This is a low-key resort on the site of a former coffee-processing plant, with 20 colonial-style rooms with local textiles, plus a few cottages around a spreading amate tree. A terrace restaurant overlooks a fountain-fed pool on landscaped grounds leading down to the lakeshore – great views to enjoy with your meals.
