A large group of friends, my wife and I stayed with our young children at both Hacienda Clemente Jacques and Casa San Clementito (a newer annex) for two nights. We found both houses to be exquisitely decorated in Mexican style, have fully equipped kitchens, and offer a fantastic view of the valley below.
We made excellent use of the large terrace, pools--one in each house--and large dining area at HCJ, where we all assembled on lush "equipales" (traditional Mexican chairs) for the day's meals. Truly, we had no reason to leave the premises for anything throughout the weekend.
We asked Patricia, the owner, to have her staff prepare most meals for us and they were extraordinarily well done and plentiful, in addition to the large range of menu options. (We especially recommend having a large BBQ with veggies & guacamole.) The salads and dressings were also particularly tasty. Everyone in our group raved about the food and pool-side snacks.
Finally, we found the prices of lodging and food, considering the quality of everything, to be extremely reasonable. Just recently, our friends asked us to please re-arrange a yearly stay at HCJ and CSC so we can "repeat the formula". The place is that good!

I came to the Tepoztlan/Cuernavaca area at the end of 2013 to scout out a place to rent for a month in 2014. Over three days, I saw several rental properties that didn't come close to the charm and natural splendor of this hacienda. By simply driving on to the long tree lined driveway and then walking into "la casa grande" you will instinctively sigh and begin to relax. The staff is very professional, knowledgable and understated. Never underfoot, never hovering. As far as meals go, let me say this: You won't find better traditional dishes or atmosphere in any fancy restaurants in the area. Early in the day Laidiana or Josefina will suggest menus to prepare for the day. Felipe, a jack of all trades, is an excellent griller. On the other hand, you may want to cook for yourself in the fully equipped kitchen. Right before dinner, Fransico will set a candle lit table with freshly cut flowers on the patio or inside the stone chapel. (Yes --- this property has it own chapel) He will also open and serve the wine of your choosing. I'm not exaggerating when I say that this place is truly traditional "Mexico lindo."
One last thing: For those of you who have to stay connected even in paradise, there is wi fi.
