have been the indicated person.  I had one employee come to our room to offer us dinner on the house.  But no apology.  I was very disappointed.  It seemed everyone was scared as it was the owners guest.  BUT I ask..is this a family hacienda or a BUSINESS???? will not go back and would not recommend it.  Unless, of course you know the owner.

PERSONAL USE OR BUSINESS?

Just finished my third visit to the property, and it still amazes. Simply: World Class.
For the first time I just noticed there are no televisions on the property, would be like putting neon lights on the Vatican. As it is, Hacienda is the best place on the planet to read a book.
Go for at least long enough to do a property tour, it is well worth it. The food is excellent, unique and fresh. 
The place is not inexpensive, but still a great value. Where do you put a price tag on a lifetime memory?

"Billionaire's House" says it all

There seems little point in writing a review about a 5* hotel and saying it was amazing - you would expect it to be. The Hacienda San Antonio however is in a class of its own -  not so much a hotel as a luxury private residence - which is indeed what it is - the owner decamps when guests are present. What a privilege to be a guest in a residence visited by the likes of Henry Kissinger and other notable dignitaries.  We visited just before Xmas and had the place to ourselves. The hacienda is reckoned to be the nicest on Latin America and was voted second best hotel in Mexico by Condé Nast (the first being its sister hotel Cuixmala) The grounds are stunning - formal gardens with water features leading down to a vast swimming pool and well maintained tennis court - all immaculately maintained. Adjoining the hacienda is the ranch - 4,500 acres of coffee plantations, hills and grazing land for cattle and horses. Discrete staff are on hand at every turn and the service is impeccable. We enjoyed a horse ride that ended in an amazing picnic on the edge of a lake with the volcano in the background. An early morning start permitted us to enjoy a balloon ride amongst the lush vegetation of the volcanic hills. The hacienda is under new management with a charming manager who has plans to make it even better. You’ll need a fairly deep pocket to stay here and the activities are not cheap but it will provide you with life long memories. Book as soon as you can- you won’t regret it for a minute.
