Location: Other San Miguel de Allende Properties, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Central Mexico, Mexico (San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuato, near Dolores Hidalgo)
Accommodations: Hacienda, 11 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 10+ Baths (Sleeps 22-30)
This huge, old ex-hacienda midway between San Miguel de Allende and Guanajuato, is situated outside Dolores Hidalgo in a small, safe, friendly village. Once a presidio, or fort, along the silver trail in 1567, it became a hacienda in the 1700's. Walls are meter- thick adobe. The haciendas were the castles of Mexico. Although the term 'hacienda' is used incorrectly by many home owners to describe their new replica Spanish-style homes, this is an authentic 450 year old hacienda that at one time owned nearly a million acres.
The hacienda is beautiful, with rustic elegance, furnished with colonial antiques and local artisan pieces, private, with 18 full-time staff, including cooks, maids, gardeners, bilingual guest services concierge, manager, and stable/pool personnel. There are 11 beautiful bedroom suites, with satellite t.v and high-speed internet, hot-and-cold water dispensers, sitting area, private terraces, propane fireplaces, and beautiful views of the Sierra Madres. The suites feature luxurious bedding with high thread-count linens and feather beds, plus down duvets. There is an additional owners suite which may be available (please inquire), and give you a total of 12 bedrooms.
All meals are included in your rental. Love food??? We are well-known for our wonderful meals. Our cooks have studied with the likes of Rick Bayless and Diana Kennedy. They serve a wonderful menu, a beautiful balance of elegance and down-home that you will never forget.
The pool is heated with a dozen solar panels to assure year-round comfort. The hacienda is approximately 50 rooms, more than 40,000 sq. ft. under roof, with ten walled-in private acres. There are gardens and enormous porches, and a large events area with fountain for special celebrations, or just relaxing and enjoying the view.
Child-friendly. Smoking outdoors, please.
Step out your door and onto the silver trail. This is an Ideal location for visiting a different colonial town each day, or simply enjoying the best of Mexico's Bajio region. Start your day with a cup of Chiapas-grown coffe, then head for a work-out in your private commercial 16- peice Cybex gym, including elliptical trainer and treadmill.
You can shop for beautiful talavera pottery in Dolores Hidalgo, shop for EVERYTHING in San Miguel, while you enjoy gourmet restaurants, hot springs, and golf. Wander the charming streets and cobbled alleys of Guanajuato. Practice your soccer skills, or invite the locals for a friendly game of volleyball on your private sand court. Spend a few hours riding your horses down to the river, and watch the eagles.
Then return home to our in-house spa for a massage from one of six private massage therapists, offering spa treatments such as massage, reflexology, hot-stone, or facials (Massages start at $20/hour!). Chauffeur available for reasonable fee, also very knowledgeable bilingual guide for trail rides (horse, car, or mountain bike,) and seeing historic silver trail locations that most tourists NEVER see. All meals, horses and mountain bikes are complimentary, and included with your rental.
