    View from the cabin!

    We did not know what really to expect, although I had read all the reviews carefully for at least 10 places in the Valle de Guadalupe. So happy we landed on Contemplación! We want to commend Paco, the owner, for his attention to every detail in the design of the cabañas, each of which has a glorious view of the valley and mountains. And the pool has the most beautiful siting of all. The restaurant (and its wonderful staff) were a joy--we enjoyed the very good breakfast every day (included with the room) and a few other meals as well. It's nice to have a truly indoor restaurant when it is chilly or too hot--all delivered through the solar panels at the site. We wished the jacuzzi was a little warmer in the chilly winter, but the deep pool is excellent for some quick laps. We hope to return.

    Wow!!! First time in Valle and Contemplación guaranteed an amazing experience. I was a little nervous about coming to Mexico but There was minimal worry as long as you are cautious. The drive from Tijuana border to Valle was easy. Finding hotel using google maps easy- with a bit off roading. Contemplación gave us the most unique experience we could ever have in states. I have been to Napa, Temecula and Paso Robles and nothing compares. You get a unique campo experience with five star restaurants and wine. The hotel and service are five star. The room has you feeling like you are camping in a vineyard. We called reception at night for help and they came right away. The grounds are amazing and enjoyed my daily walks. The fire pits at night are the cherry on top. Enjoying a last minute drink with friends in a vineyard under the stars. I would highly recommend and would love to return.

    This review is primarily for the restaurant Savila Blanca at the Hotel Contemplación. The restaurant is located in the main building of the hotel, which consists of various cottages scattered on the hillside once you enter the hotel grounds. The restaurant has a modern feel with stunning views of the surrounding countryside. The restaurant offers a limited menu of local Baja med fare, including chamorro (pork shank), roasted marrow bones, jaiba (crab) burritos, and some assorted tacos. There is also a cheese platter, although their wine selection is limited. Everything is somewhat pricey ($15+), but the food was well prepared with fresh ingredients. The real star in my opinion are the craft beers they offer, prepared in house and infused with local fruits and herbs. The sage one is particularly good. As for the hotel itself, I did not stay here but according to staff it has a dynamic pricing structure with the cottages costing up to $500 per night. A staff member showed our party one of the loft-type cottages and they are spartanly decorated but have floor to ceiling views of the surrounding countryside. The bathrooms were elegant, with standalone tub and rainfall showers. The loft cottage had a king size bed on the top level and bunk beds on the lower level. There is no TV but the room had a projector setup to connect to your laptop for Netflix, etc. The hotel is definitely designed with retreat and solace in mind, but whether that's worth $500 a night seems unlikely, as there is nothing to do on the grounds and there are better and more luxurious hotels in the area for a lesser price. The views are definitely impressive, though.

    Stayed here for 2 nights in the 1 bedroom suite. The room had a living room, kitchenette, large bathroom, bedroom and 2 large decks with views of the valley. Check in was quick and the staff was amazing. The food at the restaurant was the best we've had in the area. You can get to most wineries and restaurants within 10-15 minutes. Would definitely stay again.

    Views are amazing! The staff was Covid-conscious and super friendly. Complimentary breakfast was amazing. There's a dirt road to get into Contemplacion and even with GPS we missed it. I docked 1 star because if it's a boutique and paying high dollars for 1 stay then I feel like the towels should be of better quality. They were on the rough side and it wasn't because of lack of fabric softener. Other than that, I would highly recommend.

    We travel constantly, and I have to say the upgraded room is one of our favorite places we have ever stayed... The area is up-and-coming, so there are a lot of gravel roads, but there is amazing food nearby such a Deckmans, which is very expensive, but well worth it and la cocina de doña Estella, which has been voted the best breakfast restaurant in the entire world... If you want to try out the restaurant, make sure you're there before 8 o'clock otherwise there will be about a mile of cars waiting... But back to the hotel, it was perfect in every way... Very romantic. The only negative is there are not very many food choices locally as Guadalupe valley is in a somewhat remote location, but that adds to the charm and does not take away anything from the experience... You just need to plan ahead and bring groceries to cook whatever you want to eat when you don't wanna go out... For the price, this place is well worth it, you won't regret it.

    Everything about this place is a lie. Starting with all the fake 5 star reviews made a month ago when this hotel wasn't even open. There is no local breakfast, as pictures show, only fruit and yogurt. The owner put the cheapest queen beds in every room and the whole room shakes when you walk around. Like it's about to fall over. The host told us we could not use toilet paper in the toilet and there was a trash can that we had to use. It was never emptied during our 2 day stay. The rooms are located at the top of a steep dirt road which I challenge anyone to drive up in a normal car. My lifted 4 x 4 had a hart time. When problems arose the management was unpleasant and rude. Clearly they have a thing or two to learn about hospitality. I do not recommend this place as they will not treat you properly and the owner Paco and his daughter on the property have no say at the end of the day, just some jerk called Anthony in Chula Vista who should go back to washing cars.

    Beautiful hotel customer service was exceptional from reception to waiters everyone is great ! The hotel was very cute with great views !

