Fodor's Expert Review Vincci Selección La Plantación del Sur

Centering around an original banana plantation house, this modern hotel retains its colonial essence with spacious communal areas, teak furniture, and potted palms. Rooms are spacious in white and brown with gauzy canopy beds and generous bathrooms and closets. The grounds house six pools (two heated) and a spa where the circuit includes a dip in an authentic volcanic cave discovered during the hotel's construction. The villas for two overlook the sea and are designed for a romantic break.
