We capped off our incredible run of amazing resorts on the Costalegre with a few blissful days in the lap of luxury at Hacienda San Angel in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Hey if it was good enough for Richard Burton it’s good enough for us.

The hotel exists in a building that was the home of actor Richard Burton (with one of his non-Elizabeth Taylor wives). It’s been meticulously and amazingly restored and renovated into an art and antiques filled haven where every detail has been attended to with style and elegance.
