Photos and Description of this San Miguel de Allende holiday Hs:3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, sleeps 6/ Apt. 1 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom, sleeps 2

Truly one of San Miguel's finest homes, Casa Pina is an authentic old colonial furnished in original antiques. Though just a block from the center of town, convenient to everything, it is quiet and peaceful. The south-facing outdoor living/dining room combination, filled with winter sunlight yet shady in summer, is popular with everyone who stays here. In the summer the area is cool and breezy, as the sun is further north in the sky and doesn't shine into the sitting area. For al fresco dining, there's also an outside table in the rear patio. This outstanding colonial residence will give you a taste of luxury living, San Miguel style. Pass through the foliage-framed entryway, cross the stone patio, and into the main floor dining room. Step down into the formal living room with high ceilings and walls lined with colonial Mexican paintings. The warm glow of antique furnishings and a wood-burning fireplace welcome you, and you'll understand the name of this home, Casa Pina.

Further details for this holiday rental in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico

The three widely-separated bedrooms provide privacy and restful sleeping areas. Over the living/dining room, the master bedroom, with king-sized bed, two walk-in closets and two bathrooms (one with shower and one with tub and separate shower and private outdoor terrace) provide the guests with total comfort and space. A bank of south facing windows keep the room toasty warm in the winter months. The second bedroom, in a separate building, has twin beds, fireplace, bath with shower, and French doors giving out onto the rear patio. The third bedroom, upstairs over the second bedroom, has a double bed and bath with shower, and a small balcony overlooking the main central patio.

The spacious, but comfortable home is staffed by a FULL TIME COOK to shop and prepare local delicacies for you and a HOUSE KEEPER/ LAUNDRESS. A gardener comes several times a week to tend the banks of flowering plants and vines that grace the patios, outside sitting areas, and terraces. In addition, there is a professional, English-speaking manager to call in case anything goes wrong. Everything is provided to enable you and your family or friends to enjoy a pampered vacation. This lovely home is only a block from the 'Jardin' (central plaza) An easy flat walk to the 'Jardin' and then steps from dozens of wonderful restaurants and interesting shops. Church bells and the splashing of the antique fountain in the courtyard are all you'll hear from the covered open-air living/dining room, everybody's favorite location. Fireplaces are found in front of comfortable couches both inside and outside, as well as in the master and second bedrooms.

For the occasional winter cold snap, there are gas heaters in several fireplaces, as well as a powerful gas heater in the indoor living/dining room. A separate apartment (only for rent in conjunction with the main house, if you need more space) contains a tiny living/dining/kitchen area with half bath at the entry level, a bedroom with double bed, and bath with shower at the second level. Off the stairway is a terrace with magnificent views of the downtown church, La Parroquia. The apartment is entered from the entry hall, separated from the main house by a wrought iron gate that can be locked. It is not rented separately from the main house, however, used from time to time by the owner. Come experience perfect regal living at its best!

Other Activities: hot springs, bridge, arts & crafts

Review Submitted: May 10, 2004 Date of Stay: May 2004
My family and I have stayed in Casa Pina twice in the last few years; the house and the location are remarkable. We have stayed in other homes in San Miguel but the house on Aldama has been the best, it makes the SMA experience even more memorable.

Comment Text: We have been coming to San Miguel since 1991, and five years ago found ourselves in Casa Pina. What luck! A spacious house, comfortable and beautifully appointed, it is in a superb location - a 3-minute walk to Centro, the heart of this lovely town. The staff includes an accomplished cook and a cheerful maid, both eager to please, and a laconic but very skillful gardener who talks only to the flowers. It all adds up to excellent service - we feel they are part of our family. Casa Pina affords the highest level of comfort and convenience, and we intend to keep returning!
