  Having stayed in San Miguel in previous years, we found Casa Galicia to be the most comfortable stay and we thoroughly enjoyed the artwork and unique furniture pieces that are found throughout the home. We spent many wonderful hours during the day and evening on the rooftop which gave not only a spectacular view of the Parroquia and city but also a flavor of the neighboring homes on the hillside. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything one needs to prepare meals which we did on occasion. Lidia, the housekeeper and cook, was very helpful with suggestions of herbs to take for colds and added a some spice to our stay with her delightful personality. We would like to especially note the very comfortable beds in all of the rooms which made our three-week stay a relaxed one. Casa Galicia is an ideal home for sharing couples and one we will highly recommend! One last note: we all experienced great cooperation from both San Miguel management and state-side management companies as well as the owner as we first settled in to the home and had a few questions. Gracias!

  We just got home from our week at Casa Galicia and had a fabulous time! The home was as beautiful and well maintained as the photos show. The beds were extremely comfortable, better than any hotel! It was a very pleasant surprise to have drinkable water in the home! The location was really convenient, just a 5-10 minute walk downhill to all the restaurants and attractions. We walked all over town and found it to be charming and completely safe. We enjoyed many wonderful restaurants. We rented a car and drove across Mexico to visit Las Pozas in Xilitla. It was a very easy trip. Renting a car was simple and affordable. You don't need a car in San Miguel, but I really wanted to see Las Pozas and we were amazed at the beautiful gardens and sculptures! I highly recommend Casa Galacia, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato and Xilitla! The area is beautiful and the people are very, very friendly! We had a blast!!!

  We stayed at the Casa Galicia for the whole month of December, and our grown sons joined us during Christmas week. The owner was helpful answering our questions before we arrived. We were all delighted with the house decor, and we thought it was every bit as pretty as the website depicted. The house was comfortable, and the floor plan was ideal for the five of us. The maid and gardner were very friendly and helpful. She did our laundry and kept the house clean. We had an ongoing problem with the fireplace. Each morning, we discovered the pilot light had gone out during the night, and we could not restart it. The gardner was able to restart it on the days that he came, and the management company came to restart it on other days; but eventually we needed a plumber to come repair it. Once repaired, it was great to have the fireplaces turned on in the mornings and evenings to chase away the chill. We had our Christmas dinner on the rooftop terrace and enjoyed the stunning view. Prior to Christmas, I took an art class, and our sons enjoyed swimming in nearby hot springs. We enjoyed being in San Miguel, and veryone had a marvelous and memorable stay at the Casa Galicia. I will definitely recommend the property to our friends and other family members.

  Owner response: So Sorry that this problem went on longer than it should have. Had I known that there was a problem I could have attended to it right away. One can not rely on the locals or staff reporting things to me as their sense of urgency is different than ours. We will change our pre rental fact sheet to include that as soon as a problem is noted that needs repair that it be communicated to us stateside via email or the vonage phone as well as to the local manager. We can only address things if we know they are occuring. Sounds like you had a good time otherwise.

  Fifth visit to SMA, first time on the east side of town. VRBO is definitely the way to go. The property was beautiful, comfortable, and a great location. I've stayed in SMA, as I said, five times, and this is the first time/place where EVERYTHING worked and was as I expected it to be. Only thing to be aware of is that the hot water, upon first use, takes at least five minutes to warm up, so don't bother calling anyone until you've given it a fair amount of time. Not knowing this, I e-mailed owner, and got an immediate response. Beds are luxurious, kitchen well-appointed, grounds kept up very nicely. Lidia, the maid, was kind and unobtrusive. We'd definitely return.

  Owner response: Thank you for the nice review. I thought I had the hot water problem taken care of but I will look into it again. The first time it goes on after the house being vacant it does take longer than later in the stay when it takes about 3 minutes to warm up but it does get hot. Not sure how to remedy this but I will look into it again.

