Welcome to the heart of San Miguel, the jewel in the colonial crown. Casa Laguna is a lovely retreat from the attraction and activity of El Centro, and yet, only eight short blocks to the vibrant heart, El Jardin. Located on the rise of the hill overlooking town, Casa Laguna is an easy walk down and a vigorous walk (or taxi) back. There is no need for a car, yet you have that quiet distance from the traffic and firecrackers in town.
Casa Laguna is a magnificent property, shared with two other homes in a green, wooded setting. A safe location within a stone-walled compound, it includes a naturalized, lagoon-shaped pool and a 17th Century chapel.
There are three bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, a large living room, gourmet kitchen/dining, and plentiful outdoor relaxation areas. You may enjoy your morning cuppa on the front porch, an afternoon nap in a hammock by the tranquil pool, and your sunset margarita on the Master bedroom terrace or rooftop entertainment area.
The interiors are Hacienda style, with soaring ceilings and antique wood beams. The large cantera fireplace takes the chill off winter mornings, and the bedroom fireplace also provides romantic comfort. The home is a haven of luxurious appointments and quiet corners,all with direct views to La Parroquia as well as the surrounding hillsides.
The first floor includes a grand entry and large sala, with all furnishings hand-crafted in Mexico.There is a television and DVD player within a cabinet in the living area and internet available if you bring your laptop. (High speed internet, and satellite TV included). There is also a powder room on this floor.
Step up to the kitchen and dining area and enjoy every gourmet accoutrement so that you may practice your cooking skills from the excellent courses offered in town! And feel free to drink from the tap as there is a state-of-the-art whole house water purification system.
On the second floor are the three bedrooms. Each of the bedrooms are provided with down comforters, fine linens, and lots of pillows. The master bedroom has a Moorish style fireplace, King-sized bed, outdoor terrace and a modern bath en suite. It has satellite TV and DVD player in an armoir. There is one twin bedroom (two individual beds) and one Queen size bedroom, these two sharing a Jack-and-Jill style full bath.
There is also a rooftop patio with seating for friends, or for stretching out for a siesta. Here you will enjoy the most magnificent views in all this historic city.
To care for your visit you may expect Alicia to come three times a week. She will attend to the laundry, dishwashing, and house maintenance so that you can relax and live like a local. Upon request she can prepare delicious Mexican meals.
Come, enjoy our little corner of heaven. You will find every comfort for two to six people. Leave the world behind and fall into the magic of San Miguel! |
