Cinco Rodavento

The largest of three sibling boutique hotels sharing the Rodavento name in Valle de Bravo, this 28-room property sits about two hours from Mexico City in a colonial lakeside town that inspires the kind of loyalty people are slightly embarrassed to admit. Rooms lean into unfinished wood and forest green in a way that reads more considered than rustic. The all-day cantina downstairs has become a local fixture, which helps when paddleboarding or mountain biking leaves you needing something stronger than a snack.