  I have been to San Miguel de Allende before but had never stayed in such a beautiful house as Casa Galicia. Although our time there was short we could not have had a better place to stay. We had everything we needed at the house and the decorations are amazing. What we really liked was that the location of the house felt safe, unlike other houses where the access to the front gate is very complicated and taxies cannot pick you up right outside. Everything was just like on the descriptions and the pictures. We will definitely consider Casa Alicia again and thank the owners for their great cooperation to get everything settled for our stay. Most of the time what makes a trip fun and more enjoyable is having a good place to stay and Casa Galicia satisfied this requirement.

  Owner response: I am glad that Casa Galicia met your needs. Please let us know if there is anything we can do in the future on your next trip to SMA

  Casa Galicia was comfortable, beautifully decorated, and the view from the roof terrace was breathtaking-one of the best! The location is very convenient, although located up a steep hill. However, most homes in San Miguel are also located in a similar fashion. If you don't like walking, a cab is only a couple of dollars and easy to obtain. The Ramirez Market (Artisan Market) is at the bottom of the hill. We love to peruse this market for fabulous Mexican folk art, jewelry and clothing. The bedrooms have plenty of closets and great beds. I loved the boveda ceilings and beautiful furniture and art. Casa Galicia is a two story home with a roof terrace. The master and twin bedroom are on the second level with a beautiful queen bedroom on the first floor. The roof terrace is on the third level. Lydia the housekeeper was very nice. We hope to stay at Casa Galicia again.

  Owner response: Yes the house is on a steep hill but that is what affords it the great vistas. Atleast it is withinn walking distance and closer to town than balcones or Atascadero. I usually walk down and take a 30 peso ride back up because my belly is too full from all the great restaurants or I am loaded down with all my purchases. As you say San Miquel is loaded with these hills and that is part of its magic and charm.

  I just spent a month at Casa Galicia and enjoyed every minute. It is in a well located, safe area of town; close to the Mercado, Centro, a great gym, shopping. The maid and gardener were delightful and helpful. The gardener speaks English and was able to help me out with anything I needed. The home is well appointed and has anything you may need. I particularly loved the art, the interior courtyard, the rooftop and the luxurious bedding. Wonderful bath towels. The roof top deck is a delight and has great views. Uninterrupted Internet access throughout. Diversified Cable TV stations. Free Vonage is great. Anyone would love this house.

  Owner response: This review is from a renter who was a joy to work with from the moment we talked. More importantly she told me she stays in a differnet home in SMA every year so that she can have a different experience every time. This really gives credence to her review as she is a seasoned SMA visitor and home renter.

  Casa Galicia was one of our best vacation homes we have ever stayed. From the very moment we contacted the owner until we left Casa Galicia, everything went smoothly. We had some special requests and they were met without a problem. The pictures can not do justice to the true beauty of Casa Galicia. Excellent location, short walk to the market and Jardin where you can hire a taxi and explore the rest of SMA. Bring good walking shoes The kitchen is great, anything you will need to prepare a feast or a simple meal is provided. High quality linens and towels in all bedrooms and bahtrooms. Incredible sunset views from the roof top garden. Gardens and house are very well maintained. Will definitely stay again at Casa Galicia and recommend it to all my friends. If you are thinking of cooking you may want to take a taxi to Soriana Market, less than 10 minutes away where you will find fresh produce, seafood, wine and all the ingredients for a gourmet meal. We loved Mama Mia and Brunch at the Rosewood Hotel. Lunch at Hotel Matilda is a must. Check the Rosewood Hotel rooftop tapas bar. Awesome drinks and yummy churros with chocolate dipping. Lidia will help with cooking and she makes a delicious spanish rice.

  This is not a rental house, it is a well loved home. There are elegant details through out the house that make it not only beautiful, but in a word comfy. You feel like a guest in a lovely private home. We have stayed in rental houses all over the world, and I can say that this is the most homey and the most finely decorated. The only small thing I can say that is not positive is that in the master bed room you need to wait a minute or two for the hot water to kick in.