    Our first time in Valle and the hospitality of this B&B was one of the reasons why we had such a…read morefabulous time! It's a small and cozy place with 5 individual rooms and a cabin. The room itself was cozy and comfortable. I love how they show how the rooms was constructed with hay. They do have a small gas heater but due to the unique construction, the room was pretty warm. The place has that hacienda feel with the separate kitchen, water fountain in the middle and orange groves everywhere! I love that they have rosemary and lavender plants everywhere! They have handmade body wash and lotion, which I fell in love with so of course I had to buy some to take home. The owner and the workers are very friendly and information and welcoming. The breakfast provided was so fresh and yummy. The spread consisted of cheese, tomato and basil, olives, toast, and assorted homemade marmalade and jellies. They even make a mean ham and egg sandwich! This B&B was so wonderful that I can't wait to come back even though I'm tempted to stay at other places, I know I will definitely come back to this spot again and again!

The breakfast they provide in the morning is so delicious and reminded me of my Mexican grandmother morning breakfasts. The owner is sooo nice and welcoming!

    December 2024 I met a group of French in one of the wineries…read morewhom told us about this place. My husband who is French and I were travelling in an RV; the group we met said that the place did not seemed full and that we for sure could find lodging there. To get to this place was a bit of a challenge since the roads are not paved. Our RV is only 20 feet long; not a big one. When we arrived although we saw the place somewhat empty the person in the office said that there was absolutely no vacancy. Since we are not from Mexico, we were very concerned and worried about returning on that road; it was also dark. We would had paid for lodging or letting us just park our RV in the front as there was a lot of space. She was a bit rude and did not care for foreigners and their safety. We never would had wanted to park without paying; There was just so much parking even in the back of the office. We had to return on that dirt road in the dark. Luckily a very nice young lady helped us find a Campsite. We always made sure never to travel at night but it just got dark by 5. I don't know who the owner of this place is but if a foreigner is a bit lost or for their safety, they should be a little bit nicer.

    This is an adorable container hotel on a farm/vineyard in the rolling hills of Valle de Guadalupe…read more We loved every minute of our stay. The host was so sweet and made sure we were taken care of. We had the king room and it was perfect size for a family of 3. The decor is modern/Scandinavian. The units had heat and A/C. We didn't use the AC but the heat worked well. There were little touches throughout our room (that I will let you discover on your own!). Everything was well thought out. The bed was super comfortable and we loved the bedding! We had an amazing breakfast the next morning delivered to our room. They are super kid friendly - with a baby package, some animals on site and a playground! There is a sauna, spa, beer and fire pit one site. We want to come back with a bunch of friends some time!

    Yumano Restaurant @ Meglan Review…read more We rolled in hangry and ready to inhale anything. The ceviche saved our souls - fresh, tangy, and gone in sixty seconds. Then came the ribeye... and let's just say it was giving well-done sadness. They didn't ask how we wanted it cooked, so we ended up gnawing on steak that was tougher than our Monday mornings. Presentation was gorgeous though, so at least our eyes were fed. We also did the wine tasting with four wines. Honestly, they were just okay - but to be fair, we were so tired and hungry we probably could've sipped grape juice and called it a day. Overall, come for the ceviche and the views, skip the ribeye unless you're training your jaw, and maybe do the tasting when you're not on the brink of a hanger meltdown. Huevo Republic @ Meglan Review Breakfast is included... kinda. It's not anything off the menu - you get select items or they'll deduct $10 off your bill if you want to live your best brunch life. I got the chilaquiles and they were solid - the half order is what counts as "free," but it was enough to fuel my wine adventures for the day. The first morning was so slow, like waiting-for-your-crush-to-text-back slow, but day two was popping. They got my order wrong, but honestly, I was too hungry to care and just ate it anyway. ‍ Their green juice was surprisingly good, and my friend's hot cakes with fruit looked fluffy and happy - though I think the half order would've been plenty unless you're training for a carb marathon. Staff was sweet, just busy, so some things slipped through the cracks. But we rolled with it. Because at the end of the day... we were in Valle, drinking wine before noon. Life could be worse. Aroma @ Meglan Review My friend needed a jolt of coffee after her coffee... so take that as you will. The coffee itself was good, but the service could use a little caffeine boost too. My friend doesn't speak Spanish, and the barista pretended not to understand her until I ordered in Spanish - suddenly, everyone was bilingual. We grabbed her drinks, sat for a bit, and soaked in the pretty scenery before making the long trek back to our part of the property. Honestly, worth it for the views and decent brew - just make sure you come caffeinated enough to order your coffee for your coffee.

    This review is for the restaurant, Yumano, at the Maglén Resort…read more As I mentioned in my previous reviews, I had friends staying at this hotel for a wedding we were attending and decided to grab dinner at their hotel. This hotel has a few restaurants, coffee shop and winery/brewery, while my hotel had a restaurant but was closed the day we decided to try Yumano. I wanted something simple and easy since I joined my friends late, so I went for the margherita pizza. The server was friendly and checked in a couple times while I was there and bringing us new drinks. The pizza was delicious and gave me leftovers for the next day. Overall, an easy dining experience!
