Once Pablo Escobar's hacienda, this luxurious space was redesigned by its new owner, the art dealer Lio Malca. At the entrance are gigantic wooden doors hung with curtains made of hundreds of antique lace Mexican wedding dresses. There is nothing to fault here. From lunches of freshest ceviche to the bedrooms overlooking the quietest stretch of beach.
