San Felipe del Agua, where Casa Union is situated, used to be an independent little village just outside the city of Oaxaca. Nowadays San Felipe is a beautiful quiet, residential area. Casa Union is 7 minutes walking from the village’s church, built around 1650, next to the main square. Here you’ll find an occasional little market, some local groceries and a very peaceful and friendly atmosphere. From Casa Union it is a 3 minutes walk to the bus stop, from where the bus brings you to downtown Oaxaca in just 15 minutes.

Further details for this holiday villa rental in Oaxaca City, Mexico

What to expect?: Look forward to enjoying a panoramic view of the neighboring mountains from the living room, the main bedroom, from the garden, and most impressively from the roof top terrace.

In and around the house: Casa Union is a new, light and clean house surrounded by a big garden of +600 square meters / 6500 square feet. It is situated in the nicest part of Oaxaca, San Felipe del Agua. Both, the house and our garden look out over the valley and mountains. The two levels of the Casa Union have a total surface of 200 square meters / 2000+ square feet. The house is light and spacey with a wide living with a dining section, a fully equipped kitchen, 4 comfortable and light double bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and an extra toilet. In the beautiful garden mango, banana, orange, lemon and avocado trees are growing next to the cactus area, the flambojan and many other beautiful local plants. Your central place will probably be garage’s roof terrace offering space, sun and/or shadow and a beautiful view on both, the mountains and the garden. A ping pong table provides an opportunity for some physical activity and peaceful competition. The view of the house and garden are oriented towards the valley.

The region: The state of Oaxaca has peaks almost 10,000 feet (more than 3,000 meters) high, caverns among the deepest in the world, virgin beaches, hidden jungles, and luminous valleys that house populations where, as a crucible, cultures of all people who once lived in its midst come together. The City Oaxaca, the State Capital, declared Humanity’s Cultural Patrimony by UNESCO, owes its fame to the beauty and harmony of its architecture, the richness of its cultural traditions, the wide variety of its typical foods, and its soft temperate climate, spring-like throughout the year. San Felipe de Agua San Felipe del Agua, where Casa Union is situated, used to be an independent little village just outside of the city of Oaxaca. Nowadays, San Felipe is a beautiful quiet, residential area. Casa Union is 7 minutes walking from the village’s church, built around 1650, next to the main square.

Ideal and Affordable House in Oaxaca

Jeffry Houston, TX
Review Submitted: August 17, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
I was at Casa Union in December of 2008. It is such a great place. I would recommend it to anyone. The price is so reasonable for everything you get. Four bedrooms, living room, dining area, full kitchen and some of the best views in all of Oaxaca. It's located in San Felipe del Agua, a beautiful, historic village with it's own 17th century, lime green limestone church, cobblestone streets and local market. San Felipe is a suburb of Oaxaca City, a short distance from Oaxaca's stunning historic downtown area.

The most memorable part for me was a party I threw there. Two bands played in the beautiful garden, the food was set up on the outdoor brick patio and the outdoor terrace provided the perfect place to view the moon rise from behind Cerro San Felipe, one of the tallest mountains in Oaxaca, which is one of the prettiest and most interesting places I have ever visited. After the formal music was over we went inside for a music jam and a bit of home-grown mezcal. It is something that will stay with me the remainder of my life.

The place is clean, the area is completely safe, regardless of the misinformation you hear on the news, and the price is very reasonable for one person or couple and quite inexpensive for 2 or more couples. The management is also very friendly and helpful and can give you advice on what to do, where to visit, where to eat and the best places to find Oaxaca's world-famous arts and crafts.

It's truly a great place. I look forward to returning soon.

One of the best places

Review Submitted: March 2, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2008
We have stayed at Casa Union several times, with friends and family. It is comfortable, roomy and has everything needed for a relaxing holiday. The village of San Felipe offers convenient, quick access to Oaxaca city and all the surrounding villages with their arts and crafts, great food, wonderful markets. The view from the house and yard is wonderful, the patio is perfect for reading, casual meals and bird watching. And having your own kitchen means you can try all the great fruits, vegetables and Oaxaca cheese you will see in the markets. If you pick the right time of year you might find fresh fruit waiting on the trees in the yard.

Excellent value, terrific host;great for 3 couples

spyder3010 Port Orchard, WA, US
Review Submitted: November 11, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
This house is in excellent condition (by local standards), is very clean, and provides comfort for 3 (maybe 4) couples or a large family. The Dutch owner, Henning, sends all the info on the house before you arrive, and his local manager, Blanca, is also friendly and helpful. Casa Union is at the urban edge and looks across a large agricultural valley. We prepared several meals -- including tortillas from a neighbor's daily production -- and enjoyed the terrace for a great evening meal. It is about a 10-minute walk up a hill to access the bus/taxi route and then another 10-minutes to the zocalo (once you get your ride -- during festivals, service is irregular). There are no near-by restaurants or groceries.

We found this house to work very well for three, "mature" couples visiting for Guelaguetza and seeing as much as we could during our six day stay. As everywhere in Mexico, we found the people in Oaxaca to be warm, friendly, and generally oblivious to our presence. Highlights of the trip were the tianguis in Tlacolula, Monte Alban and our 13-hour day at the Seasons of My Heart cooking school in Etla.

Finally, we would recommend Casa Union to anyone looking for a rental house as an alternative to a hotel or apartment.

(Note: We don't recommend travel by second class bus from the terminal by the Abastos Market -- it's impossible to know if you will get seating on any bus until, after a long wait for departure, the bus is actually loaded. There seems to be no rhyme nor reason to who finally gets seated -- but, watching the repeated loading/unloading of passengers, livestock, and goods to get the manifest finalized is both amusing and humorous if you don't have a schedule to keep.)
