Amazing views and comfy rooms
The hotel is perfectly situated for amazing lake views. The staff is friendly, breakfast was very tasty, and the rooms are comfy and cozy. The reason it's not a 5-star review is (1) they failed to service our room one of the three days we were there and (2) there were some condition issues of the hotel grounds - the hot tub was questionable at best and the dock on the lake was dangerously weathered. Despite that, I would recommend.

Fantastic location overlooking the lake and mountains, llovely interior and room, good breakfast, staff excellent. Awkward ( but very picturesque) access along steep very winding drive proved less problematic than we first thought, bearing in mind that the hotel had no restaurant, and was 3 km from the town. Minor fault - the fan in the jacuzzi didn’t work.

Amazing lake and mountain views, quiet
Beautiful properly next to the lake with large windows and simply amazing views to the lake and the mountains in the background. Large rooms. A quick drive to the Villa La Angostura town, even walkable as there's a pedestrian path next to the road. Simple but nice breakfast with amazing views.

Great site and service
Service was excellent. Especially Fernanda at the front desk, whose persistence paid off in tracking down my phone (lost in Vila Angoustura). Facilities are lovely, best of all is the quiet and beautiful lakeside location. Room was very nice, with a great view. Breakfast was great. Only slight flaw - cleanliness and attention to detail was sometimes a little lacking. The otherwise beautiful jacuzzi in our room was a bit dirty. And the pool looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while. Still overall I’d recommend it.

Spectacular Views
Our stay at the Don El Faro Boutique Hotel & Spa was wonderful. The hotel is on the lake and has the most incredible views over the water to the mountains. Breathtaking. The hotel is small and quiet - staff are friendly and welcoming. The breakfast is disappointing and unimaginative - there are few options and the hotel didn't cater for our specific requirement, we had to adjust to their options (not quite boutique). Still, none of this takes away from a wonderful experience in a beautiful location.
