Hotel Plaza Santa Cruz

Middle Chile


Pass through the archway off the main square to enter this striking Spanish-colonial-inspired resort. Lush landscaping, a lagoon-style swimming pool, a classy vinoteca (wine cellar), a pair of gourmet restaurants (recommended and open to the public), a spa and, of course, the gleaming Casino Colchagua round out the offerings.

Guest rooms are large and impeccable, furnished with wooden beds from Peru and glowing lamps made by local artisans. We only wish the service was friendlier.
