Logo of Hacienda de los Santos


After a 15-year renovation, a collection of three Spanish Colonial Mansions including the town's sugar mill are impressively connected with stone walkways, brick passageways, tunnels and footbridges set amidst six lushly landscaped acres. A vast array of original artwork, antiques, Spanish Colonial art including santos, retablos and ex-votos meticulously grace the estates and add to the magical ambience. Thus, the name was created - Hacienda de los Santos (House of the Saints). Today, 25 guestrooms, suites, villas, La Dulce Vida Spa, dining rooms, cantina, four pools, fitness center, business center, and more are offered at the resort.

Hacienda Rehab
A plantation renaissance is transforming remote country estates into
luxury spas

Hacienda renaissance is well underway. One of the best is Hacienda de los Santos (rates from $325.00 with meals, tucked away in the Sierra Madre Occidental mountains of Northwestern Mexico, near the silver-rush city of Alamos. It’s a seven-acre 17th century estate that once included a sugar mill—now the resort’s spa, which is reached by crossing one of the property’s many stone paths and then up and over a bridge that spans an arroyo running through the property. The treatments can be given inside or on the semi-enclosed patio.The spa menu runs the gamut from standard massage to facial and body treatments .Especially good is the deep-tissue massage,which goes right for the spine and the muscles attached to it—certainly the most basic but also a most effective kind of treatment.

This past summer, the town of Alamos became one of 21 "Magical Pueblos," a list that includes places like Tequila in Jalisco state and San Miguel de Allende.

"...An enclave of Spanish Colonial architecture set in a lush landscape of pools, fountains, Moorish gateways and wildly decadent foliage... The pristine beauty of this isolated town in the Sierra Madre Occidental - feels almost surreal. Alamos shimmers in bas-relief like a luminous jewel set into foothills of green chenille

"A telltale sign that you have arrived at a true oasis is when the employees gently but firmly take charge of you."
