We love CASA AZUL, our home in San Miguel, and know you will too! It’s tastefully and comfortably furnished with quality furnishings, art, wonderful colors, lots of light, and designer touches throughout. Situated on a small, quiet street in the close-in neighborhood of Colonia San Antonio Norte, the house is a flat 10 minute walk to the Instituto Allende, an easy 15 minute walk to the famous Parroquia church/Jardin and close to several excellent language and art schools.

The decor can best be described as 'Morocco meets Mexico.' The house contains three roomy bedrooms, 3 fireplaces, a spacious, well-planned and completely stocked kitchen and a large living room/dining room with adjacent sunroom overlooking the garden, perfect for reading or relaxing. House comes with maid service 3 days a week, and a fully-equipped kitchen. An ultraviolet light and carbon filter system provides purified water for the house.

Outside is a tranquil enclosed garden with a fountain, lounge chair and two tables for outdoor dining. Upstairs is a roof deck with a panoramic view of the stunning Parroquia, the nearby hills and 4 other historic churches. The enclosed carport is available by prior arrangement for secure, off-street parking.

Three large and generously appointed bedrooms each feature new beds, large bathrooms, loads of closet space and highest quality linens and towels. Master bedroom suite has a boveda ceiling, queen-sized bed and fireplace, and an adjacent office/studio with a desk and high speed internet connection.

Master bath has a tub/shower and wonderful skylight. The fun and colorful 'casita' opens into the garden, and has a king-sized bed which can be converted into 2 twins, a huge bathroom, and a fireplace. The third bedroom has a queen-sized bed, built-in closets and a lovely view from the balcony.

  • We stayed at Casablanca the first week of September and LOVED it. There were 4 of us (2 couples) and we all felt that the house made our trip to San Miguel. It was beautifully decorated and comfortable. One morning, we did yoga on the rooftop deck and that was amazing. We made coffee every morning and had some margarita happy hours before we would venture out to dinner. The food in San Miguel is amazing. I would recommend El Correo (across from the post office) and La Capilla near the Jardin. We preferred being a few minutes out of Centro and we enjoyed the walk into town. The neighborhood felt completely safe and we never had a problem. The owner and the house manager were on top of everything and all the information you could need was well organized. We all would highly recommend staying at Casablanca if you're going to be visiting San Miguel.

  • We rented this house for a family vacation and stayed 8 days. We brought our two daughers ages 26 and 18. Casablanca is a lovely house with wonderful,comfortable spaces for the whole family. The bedroom were large and all had their own bathrooms. Very important with so many women in the house! The house stayed neat and clean, thanks to the housekeeper who came every other day and was very accomodating i.e. offered to do laundry. We enjoyed walking to the Centro, shopping at the nearby markets, buying fresh tortillas and sweet smelling pan dulce. We appreciated that the house was not in the busy Centro. It was fun to shop, eat dinner and hang-out there, but we liked coming back to our quiet neighborhood and welcoming house. We mainly ate breakfast at the house, but the kitchen was fully equipped and we could have happily cooked every meal if there weren't so many restaurants to sample and explore. Taxi's were cheap and plentiful. You can go anywhere in the city for $2US. Both daughters loved their experience and appreciated the video, cd and game selection provided by our hosts. The parents appreciated the enclosed calm of the patio--our favorite reading/breakfast place. The daughters liked hanging out a Mama Mia's--the parents recommend Don Quiqote and Harry's. We would definitely come back to Casablanca but would want to stay for much longer!

  • We rented this proprety for the week between Christmas and New Year's, and loved it! The house is as beautiful as it looks in the pictures, and the owners have covered everything. Good information was provided both before arrival and at the property; everything from how to light the heater to where to get groceries and restaurant recommendations was at hand. The kitchen was stocked with spices and other condiments, making it easy to prepare a meal if you, unlike us, manage to resist one of the many good and affordable restaurants. I was fond of the neighborhood. I would characterize it as slightly rough around the edges as compared with the polished centro, but in a wholly good way. It was comfortable, generally quiet, and always felt safe. Basic services (pharmacy, tortilla factories, bakery, corner shops, restaurants, juice stand, etc.) were all within a couple of blocks. The walk to the centro was, as advertised, about 15 minutes up a moderate hill (much less steep than many hills on the east side of town), and was reasonable to do a couple of times per day. We had a car and therefore appreciated the secure parking...most any destination (other than the centro itself) is reachable from this neighborhood without getting caught in the traffic of the centro. In brief, I'd happily return to this house on a future trip to San Miguel.
