CASA TRANQUILA: Stay in our beautiful, 2500 square foot, sunny home right in the center of the "Jewel of Colonial Mexico". We are located two blocks from the Jardin, the central square, in the Centro Historico part of town, set back from the street up a gated, private passage-way. After strolling the cobblestone streets, dining, or shopping for delightful Mexican arts and crafts, return to a secure oasis of beauty and tranquility.
As you enter our flower filled patio you are transported back to Old Mexico. Masses of bougainvillea, a grand old mesquite tree, and hundreds of plants and flowers greet you. And this is only the beginning.
From this lovely patio you enter our great kitchen, tiled in colonial earth tones with gorgeous floor tiles, polished over many years to a wonderful leather looking sheen. Adjoining the kitchen is a dining room, large enough to have dinner parties with old or new friends. The dining room overlooks the first floor patio.
The master bedroom and bath are downstairs. The master bedroom can also be accessed from the patio through its own private entrance. Wake up to flowers, sunlight, and the sound of birds. This bedroom has two hotel quality double beds, gas fireplace, cable TV, and sitting area. The adjoining bathroom is beautifully tiled with a huge bathtub and shower, and plenty of closet space. The guest bedroom is on the second floor and enjoys a spectacular view. It has it's own tiled bathroom with a shower.
From the dining room you walk up a staircase to our adjoining living rooms, and are greeted with spectacular views of the central part of town with its many wonderful church steeples as well as the western mountains in the distance. The living rooms are stocked with books, original art, oriental rugs, music and film libraries, a stereo, cable TV, DVD - all the comforts of home to make your stay enjoyable and relaxing.
The artist's studio, already stocked with easels, is on the second floor and hopefully will inspire you to paint, draw or simply take an art class at one of the two prestigious art schools that are within a short walk.
Whether you are having your morning coffee in the lovely patio or are on our roof-top cactus garden enjoying the 360 degree spectacular views, or sipping margaritas at sunset, you will feel the magic and charm of San Miguel in Casa Tranquila.
