CasaPatio Hotel Boutique

Top choice in Santa Cruz


Out by the fourth anillo (ring), this boutique hotel is worth every boliviano. The rooms have a delicate, understated appeal, as well as quirky names such as the 'No se lo digas a nadie habitación matrimonial' ('Don't tell anybody matrimonial suite'). The owners are warm, welcoming hosts and the patio is exquisite. You'll need to take taxis into town.

A small dipping pool offers welcome relief from the summer heat, and the on-site restaurant serves healthy but tasty meals. Great sangria too!
