Casa Natalia

[TammyWright]

Time slows down at Casa Natalia. This gracious, European- style boutique hotel is a serene oasis in the heart of historic San Jose del Cabo.

Set in a secluded enclave of 39 palm trees, waterfalls and tropical flowers that echoes the spectacular natural beauty of the Baja Peninsula With its striking, contemporary architecture and 14 Deluxe Guest Rooms and 2 Spa Suites individually decorated with local artcraft, staying at Casa Natalia is like staying in an authentic Mexican home. From the moment you enter until the very moment you hesitate to leave. Please note that the property does not permit children under the age of 13.

I love this place! The food is SO amazing and the rooms are each gorgeous. The whole experience here is very luxurious. The church (the one if Tammy's pic) is less than one block away so if you're Catholic and getting married there this would be a lovely place for a reception. Nathalie, the owner has worked with Maye Cortinas the wedding coordinator before.

 

Each night you select what items you'd like for breakfast and it's delivered to your private patio each morning at the time you request. There's probably 5 courses (if you can eat that much).

 

She can help arrange a beach ceremony if you're interested but it would be off-sight of course. But the food is SO SO SO good!

that place looks so pretty- i would have really liked to have our wedding at a more "local" hotel- but that just wasnt an option with the size of our party (and how much our party like to party!)

I just sent in the deposit for this resort for our wedding, and Nathalia has been so great to work with! She is so quick to respond. I really wanted an intimate place where my family could all stay together, but still have privacy. We looking into many different venues in Mexico and the Carribbean, and couldn't make a decision on any of them. Wewere watching Travel Cafe on the Travel Channel and they were doing a feature on Cabo. One of the slots was about Casa Natalia. My fiancee and I looked at each other and knew it was where we wanted to stay. We are booking out the entire resort for 4 nights, and are expecting between 25- 40 guests. Nathalia has told me that she will help out with finding accommodations if our number increases anymore. If you book out the whole resort, rooms are reduced to $200 a night for double occupancy. Mike and I are both in the restaurant industry and it was the restaurant on the property that closed the deal for us! We are also working with a coordinator Blanca to plan our beach ceremony. The only downside of this property is that it is not on the beach, but I am not worried! Casa Nathalia just feels right for us.

Liza, you're going to LOVE the food (unless you've tried it already and know how good it is!). For people who are interested in learnign more check out:

We decided to go witht he Hilton for our wedding but loved this place so much we're going to do our Rehearsal Dinner here.

 

Did I mention that you get your own private hammock on your own private patio to lounge in? Plus if you do have your wedding with them and reserve the whole place (14 of 16 rooms to take over the hotel) they automitically upgrad ethe brdige/groom to a suite... which has it's own hot tub (I think) onthe balcony.

I have not been there, but I am SO excited to try the food! I have heard nothing but wonderful things!

What are the prices like for dinner? Reasonable?

[LIZAGEHL]

They have quoted me anywhere from $65 to $100 for 4 courses. This includes the wedding cake, but no alcohol. My FI is a chef, so the food is something that is really important to us. I know that he wants to have some imput with the menu. With a cocktail hour, I am thinking that we are going to end up spending between $120 and $165. I think that Natalie will work around any budget. She has been unbelievably accommodating. Have you booked your rehearsal dinner?

[gkashmira]

Maria, they are steps away from the church so it could be a good option for your rehearsal dinner. If you have a lot of people than the prices are around what Liza said but depending on what time of year you'll be there (high season vs. low) the prices could fluctuate.

 

If you're not havign a ton of people (i.e. lke a rehearsal dinner with 10 people or something) than you could even just have everyone order off the menu because while they're not cheap by any means the prices are pretty reasonable. margaritas are only $5! (not bad for a fancy hotel!)

[MARIAELM]

We tried to book them for our rehearsal but because we had 50+ people they wanted us to buy out the restaurant for $10,000 USD, which I thought was ridiculous (see message below). We went with Damiana for our rehearsal. However, I still want to try the food at Casa Natalia for just my FI and I during our honeymoon and/or recommend it to our guests.

Thank you so much for your interest in having your rehearsal dinner at

mi Cocina. Regarding your group, we would request a minimum of 10,000 USD

consumption for a group like your size, considering that you are using

the restaurant only. Please let me know if you would consider the buy out of Mi Cocina and I would be more than happy to send you information on our menus. Thank you and look forward to hearing from you! Until then...saludos!
