Hacienda San Gabriel de las Palmas

I love this hotel. I think it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. The grounds are gorgeous and the staff is kind and helpful. The major complaint I have is the policy that the price of each room only includes one child. The first line of the hotel description on Expedia says “This family-friendly hotel...” A hotel Is not family friendly if only one child is included in the price and then you have to pay $30 per child after that. I have never heard of a hotel for families that assumes you only have one child. They actually suggested that my husband and I split up into two different rooms with the children because we have four children. My children are all under the age of 8 and we can all easily fit in one of the rooms here. In fact, on Expedia you can’t even get a room here if you put 2 adults and 2 children in the search. It tells you that it exceeds the maximum number of guests. Expedia needs to change the family friendly wording because as gorgeous as this place is, I don’t feel that they actually want families to stay here. We were told there was horseback riding and when we went to ask, they said it was only for adults. This is the perfect place for adults or adults who only have one child. I want to come again, but I hate having to pay extra.
