A relic in an area rather short on them (due to devastating earthquakes), El Patio is a handsome hacienda that's been carefully modernized without abandoning its colonial style. Ship-shape rooms have a pleasant 'olde' vibe with beamed ceilings and bathtubs, but the real deal-swinger is the communal areas.
Enjoy the country-style lounge with its charred fireplace, the well-tended mature gardens, and the cobbled patio sprinkled with fountains, wagon wheels and the odd rocking chair creaking in the breeze.
