Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina, South America

Accommodations:  Condominium, 2 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 3)

Charming, luxury apartment (85 square meters) at the top of a building in Palermo - a quiet oasis in the center of a vibrant, world-class city. The sunny, corner layout in the tree-tops with lovely balcony and terrace allow for wonderful light and ample room. Modern furnishings and original artwork provide a charming decor.

The apartment is located on the 4th and 5th floors, the top of the building (which has an elevator), in a very quiet, tranquil and safe area just off Avenida del Libertador in the heart of Buenos Aires. World class restaurants, cafes, banks, and grocery stores are all in the neighborhood. The subway is a short (4 blocks) walk away. It is only 3 - 4 blocks away from the U.S. Ambassador’s residence and the U. S. Embassy and just one block away from the parks on Libertador. It is very close to the restaurants and shops of Palermo Soho and Palermo Hollywood, to MALBA and other museums, the race track and a short distance to Recoleta. The apartment is also only 3 - 4 blocks from La Rural, the Belle Epoque showgrounds and modern exhibition hall of the La Rural Society. Our favorite time there is the annual - since 1886 - livestock and farming show in late July and early August. (See photos below)

The main bedroom has a king-sized bed; the upstairs study/bedroom has a twin bed. The apartment has been completely remodeled; the kitchen is fully equipped and includes a microwave oven. The apartment has two full bathrooms as well as a half bath for guests. There are AC units in the living room and both bedrooms and a ceiling fan in the main bedroom. All the rooms open to either the balcony or the roof-top terrace. The apartment has broadband internet access and wifi. The atmosphere is private, elegant and serene. (In the photo of the building, the apartment is on the top 2 floors surrounded by plants.)

THERE IS A LIMIT OF 3 PERSONS FOR THIS APARTMENT.

  • My husband and I just returned from a week in this beautiful apartment. The location was perfect--in Palermo, close to Ave. Libertador so that commuting anywhere in the city was easy, but amazingly quiet at night. The neighborhood is exactly that-- a neighborhood, with small grocery stores, laundries, restaurants, etc. The flat is also very close to the wonderful parks in Palermo, where we used to jog in the morning (along with many BA locals). The flat itself is perfect for two, and has everything we needed. The owners are extremely helpful and accommodating. We definitely plan to return for another visit.

  • What a relief to arrive after a long trip at this wonderful place. We were immediately captivated by the light streaming through the large windows and French doors; the beauty and elegance of the furnishings, polished wood floors, marble surfaces, as well as the layout of the apartment. Because the building is situated on a corner, the living room has windows on two sides, rare and special in a city apartment. Also, it opens onto the terrace which is partially shaded by tall trees, reaching up from the street, for an unusually pretty urban view. The main bedroom, with a comfortable king-sized bed, includes loads of room for storage in the several closets. It also opens out onto the terrace which is lined with well-groomed potted plants. The charming bedroom and study on the upper floor has its own terrace, with bench, table and chairs. The comfortable furnishings throughout have obviously been chosen with great care and with an artist's eye. The soft warm colors of the fabrics, the freshly painted walls and the many paintings by local artists all reflect a modern sophistication which we found restful and lovely. The owner met us at the building to hand over the keys. It was very easy to follow his directions and arrive at the door by legitimate taxi from the airport. The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils, cookware, and dishes so gleaming everything appeared to be brand new. Two short blocks away, there is a supermarket, easily navigated and well-stocked. We appreciated the steady flow of instant hot water and the luxury of three bathrooms. The window shades are attractive and all of them work. The quiet well-kept neighborhood offers many restaurant choices, a handy coffee shop, and easy access to services (ATM machine, laundry) and transportation. In the living room we found an inviting library of current books in English, novels and guidebooks, as well as a helpful basket full of maps and brochures. We really appreciated the bus maps that had been left for our use. The beautiful polished wood dining table was the perfect place to spread out guidebooks and plan each day. We appreciated the CD player, for trying out newly-purchased tango music, or listening to the CDs provided. Many other things were there for our comfort, including two umbrellas (in 10 days, it rained one morning.) Every question we could possibly have had was answered in the comprehensive and thoughtful info sheets which were emailed to us in advance of our visit. Packed with information about the area as well as the apartment, we found them very helpful. Our only regret is that because Buenos Aires is such a compelling city we didn’t spend as much time as we would have liked in this charming apartment.

  • We have stayed in VRBO housing in Provence, Wales, Prague and Budapest, and this Buenos Aires apartment beats them all! It is efficient, spotlessly clean, comfortable, quiet, and extremely well located. Many superb restaurants are close by, the finest parks in BA are within close walking distance, as is the race track. Bus and Metro (Subte) stops are convenient, and the neighborhood is pleasant for business and tourist visitors.
