As the beautiful decorative gate opens, it leads you down a slate walkway surrounded by colorful flowers and foliage. Set deeply off the street, the garden and fountain that greets you creates a nature sanctuary.

The large spacious kitchen and dining area spills out to the outdoor garden and dining patio.It is a perfect house for entertaining. This is a place to relax, enjoy good food, good wine and good conversation with friends traveling together, family, and interesting and creative people that you may meet in your exploration of San Miguel.
After a day filled with sightseeing, gallery hopping, shopping, and theater, relax in a luxurious jacuzzi surrounded by candles, music and the sounds of nature coming from the garden below. This house is a sanctuary from the activities that abound in San Miguel; a warm and inviting place to relax, and absorb the magic and mystery of this wonderful step back in time town.

Homeowner Response:
I was delighted to hear that Roberto decided after a 14 year career as a public defender to open his own law practice. He credits this in part to the atmosphere at Casa Ariel, the comfort, tranquility, and beauty of the house and of San Miguel afforded him the time to re-evaluate. To have such a meaningful and transformative experience in my house made me very happy.

The following is an email I received from one of my guests from Toronto, Canada. Ariel, We are back home(unfortunately) after a nice relaxing two weeks in San Miguel. My first task on getting home was to dig out snow that was about 18 inches deep on our driveway. We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Ariel. You have built a lovely house and we found it to be very comfortable. We never turned on the TV the whole time that we were there which tells you something about how relaxing we found our stay. Your housekeeper kept the place nice and clean and looked after us very well! We particularly enjoyed the roof where we could get a great view of the neighborhood which we found most interesting. As you mentioned in your "Welcome Letter" it gives you an appreciation of the Mexican culture. We got quite used to hearing the bells ringing at the beautiful local church. We were quite impressed with the friendliness of the Mexican people and had no concerns about venturing out at night apart from navigating the cobblestones. The location worked out very well, as we found that we could either walk to the centre of town or catch a taxi without any problems. We took day trips to Guanajuato and to Delores Hidalgo using a wonderful guide Luis Avarez (415 152-4008) His English is good and he took great pains to explain the significance and history of the various things that we saw. It made a difference to get someone who is so enthusiastic about helping you to understand his country. For our return to the airport we used a van driven by Julian Cartas (415 152-0079) - he was on time and got to Mexico City without any hassle. Many thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful house. Brian and Margaret Jamieson
