Absolutely the best!!!

The condo greatly exceeded our expectations because of the following: 1. Location - quiet area but close to downtown Lima by an inexpensive readily available cab as well as the Larco shopping center with many wonderful restaurants and first rate shopping. Add to this not a lot of road side traffic and a bordering park to jog, walk or just plan to stand at the edge and appreciate the pacific with incredible susets if you're lucky. Small bodegas are close by and a lot of restaurants are near. The main plaza of MIraflores along with craft shopping are no more than 10 to 12 minutes by cab. 2. Cleanliness and decoration - The condo was immaculate and very well decorated with just the right touches to make our stay memorable. We are a family of a 20 something daughter and a couple in our 60's. If you were a family of 2 younger children or 2 younger children plus an older child, this would be ideal. 3. Views - it had a world class view of the northern coast of LIma along with islands and an amazing view of surfers in the ocean with joggers on the park at all hours. 4. Safety - Both of "the girls" felt very safe in the park at night and there were many women strolling at all hours along with a 24 hour dooman watching the premises. 5. Ease of renting - We were immediately contacted and the rental was accomplised in a very easy, quick manner 6. I highly recommend being picked up at the airport when you land by the service offered by the owner. For $50 (US) it gets you through the commotion of the airport and finding a taxi as well as a thorough check out of the condo so you can start relaxing and enjoying it immediately. 7. I also recommend bringing binoculars as you'll want to look down on the surfers along with the activity of the park. Summary - A world class place in a wonderful location for a relaxing time in Lima to make your stay enjoyable. Who we are - We've traveled to 39 countries and usually take 8 to 12 vacations a year. This is our 5th time in South America and our 2nd time in Peru.

This is my second time in Lima and I have to say staying at this place made my vacation perfect!! They have everything they advertise in their website, the apartment is perfectly clean and the cleaning lady was a very sweet woman.   Cecilia was always very nice and attentive with my questions, she even call me when I arrived in Lima to make sure everything was fine. She even send me a list of restaurants to visit. Unlimited hot water at this apartment maid our stay so pleasant, because in Peru only hotels have unlimited hot water. Keep that in mind for your next trip.   Thanks Cecilia, we definitely are planning on coming back Merci beaucoup l'appartement est magnifique, un confort extra,je n'ai qu une hâte d'y retourner!!! Merci Cecilia

My family just returned from a wonderful trip to Peru. After visiting Puno and the Uros Islands, hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and spending time in an eco lodge in the Peruvian Jungle we ended our trip in LIma at Cecelia's beautiful apartment in Miraflores. It was just what we needed to reflect on all of our adventures.The apartment has all the amenities one would want, is within walking distance of great shops and restaurants and the view from the balcony cannot be beat! I loved sitting with tea in the morning and wine at night and just watch the waves lap up on the shore. We LOVED it and fell in love with Peru. We hope to return to stay for a longer time in this gorgeous apartment! Thank you Cecilia and to Marite for transportation from and to the airport!

We were completely thrilled with this condo located in Miraflores. We were met at the airport by the owner’s representative who was very kind and helpful. We were three older women traveling together, our flight arrived very late at night. We were appreciative to have the provided transportation scheduled and waiting for us. The view from the balcony is breathtakingly beautiful. The location is great, it's not far from Larcomar mall, grocery stores, markets, good restaurants, paragliding and other areas of interest. And, conveniently, a bodega is just steps around the corner. The owner is quick to respond to any questions, always kind and handled all transactions very professionally. We couldn't have asked for more. By all means, stay here!

The Best of Lima

We were scrambling to put together a last minute trip to Peru after our tour operator went bankrupt. When I contacted Cecilia about the condo, she instantly took care of the paperwork, arranged for our pickup and dropoff at the Lima airport, and recommended a fabulous tour guide (Peru Wonderful) who put together local tours tailored to our interests, all in two days. Without Cecilia's help, the trip would have been a disaster. The condo was wonderful, in a secure building overlooking the ocean and the nicest parks. Very comfortable kitchen and living areas, and very spacious - truly I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. The condo is a short walk or taxi ride to shopping and restaurants, and the owners provided many recommendations. Thanks for everything!

This is a wonderful place. The apartment is very beautiful with a great view to the ocean and pretty landscape. The staff in the building is very polite and helpful. It was a great experience for my family and I. The owners are wonderful, they even sent us a list of wonderful restaurants we could try and always answer every email and phone call immediately. We are very happy and will recommend this place to all our friends. Thank you so much Cecilia
