Why the Owner Chose Guanajuato
We love it here. The year round average temperature of 75 degrees is wonderful. The air is clean; it's peaceful and breathtaking and has such easy access to the romantic city of Guanajuato which we just love. It feels good waking up to sunshine everyday, and the Mexican people are really special. Living here is very uplifting.
